Message: [QUOTE="Jake, post: 2235189, member: 86"] There is no doubt that recruiting has dipped in the past couple years. I don't see it drastically improving in the near future, but I think we can still be successful. Recently JBs player comments have tended to follow (not always) a cycle where they are great players when the come to him, underachievers while playing for him and misguided when contemplating an early departure for the NBA. That's started to shift a bit with Lydon. However the damage and perception still exist. We tend to focus on how those comments affect the player-rightfully so- but the greater impact of those words falls on the AAU coaches. It's logical to assume some of those coaches don't like to see their players publicly undressed. [/QUOTE]
