[quote="MarkRedman" post=294906][quote="Paultzman" post=294904]Dawes, Hill, Bishop seem we’ll in play with Gaffney a Xavier lean it appears. Not bad possibilities for guards and wings.
Crazy as it seems, Precious, Aidan & Kofi in play. Considering we really need three players, that seems to have some promise. Precious surprises me, but hear he respects Mullin a lot. Not sure about Samuel, but we’ll know soon if contact with him results in dividend. RM North in better position to gauge that.
If they only land two kids in Fall, obviously they can fill remaining & unanticipated needs in Spring.[/quote]
Thanks, as always Paultz, for the update
Some encouraging news!! Always nice to hear!![/quote]
Pay attention to how Mullin the person, not mullin the hof star resonates with kids and especially their parents.
I heard jay wright once tell a story how he recruited that big kid from Africa about 10.years ago. He travelled all the way there for an in home visit and had his pitch all set. When he got there he was intercepted by the uncle who pulled him aside and told him, " if you only talk about basketball his parents wont send him to you. Dont talk basketball, talk about academics and what his education will do for him.
Wright headed the advice and landed the kid, not saying a word about basketball during the in home visit
