Is this serious? My post was sarcasm. I know he only had 1 5 star and that talented 5 star didn't carry us. That's MY point.

I’m agreeing with you.

I’m agreeing with you.

lol, I do see how it reads now... it looked like you were saying the opposite. But it's very tough to tell sometimes - my bad!

Sure it can but when done right and most top teams are doing it well, it’s the primary ingredient in winning.

Look at the top teams best players and they’re almost all transfers.

Auburn - Broome
Bama - Sears, Nelson
Tenn - Lanier
Florida - Clayton
Texas Tech - Toppin

There’s a ton more. These aren’t just players but best players, because they developed quicker elsewhere and ready for the prime time. Why in the world would you bypass that for risking unknown upside HS recruits?

Shaka and Painter are just two of the better all HS strategists, plenty behind them that aren’t worth talking about.

Pitino gets it but as long as we can develop that HS talent like Solo you get a nice mix. We wiffed on pg this year and are making the best of it.

Mine too! I threw in the lol at the beginning and sort of built on the sarcastic humor foundation. But it wasn’t necessarily clear the way it would be with the sarcastic tone in my “out loud” voice.
