Calipari hurting them big time

You guys still feeling good about Noah Vonleh? Hoping no...

uncy12, what's the latest on Britt? Sounds like he slipped quite a bit in the rankings.

We are feeling good about Von Leh at this point but IU is in it strong for him. Britt on the other hand seems like another Bronson Koenig except we didn't dodge that bullet.

I don't wanna break rule number 1 but he broke rule number 2 :D

Supposedly Vonleh is down to UNC and IU behind the stage. Cue TrustInRoy going to troll the IU boards ala Cody Zeller.

My bad. I didn't read the rules before posting. I've been pissed off about us falling off a cliff with recruits lately.

Just messing with ya... Is UNC considered to be the leader for Kennedy Meeks? I haven't heard much on him since duke didn't make a move but he seems like he would be trouble at UNC..

Not sure tbh. Haven't been able to look at IC for awhile after my scout global ban. He would be an interesting piece here.

Body habitus puts UCLA firmly in front in that recruitment.

They still think they're getting Randle.

lol. queue up the OFFICIAL WE WANT RANDLE THREAD

 

[marleyboy4945]

I love when recruits want to build hype, and then everyone knows where they're going. Ala Noel, Twins, and especially Randle. Barnes is the only one to really do it big on the suspense thing.

Seriously, can i get a rundown of Carolina targets

K. Meeks #1 C
Vonleh #3 PF
Johnathan Williams #9 PF
Troy Williams #10 SF
Isaih Lewis NR SG


and Parker but I think he dropped them.

 

[SeanMayTriedToEatMe]

No doubt Meeks would morph into a svelte stallion who becomes a top 10 pick after 3 seasons in Roy's system.

 

[DurhamSon]

Meeks is their Tony Parker basically. Their white whale. Emphasis on the whale body shape.

I've been confused about our recruiting for a while now. There doesn't seem to have been much movement for some time and Britt has slipped significantly in the rankings, but I don't know what to take away from that. I thought Meeks was going to commit a while back, but that obviously didn't pan out.

Aside from these matters, and I'm curious what folks here think of this, I am wondering if Roy's recruiting effectiveness is/is-about-to take a hit. In addition to Calipari getting basically whomever he wants, I think the perception is growing that Roy doesn't develop players very well, especially wing players. They don't seem to pan out as well as they should at UNC and, furthermore, Roy hasn't put a star of any sort in the NBA for a while now (Lawson is the closest). IMO, what happens with Barnes (and Henson as well) in the NBA could be significant for UNC recruiting, either positive or negative.

Thoughts?
