That's disappointing but it sounds like he's still leaning towards the Horns:

Yeah, but he also said he wants to go in and win somewhere, and by the looks of his list, and our recent struggles, I'm not sure that means UT.

This is VERY disappointing. Daniels hurt because there aren't many big men in this class to begin with, but this may hurt worse because of our lack of true PG's since DJ left. He's a TJ Ford type of recruit.

what the f. Not what i needed to hear after last night.

sorry for my new thread on the same topic. Not sure how I missed this one.

This is brutal. Daniels and Kabongo are the types of guys that can overcome Barnes' offensive ineptitude. And we still don't have a big man committed for 2011 (don't give me Holmes, he's a SF). What originally looked like one of our best recruiting classes ever is now starting to look more and more average.

I wonder what the percentage is for top recruits that decommit and later recommit to the same school? Probably not very high.

This is how a programs decline begins. Barnes and his luster has completely worn off I'm afraid. I hope a decline does not come, but I fear that is coming

Let's back off the ledge for a second...

Where do some of you guys come from? Barnes brings in the #4 class last year and the #8 class this year and the luster is coming off because 2 guys decommit?

You'd be the same guys running off Coach K when Harrison Barnes committed to UNC......

Last year's team had chemistry issues with the freshman, **** happens, let's see how this year goes before turning into jackasses early.

I would love for Kabango and Daniels to recommit, but if they don't that leaves more scholarships for the 2012 and 2013 classes. Both of these classes are VERY deep in Texas and could do a lot for our program.

The only problem with that though is that next season could be REALLY ugly because of our lack of depth, especially inside.

 

[Third Coast]

Back in the family. Woohoo!

Recruiting don't mean jack if the coaching sucks...Barnes luster has diminished the last couple of years based on performances on the court. The product on the court has been crap and this is not what I expect from Barnes.

Barnes need to bring in recruits that he can coach. If he can't coach these high profile recruits, then he should stop recruiting them. His last couple of teams have not been fun to watch at all.
