[QUOTE="lv20gt, post: 144369, member: 2299"] In two years Price's ability to recruit will almost certainly still be a major ? due to the fact of him only having one full class signed. And while he could make huge immediate strides for the 49ers, more likely he'll have more modest first steps in improving them, if he does. Considering CUSA was a one team conference in the NCAA I believe, it's highly likely that even if he does well, in two years he will still be a coach without NCAAT experience. If we wait two years so the buyout situation is resolved, assuming it is in two years, then it wouldn't make sense to turn around and hire a guy that would be seen as a budget hire if it wasn't for him playing here. And while he may be synonymous with GT basketball for a lot of people, he hasn't been here in 30 years. For pretty much everyone 40 or younger they have little recollection of his college days, people 25 or younger probably don't remember much of his pro days at all. To a large portion of the fanbase, Price is a guy who you know was really good, but that's very different than being a guy you remember watching being really good. And the hire would be compared to Lowe at NCSU. It would not be nearly as universally praised as people here would think. Price would have been a fine choice for this year when paying two buyouts would limit us. He almost certainly wouldn't make a fine choice if we decide to wait the buyouts out, unless for some unknown reason that means 4+ years. [/QUOTE]
