Recruiting as of 3/15/24

[Juan Anderson's Mixtape]

Beyond this not belonging on the recruiting thread... Is it relevant on any thread at all?

Only the NM thread.

[We R Final Four]

Any word from Seth?

Any word from Seth?

And right on cue:

How was it to be back on a college campus yesterday?
"It felt really good to finally get back on a campus, was fun.”

And what are your thoughts after that Marquette visit?
“Marquette visit went really well, really got to connect with Coach Smart and the rest of his staff. We went over the film, had some deep talks, went through the practice facility and FiservForum, and more. I really enjoyed the visit overall.”

He's Michigan's to lose, but glad the visit went well.

[BCHoopster]

I believe Bond if he comes to MU and Joplin have to recruit Trimble, it will be interesting.  Local ties do help.

What happened to the death knell of Creighton and Coach Mac?  I thought this board made it crystal clear that after TyTy Washington de-committed that Creighton/Coach Mac would never recover from the overhyped misuse of words in a private team meeting. 

Instead they've flourished on the recruiting trail and look like they will reload instead of rebuild.

A little known secret is Coach Mac is in the top 5 of all college basketball coaches who can flat out coach and would regularly outclass Wojo.  Not sure if we didn't have the Covid cancelled NCAA tournament the year before that Creighton wouldn't have made the Final 4. 

Good for Creighton and good for the conference with 5 teams in the top 20 and 6 teams in the top 30.

Coach Mac is one of the top five basketball coaches in the country???

And he had a .500 coaching record against Wojo.

[The Lens]

A little well known secret fact is Coach Mac runs a style of play that attracts players but has never garnered results in the NCAA.  is in the top 5 of all college basketball coaches who can flat out coach and would regularly outclass way to often lose to Wojo when favored.  Not sure if we didn't have the Covid cancelled NCAA tournament the year before that Creighton wouldn't have made the Final 4.

Lol guy who has 1 sweet 16 to his name and went .500 against Wojo is in the top 5 of coaches 😂

When players know bags will be dropped for you, recruiting is much easier.

The most common lament of fans of struggling programs? “The other guys are cheating!” It’s the lament of the loser. Hate to see it from our fans.

You must be living under a rock.

And you must be living on the corner of Whiner St. and Victim Ave.

Yup, confirmed.  Definitely living under a rock.

Thanks for the laugh. That said, BLM can teach you a lot and I think you should pay closer attention to his posts.

Not just struggling programs. Our neighbors to the west trot that one out repeatedly.

If he doesn't think Creighton cheats, yes, I probably could.  Unlike you, I will not proclaim myself as an expert in "ball."  But when someone doesn't believe Creighton cheats, it's pretty easy to teach them something.

Very true.

I almost spit out my Coke Zero. Well done, Smitty.

In alphabetical order the D1 schools who “cheat” begins somewhere around Abilene Christian and ends a a little bit past Xavier.

As the old saying goes - if you aren't cheating, you aren't trying.

I know there has been some discussion about targeting transfers from other Beast schools, either in this thread or one of the transfer threads.  Effective immediately student athletes can transfer from school-to-school within the league.  Per Fanta.
