Message: [QUOTE="HuskyHawk, post: 2128989, member: 1414"] You're really stretching the point now. If we play along, then I can certainly imagine Larrier being better than Lamb, who was really a shooting guard. Hamilton was better than whoever you could pick that was an actual SF under Calhoun in those five years (probably Giffey). I think Adams is already better than Boatright ever was, and in another year will be much better. I suspect that Gilbert will be tremendous. I think Drummond is a little silly, because he was a one and done who didn't do much in a pretty poor season at UConn. Add to that, the APR sanctions impacted Ollie, not Calhoun really. Has Ollie been a [B]great[/B] recruiter? No, but he's been good. Hamilton, Adams, Gilbert, luring 5* McD Purvis, getting Larrier, MAL, Jackson, those are all strong recruits. Polley looks good and is a 4*. But be honest about JCs misses in his last 5 years. 2010, Bazz, Lamb and Tyler and two zeros (once Roscoe left). 2009...Alex O contributed before leaving, but Trice? Smith? Jamal Coombs-McDaniel? Zip. Nothing. 2008, Kemba and four guys who did zero or never played. 2007...just Beverly. 2011 was a solid year, but Drummond and Daniels didn't stay long. JC had a few hits, and a crapload of misses in that last 5 years. [/QUOTE]
