[QUOTE="ESPNjacket, post: 536865, member: 2775"] There is probably the same or better correlation with all-time program record to wins as there is with recruiting rankings and wins. Unless you compare the two it is pretty much meaningless. I can tell you right now that Duke, UNC, Kansas, Kentucky, and UCLA will be really talented in 5 years without knowing who the players are or how highly ranked they are. The top 25 or so recruits in basketball are fairly obvious each year. There may be a few who don't live up to it but it is only a few. The idea that number 46 is way better than number 84 is misguided and not particularly relevant. It is much more important to each of those guys to go to a program where they fit the system and aren't the fourth guy with the exact same skill set. The underrated part of Cremins was that he was a great recruiter who also understood how lineups worked together. Hewitt was horrible at that. Guys leaving early killed Cremins because his whole approach to recruiting assumed his guys would stay and he could focus on the next guy or two to fill the holes of the departures. Bobby was a sniper in a game that turned to a broader approach. [/QUOTE]
