Message: [QUOTE="bballnut90, post: 3744277, member: 2117"] Not even close to matching UCONN's on paper, but still strong. UCONN has 2 former HS POYs on its roster, plus Westbrook and ONO who were top 5 recruits. HS rankings aren't everything by any means, but UCONN's roster is stronger top to bottom. Mississippi State has Rickea Jackson who is a stud and a lot of solid players. They could very well be a lot better than most here expect they'll be, but I think the loss of Schaefer is being underestimated as he was as good as anyone in the country at getting the most out of kids and creating great teams. Mississippi State has talent but it's highly unlikely that the program can throw in a new coach and have comparable results. [/QUOTE]
