Good lord you have NO IDEA what the hell you are talking about.

Hop has been working on developing west coast contacts since the moment he stepped foot in Washington. So far he has landed THREE kids from Washington.

He had to re-recruit Nowell, who originally de-committed when Romar was fired. He landed the top PG in Seattle in Nate Pryor, and he landed another Seattle kid in Michael Carter III. And he's also been working on developing midwest contacts too. Last week he got a commitment from Ed Chang, a 6-7 combo forward from Nebraska, the top player in the state.

Hop also went down to the wire with Kevin Porter JR before KPJ chose USC, and he came close to getting J'Raan Brooks too (another WA kid who committed to USC).

His job is to win games. You win games with good players. He has close to 20 years worth of contacts on the East Coast. He'd be a complete idiot not to leverage those contacts. I know for a fact that his long term goal is to fill the roster primarily with West Cost kids, but he will continue to be a factor on the east coast for a long time. Book it.
