Message: [QUOTE="dennismenace, post: 2447707, member: 6158"] That may be true but if that was the same year ( I think it was; others may remember) Calhoun said he would never let a recruiter (at that time Tom Moore) have that much control over recruit selection ever again. I guess what he was saying was athleticism wasn't the be all and end all. You can go back and look at the players and decide for yourself. (Outside of Kemba perhaps, who eventually really blossomed), he was saying they had attitude problems and weren't manageable. Not sure if it was the kids themselves or the way times have changed and how kids look at college hoop. I do remember people saying that JC's way was not the way to motivate kids anymore at that time. Perhaps some truth on both sides. Not trying to argue here, just reflecting on motivation and responsibility. So his rant may not have had the effect he desired but he was saying that it was on them. [/QUOTE]
