Message: [QUOTE="Alsacs, post: 2143733, member: 652"] We can't keep an all alumni coaching staff just because Duke does it. JB hasn't been the rainmaker since the 1980's. A rejuvenated JB would be a JB that actually does more than just close. We need that but we also need a good recruiter because we just lost our best recruiter in Hopkins. Autry has shown he can recruit. GMac has not. If GMac is JB's travel buddy and gets JB to go on the road more that will be good. JB isn't going to do the grind work. We just have to hope he will go to prospects games. If this hire is Griffin then we will go without a big man coach again and will just have another same old. We aren't Duke. Kentucky gets these guys because Calipari works his butt off. Bob Huggins wins a second round game in Buffalo and then spends that night in Ohio recruiting another kid. We need a good recruiter in this hire. JB can coach if he gets talent. [/QUOTE]
