I smiled cuz I see where you're going with your comparison, but Brad Pitt has won an Oscar for best supporting actor and had 3 other nominations. ;)
I just watched The Last of the Mohicans the other night. Daniel Day Lewis master class

If we actually land that 4 man class aside from Furphy that would be the best recruiting class we ever had here(correct me if I am wrong). How spoiled would we be?
The Donyell, Ollie, Rudy Johnson, Brian Fair, Donny Marshall class was #2 in the country. This would be right there with it.

Difference with the potential of this one is that it would be "4" top 25-35 guys. All of our other great classes had one star and then a bunch of guys in the 40-80 range.

Rudy Johnson was #32 in the country, pretty sure Brian Fair and Ollie were also top 40 but can't find their rankings.

2006 was another good one- #18 Stanley Robinson, #30 Curtis Kelly, #36 Jerome Dyson, #55 Doug Wiggins, #64 Hasheem Thabeet.

2000 class with Taliek, Caron and Scott Hazelton was right there also. ESPN had it as the #1 class.

I definitely give the staff so much credit for their roster construction. Hurley is putting the other schools on notice this year that UConn will be a big player when he identifies a kid with talent and is a cultural fit. I don’t think he is getting 5 star happy but it’s nice to get those studs in the 15-25 range that will stay a couple years.

My guy Johnnie Selvie was also in that class as a JuCo.

Shaw's predictions for those who can't see it:
Mullins: UConn (60% confidence)
Bundalo: UConn (25% confidence)
Reibe: UConn (20% confidence)
Lewis: Kentucky (60% confidence)

I'd love to ask him his scoring rubric for differentiating between 20% and 25% confidence.

The whole recruiting tracking/trending world is a akin to witchcraft, tea leaves, numerology, tarot cards, and other bullpoopery. "Momentum is building"...like they are reporting on rocks rolling down a mountain.

It is amusing and entertaining, at least. Paying to access it is kinda goofy, but to each their own with disposable income.
