I do think it's realistic to wonder why we can't seem to get a Top 10 guy.  There's only 4 teams in the entire country who we have a legit recruiting disadvantage to and that's UK, KU, UNC and Duke.  Just speaking on a national scale and no other factors involved, that's it, those are the only schools that we would be at a disadvantage recruiting against yet we can't seal the deal on those guys.  I know we recruit to a system and recruit very, very well but it could be better and maybe should be a little better..  The fact we only play 7-8 at most hurts us here too with guys in the 25-75 range who may be on the fence.

That being said, I really, REALLY, like the trajectory of our recruiting and hope it continues under Hop because like you pointed out, last years class, in hindsight, was a monster.  Battle, Moyer, Chukwu (transfer) is looking to be another monster class as well.  These are NBA caliber guys who fit our system.  Can't ask for much more than that.
