re: Tide Hoops | 25-12 (13-5)

Yep. If we had recruited Sears out of high school he would have been a 4 year guy. You basically have to thread the needle and land a guy who has a strong emotional attachment to the program and is also a good college player with some kind of limiting factor to his game that makes him an iffy NBA prospect. If all of that doesn't apply to a player, it's a virtual certainty he transfers or goes pro early these days.
