Title: Washington DC Recruiting Battle
Post by: nyg on June 19, 2011, 07:19:24 PM
Down time, so you die hard recruit fans will appreciate this.  Goes to show you what goes on beyond the scenes in a "fertile" recruiting environment such as Washington, DC and Prince Georges County, Md.(outside DC).

I will lose any and all respect for Georgetown if they rehire Broadus. He is a whatever it takes coach and I'm not exaggerating in any way.

Also points out the danger of JUCOs unless you have the strong JUCO ties that Buzz does and also an admissions dept with some cojones.

This is a very long read but very revealing and well worth the time:

I didn't read it because I don't have time right now, but that there's one very expensive report.  Skadden Arps to investigate this?  The NY Times reports (http://www.nytimes.com/2010/02/12/sports/ncaabasketball/12binghamton.htm?pagewanted=2) that it cost more than $900,000.
