Definitely looks like a strategy change, maybe to something similar to what Calhoun used to do, pursue a couple guys per position and whoever commits first is in.

This year's strategy worked for Gaffney, Bouknight and Akok (one per position seemed to be what was done) but that blew up with Cockburn and likely with Achiuwa. Maybe they're getting bad vibes from Omoruyi.

Not sure I follow your “change in strategy” theory.

This is simply what recruiting looks like when you’ve been at a school for a full year and are not playing catch-up.

Good thought on how first and subsequent years' recruiting may differ.

I was only focusing on how Calhoun seemed to work (offered Kevin Ollie and another guard, maybe Travis Best, and told them he'll take whoever commits first) while this year Hurley seemed to offer very few players. Was there a second center, power forward or small forward offered other than Cockburn, Akok and Achiuwa? I don't recall hearing other names except for point guards and maybe shooting guard.

Glad we got on him a little early. His upside is phenomenal.

 

[JimHurley]

Not sure if it’s this guy but there is a recruit on campus today that looks to be around 7 feet.
