I think recruiting in general is still going to be a struggle for awhile. Especially if they get hammered by the NCAA.

I completely agree with you. We were "lucky" so to speak to have kids who grew up as Jayhawks in our back yard that were also talented. Most years there are no Top 100 kids from Kansas that grew up KU fans. Even getting Braun and Agbaji from the KC area is huge. This honestly could be alot worse but I don't expect us to be nabbing the Wiggins/Oubres/Embiid/Seldens for a while.
