My Badger-fan co-workers are still claiming that TH didn't have a high enough ACT score to get in to UW-Madison, causing the de-committal.  They're also wondering why all of his finalist schools in his re-recruitment were "Nike schools" (as is his AAU team), insinuating that under-the-table $$$ is driving the deal.

Read Herro's quotes about where he wanted to be.  He wasn't coming to MU even if MU showed up in a limo at his house at midnight and rolled a 4 wheeler out of a semitruck for Wojo to ride from the limo to his front porch.  It was Kentucky or Kansas.

I'm glad we didn't pursue. Going after Grimes made sense based on the makeup of the team. Not so much for Herro. Recruiting is about more than rankings.

I wasn't close to any of this Herro stuff. Did we put forth a strong effort to recruit him?

We expressed interest well over a year ago before he committed to Wisconsin. We put forth zero effort to recruit him since then.

I agree with you. We need to get better talent and having a UK recruit in the backyard is always worth the effort. That was a strange deal , IMO

I don't understand the moaning by some over this recruitment.

MU recruited him, and he didn't seem all that interested
Then, he commits to UW
He then drops UW, looking for a bigger, more national program
A month later, signs with UK

Other than early-on, when was MU supposed to recruit him? When committed to UW? After he dumps UW looking for more exposure?

Not everyone is interested in MU. That's fine.

Between comments like the ones Loose Cannon referred to and other rumblings I heard not on this board, I agree that we did the right thing not recruiting him.

But in general, I agree with you. By the time he became available again, we were full on scholarships and the only person we were recruiting was Quentin Grimes. Going after Herro at that point made no sense. I really think the only reason it's even been discussed is because of the likely family member or classmate that was posting on here that MU should be interested at an obsessive level. Anything in the past year regarding MU and Herro was a complete non-starter.

When 2 of your core players want nothing to do with the kid....then you don't recruit him....it's really not that hard.

Culture and chemistry matter not just talent.
