Message: [QUOTE="hoopsupstate, post: 5227750, member: 13"] My point wasn’t to take the lowest rating but to show people that we have a tendency to overrate the kids we end up signing. Just look at JB’s best class ever. People need to be careful not to elevate players we recruit to an unreal level. I was showing that not everyone has White as a top 10-15 recruit. Everyone wants to feel good by saying he’s a five star player. So was Benny Williams and how did that work out? White is not an elite recruit. He’s a real good “prospect”. No one wants SU to be good more than me. I drive two hours from the Adirondacks all winter long. Is White a potential building block? Yes, but don’t make him out to be someone at Duke’s level. Duke and NC never offered one of the best players in Carolina. [/QUOTE]
