Message: [QUOTE="RF2044, post: 1430309, member: 40"] 6 guys in 40 years, because the vast majority of recruits we bring in ARE 4 stars or better. But its not as though some of the few unheralded guys we've recruited that weren't highly regarded didn't pan out as you suggested--several of them have. In fact, several of the guys I listed didn't just pan out--they are among the [U]top players in program history[/U], which kind of debunks your premise. And yes, I understand for every example of a Sherman Douglas there is a Sean Williams. I tend to trust the coaches eyes on this topic, as they do a good job of evaluating player potential. We're not talking about having to bring in a Greg Davis, for example, because we simply had noone else and had to swing for the fences in hopes we could catch lightning in a bottle. [/QUOTE]
