Noooo way...college football coach lies to a big time recruit to get him to sign.
Many years ago on John Thompson's radio talkshow, Coach John Calipari shared a story about the recruitment of Marcus Camby, who is 6'11" and, who at the time, was one of the top high school players in the nation. Camby had insisted on playing some shooting guard. This was before it was as common as it is today to see big men playing shooting guard. Calipari said, "Sure Marcus, so long as you understand we like to post our shooting guards up." Looking back, Marcus was forward thinking.
