[QUOTE="RamblinRed, post: 491526, member: 1776"] FWIW, Salley and Price were not all that highly regarded as prospects. Price was Tri-PoY in Oklahoma with Wayne Tisdale and Steve Hale but was considered the most marginal as a college prospect. They didn't have Top 100 lists or star ratings when he came out but he likely would have been ranked similar to Jose Alvarado. A high 3-star guy. Intriguing skills but maybe too small and too slow for college to be a star. Salley was a complete project pick up. Came to GT as a 6'9, 180 run/jump guy. Over 4 yrs he grew to 7', 225 and added some skill level. Would love for Moses to follow a similar trajectory. The first true blue chip type prospect Cremins recruited was Bruce Darlymple. there was alot of good fortune in that Price/Salley class. No one expected Salley to amount to alot in college. Price was expected to follow Tisdale to OK but decided to take a chance on GT. After he completed his college career Dean Smith wrote Price a letter where he apologized for not recruiting him (he recruited Hale instead) and said it was the biggest recruiting mistake of his career.
