[QUOTE="Deleted member 631370, post: 1354675"] Yeah, I firmly believe that the only way out of this hole is recruiting. We can talk about how BU is some coaching savant all we want, but our talent level is not where it needs to be. I think the future is bright for Smith and Frazier, but reality is starting to set in -- Smith isn't the Jason Kidd that some hyped him to be. He's going to be a good one, but he's got a ways to go. The front court just isn't Big Ten caliber. Period. And we're going to need to do better than bring in projects and hope they develop over the course of 4 years. Liddell and Okoro are more important than Ayo for that very reason. But they're still two years away. We need a transfer badly. In general, we'll get there. But we aren't even remotely an NCAA tournament team at this point. The good news is, neither is Northwestern. [/QUOTE]
