Also, another thing to consider: it seemed like the previous regime was playing their cards closer to the vest than Boals and Co. Some of the SP recruits we wouldn't find out about until they actually committed or a few days prior to committing. They could have had a lot more offers out there than had been reported. Or their strategy was way different.
I was thinking the same thing when I saw this thread. The Saul, and even the JC staffs both seemed to keep things closer to the vest, while Boals' staff has the approach of letting everyone know who they're offering. I'm not sure which approach might be better until we see a few more recruiting classes.
Going out on a limb that Saul and company’s strategy failed miserably.
And we'll know if Boals failed in a couple years. Offering a lot early has a big downside. Guessing you were never recruited for D1 ball.
Someone is still pouting! You cast a wide net early and narrow or it narrows as ithe process unfolds. Each year, aside from offers, you will begin with a hundred plus contacts and evaluations and each year you knock that list down. You may want to move on Jerry.
Trust me, I played ball at a higher level than you did. Who's pouting? Instead I am disappointed in the immature posters who supposedly have degrees from Ohio acting like Saul was a ZERO. Grow up to those it applies to ... I can names names but I wont. It's obvious from reading posts.
Overly sensitive today? No one is acting like Saul was a zero, those are your words. Saul is a great person, good coach, he’s proven that at other places, just did not work out here. And no one really cares about your glory days. Tim O’Shea played high level ball too, man that really translated well.
Your drivel is just that .. drivel. And you played ball where? Read your prior post .. and if able to comprehend then message me back. You know zilch about college basketball recruiting, perhaps because you were never recruited.
I’ve been through the DI recruiting process dozens of times, from the Big10, SEC to the MAC, nice try though sunshine.
LOL. Must be nice to live in a fantasy world. Reality is it was NOT you being recruited.
No it wasn’t me, but I’ve had a lot of personal experience, both inside and outside the process. Your attitude that since no one else here was actually recruited then we know nothing is laughable. My comments on this matter were simply fact, the process begins years out with a wide net that is then narrowed down. But at the end of the day, I do not need you to validate my career or knowledge of college athletics, a field that today I still work in.
Thank you for validating my point. I guess that is as close to "I was wrong as you'll ever get". Get in the last word, as you always must. I'll not reply. I wish we had an IGNORE feature here. Go back, and READ, and comprehend ALL of your posts here. Comprehend your condescending attitudes in many of those posts. Mature, and realize many people know, as much, if not more than you do.
