Message: [QUOTE="reedny, post: 2308467, member: 1423"] My take is that our temporary recruiting slump stemmed from the NCAA investigation. That created doubts about JB's tenure, cast a pall over the program for a period of time, reduced our available scholarships and restricted our recruiting efforts. There were other factors as RF notes ... distractions (Olympics), disengagement, NBA defections, and certainly Hopkins decision to move elsewhere was significant. It did remove any doubt about who's team this is; but to me the NCAA investigation was the proximate cause of most of our recruiting problems. There are still going to be disappointments, but we're on a different level now. [/QUOTE]
