It can seem like a very reasonable line of thought when your program is relatively consistently "bad" at tournaments, and while I know you've expressed that these teams might consider another STEM program that isn't FRC, the fact is that these teams vastly outnumber "good" teams. Looking up, the odds of picking versus being picked don't look good when you've never been on the picking side.

Now, personally, I believe that trying to be in control is preferable to resigning myself to being at the mercy of the serpentine draft gods, but I can see how a reasonable person would come to a different conclusion.
