Thanks for the lesson Pa.  I was in my teens then so wasn’t following recruiting closely.  Makes sense though especially since Marbury and Kenny Anderson were Kings of New York at the time.  Much more high profile.

But, either my point is being cleverly ignored  or it’s lost in translation.  Again, I’m talking IN live time and in the moment regarding Quade and going into this season.  I could care less what Quade did this year.  I’m well aware about SGA (don’t get me started about    his recruitment) also especially since he became one of my favorite players to watch in the country.  But back to Quade.  Regardless, they went after him very hard.  For the last time I’m talking going INTO this past season.  Not what Quade did there or what Frank did this season here.  Nobody can convince me that the plan WAS to have Frank be the starting PG when we were in the heat of the moment with the Quade recruitment.  After what transpired between Gillon and Frank, Green was being viewed as  a PG savior-type and there is no way in hell he wasn’t being promised the keys to the bus, IMO.

Again, things could’ve totally changed if he struggled and played like he did at UK.  Then Frank would be back in the circle of trust and have his chance.  Once Quade committed to UK it was damage control and all focus shifted to building Frank up since he’s the guy by default now.  By and large it worked out pretty well.  That doesn’t mean that this was the plan all along.
