Message: [QUOTE="BUConn10, post: 2194543, member: 5075"] Tremont's attitude towards UConn and his recruitment in general, waiting for the "big offer", is really a case of the bigger newfound trend in the sport of college basketball. Our recruiting has simply [I]changed [/I]from the early 2000's Calhoun era. The constant infusion of NBA money and brand building for the next level, fueled by the existence of a "one-and-done" rule has created this rift between programs that previously were more or less on the same tier or respective playing field. Guys that used to be our prime targets in each class these days prefer to be role players at the "top 5" programs because of the perceived earnings boost that it will lead to in their future endeavors, and looking at the data I can't say that they are wrong. We need to adapt or fall to the wayside, fortunately I believe dumping Miller and bringing on Chillious is exactly what that move intended. [/QUOTE]
