Message: [QUOTE="Guru13, post: 4313636, member: 8366"] I’m not trying to start an argument, I just have my reservations. We can all agree all of the recruits we have had that have come through UConn have played well in high school or else we wouldn’t have recruited them. When it comes to recruiting it’s a hit or miss just because a kid played well in x place in high school does not mean he will do well in college. These kids aren’t competing against kids from their high school anymore but with stellar athletes from different high schools from different states. And sorry to say but there are some kids on the team that played in higher level of competition in high school than some others on our team from powerhouse states who have the advantage coming in because of development and skill. The expectation is for those kids to develop well and see the field early on but that’s not always the case because a kid from a small town with no offers can be better than a kid who had impressive D1 offers from high school. Offer list are impressive but does not always mean that kid will be a definite contributor right away. [/QUOTE]
