Pump the brakes. If they got Green, they more than likely get Bamba and Diallo with the possibility of adding another stud. If Lydon returned, in tandem with Battle and Thompson, they'd be a contender.
Washington could grow into a nice piece, but don't kid yourselves. Talent attracts talent. Landing Green would have done dividends for this program.
That might have been the case if Green committed early, but by the time he had made his decision that ship had been christianed the Titanic & was already at the bottom of the sea. If Green really believed those two would have followed then why go to UK when he had gotten so comfortable with our program? If anything, I would speculate the opposite is true & part of Green's delay and eventual decision may have had to do with his belief that nobody was going to follow him here.
