Lying to recruits about their role feels like the smart move until Mark Smith transfers away after one year.
There is ZERO evidence of any of this outside of blowing a message board post out of proportion. Besides, MS was given every chance in the world in addition to BU speaking highly of him all year long.
The Ramey's are intelligent enough to watch game film of BU teams over the past 4 years to know essentially how things are going to flow. Would think if anything, the conversations are circling around how soon Ramey can get to the NBA.
