[QUOTE="RamblinRed, post: 939873, member: 1776"] Agree with all of this. The bolded part is the big piece. The pool GT can recruit from is smaller than the pool that most of its competitors recruit from. That's just a simple fact and has been the case since post-Stephen Marbury, whose lack of academic interest left a sour taste in some mouths. It is also unlikely to change. I've talked to multiple coaches over the years and generally they have a database of prospects they are interested in. Once they get the first official transcripts from high schools - generally at the end of Jr yr - they drop 40-50% of the prospects in the database. Academics also impact the transfer portal for GT. Given how GT applies credit from other schools, transfers sometimes get less credit and/or credit not applied to majors than a transfer will get at other schools. It feels like GT is looking to put more investment into fixing the program and that will hopefully help. Stoudamire building a winning program will help more than anything else. [/QUOTE]
