I’ll be the first to say I’m guilty of this; I’ve been disappointed at us reaching lower into the star-rankings for kids while simultaneously griping that we need a couple of guys that are here for more than one year (i.e. Epps, Miller, Patterson, Willis ) to mix with the incoming 5* freshman. I’ve been astonished at us trying to get kids that have committed to Mississippi State and other unremarkable schools.
Maybe I’ve been too entitled-feeling or just can’t be satisfied? Maybe this is the year that grabbing a couple of these kids provides what we’ve been needing, rather than lamenting on the misses of higher-ranked, over-confident (ie Livingston, Whitney) kids. This team will be loaded anyway, but would love to find a couple of kids that are going to be “merely”really good college players and nothing beyond that. Who could turn out to be more like a Ricky Council from Arkansas rather than a Lance Ware skil-wise? If we find those 2 is there a chance that we make a jump to returning towards our former selves? The other teams seem to find them. Thoughts?
