Message: [QUOTE="blue93, post: 2621031, member: 6243"] I'm with [USER=44]@CL82[/USER] on this one. I think a lot of recruits that make it to the D1 level have been able go a good part of their lives succeeding mostly off of their talent. Obviously top 5* recruits often have the whole package, but many of them have not been playing long enough/coached well enough to know the intricacies of the game that a college coaching staff can teach them. Look at how many big men we've brought in that were 4 star recruits that weren't able to play a lick of defense at this level because they don't have any awareness of their positioning. It happens all the time. There's are reason a lot of these guys get better in their junior and senior years, and it's not just because they're running faster and jumping higher than they were in high school. [/QUOTE]
