[QUOTE="Newman, post: 1210427, member: 528847"] He had one juco player and wasn't really in the running for anyone notable for the 2016 class. His 2015 class was ranked 14th, which is pretty good but not great for a class with 5 players. His 2014 class wasn't in the top 30. His 2013 class was 3rd and a great one indeed but half of those guys aren't even on the team. I think retention is a pretty big part of recruiting. The 2012 class wasn't in the top 30 either. He hasn't even recruited a top 100 shooting guard since 2010 so even if he landed some highly ranked classes, it doesn't mean much when it doesn't address key weaknesses. I think that alone makes him an overrated recruiter. [/QUOTE]
