No doubt, signing HaHa, Sullivan and Calhoun was awful.

You must be too young to remember the Murry years

We missed on Coleman and Norris and Mitchell last year, and Ingram this year. I'm not unhappy with what we've brought in, but of the top 5 in state players for 2015, 4 are going to Alabama or auburn and the other hasn't made his mind up yet.

They can pay a higher salary...

I wonder if we are hurt in recruiting the 2015 grads because we added seven new guys in this past class. Maybe the recruits are concerned with the playing time available. Hope we can pull Burton. I think there is plenty of room in the frontcourt rotation for him with CJ leaving.

I agree. I think that's a big reason we missed on Ingram.
