Two 5 Star Recruits in Same Class?

I wasnt trying to say they didnt recruit talented players at all, they do but they get a good mix between 5 and 4 stars unlike UK who tries to fill their class out of the top 10. That was my whole argument, for the levels of success both school have had I'll take the Nova recruiting format and more success like them everyday of the week and twice on Sunday. 

Plus, I want to cheer for guys for 2, 3 and 4 years!

I said in an earlier post that I would prefer Nova's recruiting style of taking guys in the top 30 to 70 that stick around.

I think we actually completely agree with each other.

It's a difficult balancing act. For this year it would mean not taking a Phinisee or an Anderson. Thank goodness we weren't Darius Garland or bust, at PG.

If there is a five star recruit instate or related to a former player, do you not recruit them because they might not stick around 3-4 years? Of course not. If a top recruit is interested in your program, you recruit them.

Did anyone say you don't take them? 

In 2019, I'd take Jackson-Davis, Brooks, Watford, and one of the guards we're going after.  I don't think any of them are surefire OAD players though.  If we could get 2 years our of that trio of forwards we'd be in great shape.

Two five stars in a single class is known as a disappointment at Kentucky. We need to aim for their level of recruiting.

I disagree... I want a nice mix of future pros to follow at the NBA level and banners. I hope we model our recruiting efforts closer to Villanova and North Carolina (No I don’t want us to start offering fake classes). Fill a roster with mid-high 4 star guys that fit into roles, are coachable and have upside. Build that foundation then recruit the hell out of 1-2 program changing recruits each year. I don’t want to recruit like Duke or Kentucky at all. It’s not sustainable at all. Make up on a pig if you ask me.
