    2024 Recruiting

    I don't disagree that 4 years with L would have made him a better player. The problem is that I think his ceiling was a lot lower than anyone truly anticipated. Quan's recruitment was one of the first times I realized that the recruiting services didn't know a **** thing about the game of...

    2024 Recruiting

    When you recruit Philly, you get a certain kind of player. You are almost guaranteed to get a tough, gritty dude that knows how to play basketball. People don't understand the difference between athletes, and basketball players. Some athletes can play basketball, but a lot of basketball...

    These guys aren't from South Florida, so they are all trash and L should be ashamed that he recruited them. /s

    2024 Recruiting

    I think L would have made him better had he gotten 4 years with Quan, but let's be honest. Quan was an athlete pretending to play basketball, he had NO feel for the game, and unlike Jack McClinton, who had 10% of Quan's athletic ability he wasn't a guy that lived to be in the gym. I've always...

    And why should we care? Apparently, his method works and works **** well.

    2024 Recruiting

    Miami can and should be nationally relevant in all three major revenue sports, albeit for different reasons. In football, Miami has access to arguably the best local talent pool in the country and while it is competitive, a competent coach and evaluator can and will get more than enough talent...

    The media goes where the eyeballs are. Let's be honest, Miami basketball isn't nearly as important to the fanbase as football. Keep the following in mind, we have DIE HARD Miami football fans that actively dislike the basketball program and cheer for other collegiate programs in the sport...

    2024 Recruiting

    Most coaches like older guys. They are closer to their bodies maturing and in theory should be able to play immediately, you aren't waiting for them to come around as much. There's a reason why guys like Jay Wright have more rings than John Calipari, despite Cal having recruited like a beast...

    All you had to say was Gauchos, and I knew that field was loaded. Amazing how many future College and NBA stars have worn that Gauchos jersey...

    2024 Recruiting

    It's fluff. If Duke is in the hunt late, they are going there, period. I've seen this play out far too many times before. Now, if Miami manages to win a title next year or something, it could change, but local hoopers don't view Miami as a legitimate basketball program. They don't value that...

    2024 Recruiting

    They probably won’t, and somehow L and his staff will get blamed for it as if they can control the transitory nature of kids down here. Boozer family lives here, but they have no connections to Miami and are likely Duke bound. L needs to work it as much as he can, but don’t have super high hopes.
