I think a LOT of folks are setting themselves up for disappointment with all the talk of TOP 100 big men. They probably aren't coming. They will get offers from schools that have newer facilities, newer banners, recent tournament wins, and also have extremely loyal fans. As much as I hate to admit it, we are a tough sell at this point. Hopefully Whitman can secure the funds needed to upgrade our practice facilities, so we can compete with the OSU's and UK's of the world in that department. If you can't win recruits over by your play on the court, you have to blow them away off the court.
The way things have been going, getting Shannon to commit would be a huge development. Any 6'6"+ B1G caliber athlete we can get is going to help us tremendously. If we are fortunate enough to get him, do yourself a favor, and be excited. Any Top 100 recruit is a big win for this program.
