We also got Pinckney so that is four. Why is the transfer market going to all of a sudden dry up? If anything, with the new rules it is going to be a much larger part of college basketball; particularly grad transfers.

There are posters on here that make intelligent constructive criticisms. There are others that just search for some way to complain. If they didn't take transfers, we were missing out. If we do take transfers, we don't have enough freshman. If we get good recruits, its why aren't we getting anyone from 757. If we get them from 757, why aren't we getting them from other places.

The problem is that we aren't sure we have gotten any good recruits outside of the three with ties and Talley. I am sure some of them will turn out to be pretty good, I'm also sure some of them will turn out to be pretty bad, but it is crazy to say "look what a great job of recruiting this staff has done" when at this point there isn't much evidence that they've done any great recruiting outside of family and local kids with ailing parents.
