2011 Recruiting Thread

[yosh]

Had AR-T already committed, it might be an issue.  He hasn't so it's not. 

[Pete]

Not sure which thread this goes in....bp quote

my N.Y.C. contacts say that Curtis & Jordan when they went home for a little
time, BOTH were telling EVERYONE to go to Kansas State U. w/Frank Martin!

.....Serious Purple Ambassadors.....

uf is starting to recruit ar-t, don't know how seriously.

Angel got U Florida's attention @ their Team Camp last weekend,
Coach Donovan watched ALL of Dr. Krop's games.....

there were like 50-60 teams or something at the camp, so that's a significant time allocation commitment by donovan.  krop does have a couple of other d1 players, but ar-t is definitely the headliner.

[jtksu]

Goddamn Donavon.

[treysolid]

in all reality, donovan has very little on us when it comes to ar-t.  just a FWIW.

[jtksu]

So, we stand a pretty good chance at finishing 2nd to him for another recruit?

[yoga-like_abana]

I can't stand selfish players. Selfish players drive me crazy. Selfish players destroy your locker room. He's another guy that's a pass-first guy.

I mean how many pass first/unselfish players do you recruit before you actually get a player or two

Well the down hill run to SLTH land just picked up momentum.

don't really understand the 2011 negativity.  it'll be a surprise if kstate doesn't sign at least 2 top 150s.  3 more likely.  are people truly going to be disappointed with that?

[sonofdaxjones]

We're paying an assistant coach in excess of $450k a year (with bonuses) to get K-State in on Top 100 kids.   

Why bother to pay out that kind of money if that's not happening??   

I don't believe for a second that Te brings $450K plus worth of bench coaching prowess to the table.

Nino, AR-T, who else do you expect for this class?

Will people be disappointed with that?  You know damn well the answer is yes, because people are Fake Sugar Dick (WARNING, NOT THE REAL SUGAR DICK!).

Will Sugar Dick be disappointed?  Hell No!  I remember when we would be thrilled about having one 150 guy.  Now practically our whole team is made up of them.  It's pretty rough ridin' sweet if you ask me.

I remember standing in line at a subway next to ksu asst. Jimmy Elgas.  ksu was in need of a big man, so I asked him if they were recruiting one or having any luck.  he said "dont worry, we've got your back".  As a young happy EMAW fan, I went home to tell my friends the good news.  Come to find out Serge Afeli was on the way.

So yes, it is nice to finally recruit American players recognized by recruiting services.

Dalonte Hill makes almost as much money as Jim Wooldridge did, and likely makes 2.5 times more  money than Jim Elgas did.

No sh*t.  Jesus, let's f*cking throw a parade because we might get 2(!) top 150's!

[mcmwcat]

rough ridin' christ.  take this crap elsewhere.

No sh*t.  Jesus, let's f*cking throw a parade because we might get 2(!) top 150's!

so, what do you want?  what constitutes a recruiting success for 2011?

[stunz]

feels better to compare it to the thuggins cincy teams, but better coaching.

top 25-ish class would be a success.  two top 150's isn't horrible, but I just don't think it's quite a "success".  I'm more disgusted with "being happy with slightly better than Wooldridge" attitude.

Could one of you two angry bitches summarize who we are currently recruiting that would fit this characterization?
