There is no real “super” team this year like we’ve seen in prior years. Any team is capable of losing. Make the NCAA tournament and anything can happen . 

I think it is a little premature for that.  Still early.  Plenty of time for the cream to rise.

It's fun to poke at teams like UK and Duke when they lose early but it's going to happen more and more with those teams when trying to mesh 4-7 new guys each year early in a season. The team that doesn't have an excuse is Sparty. Plenty of vets there where upsets vs bad teams shouldn't happen.

Also these high profile recruits don't get up to play some directional school because most probably have never heard of these schools.  They get up to play in these big marquee games but will look at the name on the jersey and if they are not a big time program they couldn't care less.

Did anyone see the quote from Crean about Aaron Henry over on Inside the Hall?  Lol.  Someone posted it on the Rivals board.  He's truly the most delusional man ever.

No, did not see those quotes would you share them with us who don't go to rivals.  As for Henry his dad is already talking about how Aaron will be a first round pick in this years draft.

I did. I have a ton of respect for Crean. He took over our dumpster fire when plenty others wouldn't. Got us a couple Big 10 titles and had a few very good seasons. With that said....the only in state recruit he locked up in his last 4 classes was Blackmon. Coach Crean should pump the brakes a little and PS....Henry had his chance to say yes. Others said yes first. No harm no foul and wish the kid luck.

Hard to argue we shouldn’t have kept that scholly open for him if he wanted it, though.

You can thank Fred Glass for that move. Having to keep a couple guys around for APR reasons but Archie in a bind. 

Eh, it’s not Glass’s fault that the staff didn’t recognize Henry was a far better prospect than Anderson.  But hindsight’s 20/20... Hopefully Anderson provides about as much value in 4 years as Henry does in 2-3.

Not how it happen because all 3 had offers and they were recruiting them all hard.  Henry had his chance but Hunter and Anderson committed first. Henry's dad said that the offer still was there but after those two committed they did not hear that much from the coaching staff.
