That wasn't Donovan coaching the 1994 team. That was Kruger.

That makes it worse.

A Clear downgrade in coaching.

Before 2016, no one did less with more than Kruger.

Not saying that Gottfried is worse, but Gottfried deserves mention here:

His recruiting classes @ State:

2012:

***** SF- TJ Warren

***** SG- Rodney Purvis

**** PG- Tyler Lewis

2013

**** PG- Cat Barber

**** C- Kyle Washington

**** PF- BeeJay Anya

*** SG- Desmond Lee (JC)

*** PF- Lennard Freeman

2014

**** PF- Abdul-Malik Abu

**** SF- Cody Martin

**** SF- Caleb Martin

2015

**** SG- Maverick Rowan

*** SF- Shaun Kirk

2016

***** PG- Dennis Smith Jr

***** C- Omer Yurtseven

**** PG- Markell Johnson

**** PF- Ted Kapita

82% of his signees were rated as a 4* or higher. That's ridiculous work on the recruiting trail. Yet he never had a Top 25 finish in the polls at NCSU. Horrendous.

Illinois has put in a lot of work into Ayo, but they're striking out on pretty much everyone else.

He had his bags packed for Tucson before the FBI got involved. Good pick up by UNC.

I'm wondering if he/his family knew what was going on? If so, there could be eligibility concerns.

Good question. A recruiting writer for Rivals.com says he doesn't buy the $150,000 bidding war story, though. Who knows.

Who knows at this point, I'm wondering if Roy Williams can actually keep him for 3 years or if the guy is a true 1 and done.

Roy's been pretty good at getting some OAD talents to stay an extra year. He did just lose Tony Bradley to the Draft after one year, though.

Landers Nolley has officially eliminated Illinois. He is down to Virginia Tech and Georgia.
