Xavier also competes against a Big East team in its own city and has had frequent coaching turnover lately. We should be out recruiting them year in and year out.

I think one of the things this thread points to is that the standard line about Crean "great recruiter but can he coach" is a little off the mark.  Crean has never proved that he can "out sell" everybody else in recruiting.  He is really not in the same league as Pitino or even Calipari as far as signing big names.  What he has shown is that he has an eye for talent in getting his type of player as far as perimeter players and then really developing them.  Even at Mich St the Flint stones were not can't miss top 50 talents coming out of HS.  They were good solid players but the program made them much better.  Unfortunately his radar on post players needs some work.  Now he did recruit Pruitt (Illinois) HARD and I think a guy like that would have been the missing piece on this past years team.  Same with Frazekus.  Both were solid but not 5 stars but have the kind of height we need.  My fear is that he may be kind of throwing in the towel on big men just accepting that for whatever reason he can't land a good one and the ones he can land don't work out.  He is going to all small and quickness, a team that will live on turn overs and fast breaks.  The problem is that it is easier to slow a game down than speed it up and if you can only play one style you are vulnerable.

post from the Boo williams invitational in response to the poster who ripped Crittle for being too small despite the fact that he would be the tallest MU signing in 3 years.


After a so-so showing on the first day, big man Josh Crittle picked it up on day two. Crittle, a 6-foot-8 mammoth of a forward, turned up his energy level and made it a point to hurry up the floor on both ends and he was rewarded. Defensively, Crittle crashed the boards and wasn't being pushed around. Offensively, he did the dirty work and scored buckets inside. Word is, he was even better in a big playoff win over King of the Court to advance to the semi-finals.

Crittle said he is hearing from Iowa State, Virginia, Valparaiso, DePaul, Oregon and Tennessee at the moment.

Chicago kid would be nice to be mentioned...No mention for Mu with Dunnugan either.  Only recent mention of Dunigan was that MU was at a game when they played against Humphrey and Mu has been mentioned as recruiting Humphrey..just what we need another guard.
