Sheer logic makes me think that we ought to have a pretty good recruiting class coming in. Wes Flanigan has been an assistant at Little Rock, UAB, Nebraska and Mississippi State. As an assistant he would have been involved in recruiting at each school, and should have learned something about evaluating talent from each of his head coaches. He would have had lots of practice at it, from several different perspectives. In addition, he grew up in a basketball family with a father who has coached a number of Division 1 players.
We had several slots available this recruiting season. We filled all the openings in the early period. Logically, that should mean that we got who we wanted. If we got who we wanted, and if Wes is as good as he ought to be at evaluating talent, then we ought to have a good group coming in. Now, logic does not always equal reality, but it is enough to make me optimistic.
