The Kirkland situation last year was a disaster. I hope the staff has learned from it.
They misevaluated Kirkland when most amateurs on here could tell you he was a monster. Because they weren't high on him, they forced him to commit on the spot rather than NSD.
Ice Harris, correctly, stood up for his player and said "Why are you giving my All-American an ultimatum when you are waiting for eight other kids on NSD?" The saddest thing is that Kirkland would have been a Cane.
That poor decision by the staff damaged our relationship with the best local program and cost us a freshman All-American player.
Why? What was the angle on forcing his hand. It doesn't make sense.
