First class average at best. An above average coach is the key ingredient. He will develop players unlike you know who. Pruitt will be Barnes like hire.
He's been here for TWO MONTHS for Pete's sake. TWO MONTHS after the crap job Currie did with the hiring process. You can't possibly judge this staff by this class. AND he signed some good talent in the early period. You are one of the way too many of our fans that have some crazy expectation that he was supposed to come in here and pull a top 5 class with the early signing period working against him, and the curse of our last coach and old administration hanging over us.
Did you read his post before raging or....nah?

A) I'm not raging at all.
B) Barnes is known for getting 3* recruits and coaching them up. While I have been a fan of Barnes from day 1, his knock is not getting big names. That dude is equating the short amount of time Pruitt and this staff have had to recruit is going to equal out to getting a bunch of 3* guys and never getting the big boys. To which I say there's no possible way to come to that conclusion from the amount of time and the situation.
C)Do you not understand the connotation of suggesting that he's a Rick Barnes means he doesn't recruit well?
If you took time to read my post you might have an understanding of what I actually said.
I did, and I did.
See the explanation to the next guy. Perhaps you should use better examples, or use more clear language. Because what else can you mean? You mean he's going to be a middle of the road recruiter and a good coach? Because you can't judge his recruiting by today, and really, this whole class. So what else can you mean that I don't understand? Because that's they type coach Rick Barnes (whom I've been happy with since day 1) is.
edit. And I have no high horse, but your post was not complimenting Pruitt. And my point was that none of us can judge how he's going to recruit for us by today.
