The situation with Huerter was moronic. JB was being stupidly cautious in the wake of the sanctions. Everyone was predicting we would win the NCAA appeal and get 11 scholarships instead of 10, which would have given us room to bring in Huerter. Plus, players transfer EVERY single year. And with Huerter coming in, a guy like Kaleb Joseph or Frank or others would have transferred out. It was so so dumb. Huerter had a fantastic spring and summer and wanted to reclass (I believe move back to his original class), and we should have just pulled the trigger considering what a hot prospect he was. Instead we asked him to prep for a year even though he was getting major program offers from schools like Maryland. It infuriated me at the time. You never know how things are gonna shake out with rosters an entire season in advance. You don’t let a guy like this slip through the cracks. And lo and behold, the next spring, we had a bunch of transfers after the season, got one scholarship back, and would have had plenty of room for Huerter. This is the kind of poor decision-making and dithering that sunk the program to historic lows.
