Message: [QUOTE="RuffRuff, post: 5199367, member: 1268"] What I believe is recruiting is really hard, especially when you're projecting out upside over multiple years at a juncture kids are still growing physically at 17-18 years old. Reduce risk, avoid the drama of playing time management, go grab yourself a kid that has filled out and shown he can play in college for 1-3 years, and contribute immediately. This theory you are pitching out is basically saying that the staff are a trio of alchemists, and anyone they spot they can develop into a NC caliber player. That's not reality. My view is this - unless you're a top 30-40 HS recruit (higher the better) and the staff is confident they can contribute immediately, pass and go portal. The obvious variable needing factoring is NIL. [/QUOTE]
