If we had lost Braeden to Kentucky, you probably would be bitching even more, man. Please.

At this point in the game you need to pick up a guy like Anderson. W/ the Morris Twins hanging in limbo, it put the coaching staff in a difficult position because it's hard to recruit Top 50 guys to play behind guys like that. Nothing the coaches did wrong. I don't understand your point about the last 4 years? Yes, we've landed alot of very high recruits the last 4 years. Look at the 2008 team that won the National Title. Chalmers, Rush, Arthur, Robinson, Collins, Kaun...ALL BIG TIME RECRUITS. Even this year's team, the Morris Twins were both Top 45, T-Rob was like Top 25, EJ Top 25, and then you speckle in Top 60 guys like Releford and Taylor. That isn't to say you can't get it done w/ Top 125 guys vs Top 30 guys, but it's just alot harder and you have to be fortunate with guys developing. I don't know why this is so hard to understand?

I'm pretty sure Trevor wasn't interested in KU a whole lot, didn't want to follow in his big bro's footsteps, and Alabama's coach was implementing the full court press for sometime.

People are excited because they love KU basketball and we assume Bill Self isn't going to recruit a bunch of schmucks. Obviously we all want a team of 5 stars, but we didn't get those guys so let's get behind whoever the coaching staff thinks they can plug in.

It just so happens that most of the time, star ratings are generally correct and those are the guys that we are targeting. But we aren't targeting because of their rating, but rather how good they can make the team. |

Worrying too much about recruiting isn't healthy.

What is BWillie actually arguing, though? That we shouldn't be happy Self got Anderson?
