2013-15 Recruiting update

[bnoro]

You are focusing on the three or four that we lost. Look at the recruits we have gotten, especially the last few years. To them, SU was obviously their dream school. You gotta look at both sides of the ledger. Also, how about kids that we didn't take where we might have been their dream school. All in all, I gotta believe that if a kids says we are one of his dream school it increases our chances.

In the cases of Hodge & Marbury it went beyond us being a theoretical dream school. The thinking was that they would be coming here & that is why losing them hurt so much. As for Lamb, yeah, I remember us being in the mix, but that was about it. I am nit sure that we were ever really the leader for him. And then you have the Wroten's of the world who had a dream school a week. Do you even bother to count them ?

Say what you will about Wroten but that kid can play. He was awesome for Washington when they played Duke at MSG.

He's not getting such glowing notices in Seattle. His A/TO ratio is upside down, and the Huskies have generally under-performed to this point.

Yeah i'm basing it off the one game I saw so I'm sure I'm not accurate at all haha.

We didn't offer Doron Lamb. He probably would have come here if we offered him.

Why was I thinking his AAU coach talked him into UK? Must be my old age

Due to transfer rules Dakari has to sit out for the whole year. The list is for players who the staff has seen during the H.S. season. Dakari is still in play but as I've mentioned in the past, Calipari is strongly connected to people close to him so it'll be a tough battle for SU to win.

Thanks.
