3rd in the big 12 has a much nicer ring to it than what we got used to...

We also had seven recruits.......

Which may hurt us in this deal. It doesn't seem like the number of recruits really matters.

St. Johns has 9 recruits!?!? damn that is a big class.

And North Carolina is 4th with 2 recruits so the number of recruits isn't something that would skew the rankings a lot.

And why is Missouri last in the Big 12? I thought they had some really good recruits coming in.

Over 1/2 of these kids are coming out of prep schools.
Also Harrison Barness is rated #2 in their NBA mock draft.

Actually, Greg McDermott's recruiting was quite good. Over 4 years, almost all 3-stars or higher, with several 4-star recruits and one 5-star recruit. Better than Hoiberg, so far.

Just stating the facts, no criticisms in any way here.

Which makes what he was able to accomplish here all the worse.

Didn't St. Johns have 10 seniors?

Well, but hopefully Fred doesn't have quite as many misses as McD had. yeah there were a LOT of 3 stars, but tell me how good really were the likes of Dominique Buckley, Clinton Mann, LA Pomlee, Wes Eikmeier, Marcus Brister, Dodie Dunson, Cory Johnson, Antwon Oliver (All 3 stars.) He also had Charles Boozer, Corey McIntosh, Clayton Vette as 2 stars...Craig Brackins was the 5 star of course and one of our best recruitments ever. Chris Colvin and LaRon Dendy were the only 4 stars so I don't think 2 qualifies as several...It's too early to judge Hoiberg yet, but I really don't think FH's recruiting is going to be worse. Maybe the same in terms of star ratings, but hopefully better producers on the court.

None of this is true.

False. I site the 2009 class.

Yahoo Sports: Rivals.com 2009 Iowa St. Commitments

2 4-stars.

And the 2007 class.

Yahoo Sports: Rivals.com 2007 Iowa St. Commitments

1 5-star. And the vast majority of the other recruits were rated as 3-stars.

How is not of his statement true?

**CloneState1028** · 03-20-2011, 11:03 AM

Several is 2? And CFH has recruited 1 5* (White), 3 4*'s (Lucious, Allen, Booker), and nothing worse than a 3* (other than recruits that were not even evaluated). So far I'd give the nod to CFH considering he's done all of this in one year while it took McDermott 4 years.
