Message: [QUOTE="OlsenRyan13, post: 1414291, member: 5234"] As the NBA finals just showed us, as well as the NCAA tournament this year, it is not the best players who win in basketball, but the best team. For this reason, I agree with the points above that there are often recruits who may be in the 50-70 range that may benefit your team more than someone who is in the 30s, for example. Basketball fans, myself included, often times become rankings slaves and fall for what the "experts" tell them. We can see examples of this in players like Moyer, Lydon, and Huerter, who are not thought of that highly by the recruiting gurus but still have the potential to boost a program significantly because of their skill set. It's all about the niche, not the numbers. [/QUOTE]
