[QUOTE="RamblinRed, post: 395273, member: 1776"] No I don't think it is a way of mitigating last year's recruiting 'disappointment'. He was very open from his first press conference about how he planned to build the program. It was never about getting high 4 and 5 star guys (not that we won't take the occassional swing at one). it was about getting high 3 and 4 star kids that are going to stay in the program. If he didn't start mentioning this until Nov 2016 then I could buy that, but he started talking about the process he expected to follow from day 1 and talked about it alot. i don't think he believes GT can compete consistently on the recruiting trail with Duke, UNC and probably L'ville so don't waste your time trying. Get players that you can get that can develop in time into players that cna play with the one and done types those schools can get consistently. I also don't consider the 2017 recruiting class a disappointment, i'm actually fine with it. As I mentioned before we didn't even have any asst coaches until after the spring AAU season ended. So while everyone else had 4 coaches out watching and talking to people we had one. That was a decision Mbob and Pastner made to take time to get the right coaching staff together. Not having coaches that spring put GT way behind when players start making decisions about 2-3 months later. As an FYI, it has been mentioned elsewhere that Haywood is not 100%. Reportedly still limping around campus. [/QUOTE]
