Self's strategy has always been to recruit the best players. He doesn't care if they're one and done or not. Just get the best players you can get. It helps recruiting when you get the players he and Cal gets so continue doing it. Where the coaching shows up (not saying it hasn't or won't with the one and done guys) is with the guys that end up staying three or four years. That's why he's a better coach than Cal. He is the best of both worlds whereas Cal can only do it with a fab five and luck into a couple juniors or seniors staying on.
