I think baseball is really the only program that GT can recruit at a national level in anymore. We can't interest any blue clippers in basketball and our recruiting in football hasn't been very impressive for at least a decade (arguably a lot longer). But in baseball, we've still got "it".
I agree we still have "it" by the top 10 recruiting classes we are capable of bringing in. That is very very unlikely in football and absurd for basketball.
I think we get these classes by having the best baseball program in Georgia and getting the best recruits in the State. Out of state we get blue chips; Travis Entrop, Jonathan King and Zac Ryan are the only out of state players on our current roster of 39 (<10%).
As for recruits, our 2016 class of 12 has two, Chase Murray and Jay Wilson. Chase is a top 200 Perfect Game rated players, so probably 75% likely t0 come to GT after the draft this summer.
Thanks for posting, nice break from thinking about basketball and football. Tonight, I'll try to post about all of our top PG 300 recruits. A lot of Georgia studs and I'll see which school in Georgia has best recruits coming up ...... (but the better they are the less likely to come to any college).
