Nobody paid anything for this kid, it's idiotic to think so
All they needed to do was point to the local NBA franchise for an example of a Pastner coached player who came in as a top 10 player in his class and ended up a second round pick after 2 years.
Yeah, top ranked high school kids always pan out.

That's precisely the point. Top ranked kids have talent, but talent isn't everything. I remember when we lost 'The Master Blaster', everybody thought that was awful and he would be the #1 pick. Turned out to be a good but not great college player. Same with Adonis Thomas.

Pookie, Magee and a possible SR transfer.
Wonder how those 2 guys feel about being recruited over them?

They are probably going to transfer now, just on principle and all.

You just did. Missed on a ton of recruits. That is at least 200 missed recruits or they were really really big recruits.
I don't what you mean . I not spinning anything. The man is being paid over 2 million per year to recruit basketball players. He missed on all of them this season , except Magee. He signed 3 low rated JC . He missed on all of his major targets. , when recruiting is his claim to fame. Memphis could hire a mid major coach for $ 500, 000 and get these results.
