Personally I think it should be similar to the baseball rule but only require 2 years of college if you opt for that route. You have to give Cal credit for convincing all of these guys that they need to come play for him to get to the pros though. It isn't his fault they are too stupid to realize they could go play for some directional school and still be a lottery pick.

It's the rules I have a problem with, not the recruiter. But I'm going to take it out on both.

Go look at Kentuckys class. They just signed the number 2 player today. They have 6 five star players signed. The number 2, 4, 5, 10, 13, and 18 overall rated players. Sucks for guys like Poythress, Cauley, and Goodwin. If I was them I would transfer. Also sucks that Cal is making this years failure look like its the kids fault.

They should have a solid team next year depending on who stays and who goes.

No matter who stays and goes they will have a solid team lol. All of them said originally that they were staying but I doubt it sticks especially with Proythress and Goodwinn. He has 2 top 10 wing players commited so Goodwin wont be getting too much PT and with the guy they signed today im pretty sure that puts Proythress on the bench. The only guy I see on this years team getting much PT is the center that we wanted and thats because of his upside. He should be great next year.

Saying dumb shite in general, but especially to recruits. At first, he brought decent info, but now, he knows nothing that I or anyone else couldn't already tell you.

Yea he had some pretty good info at first, but now it seems as though he's late on everything.

Ah ok. That ship has probably sailed but I hope we can get him back at the 11th hour. He's the kind of guy we need at PG if we ever want to counteract Grant on offense.

If I remember correctly, he plays for Alabama Challenge. We normally get the challenge guys we push for.

Yea he is. I just don't know anything about him. We've been on him a while, but I can't get a hold of any kind of scouting report on him. You know what any of his specialties are?

I twitter searched him, and found a guy who said he won the 3-point contest and this article that says hit 6 3-pointers back in December. So I'm guessing a 3 pt shooter?

Great article on the 2014 in-state prospects.

Looks like Haas's stats might've been a little inflated in the Rivals article, but still solid. Says we offered Houston and Sullivan which is kind of surprising if true. Not sure about signing a shooting guard averaging 11 ppg. I want to believe those are William Lee's stats, but I have trouble believing them, especially with the rumor of him averaging 15 BPG. I don't care what kind of competition he's playing, that's ridiculous.

Not sure I agree with the comment about Sullivan being the state's best prospect if he were in the 2013 class. Taylor has some offensive problems, but he's got to be a better prospect than Sullivan.
