Just like one Final Four will not result in us winning all the recruiting battles we think we should win.
Look, he did great at SIU, then got worse every year at Illinois. You can pretty much expect the same at KSU as he won't have the benefit of such fertile recruiting grounds around him like he had at Illinois. Granted, he failed to land most of those kids anyway.Infinity Art Glass - Fantastic local artist and Shocker fan

Originally posted by SubGod22 View PostI don't see "a lot" of intriguing big man prospects left for '14 on our list. We're definitely into plan C or worse territory. Now, those guys can be just fine and maybe surprise, but we were looking at guys who could step in and be factors right away. I believe those guys are all gone now. We need a 6'9"+ big that can step in and be a beast for us. Othewise, we're going to have the front court depth to rival SIU next year.
Plan C or worse? I highly doubt it."Don't measure yourself by what you have accomplished, but by what you should accomplish with your ability."

KSU is not moving up the ladder. With or without Hurt, they're going to fall with Weber. Even most of the KSU fans I know have little to no faith in him.Infinity Art Glass - Fantastic local artist and Shocker fan

Without Hurt we could definitely be in a rebuilding mode in 14-15 (which under HCGM I still would expect to be top 50-75 rpi). Even if we get a good high school kid or two lack of experience in the post is going to be a factor. I'm not worried but with the backcourt becoming juniors and seniors we could make some real noise if we can shore up the post.Shocker Nation, NYC
