Weekly college basketball recruiting mailbag

Posted Jan 11, 2019
How do you see the looming ability of kids to play straight out of HS filtering down to today’s recruiting? My initial thought would be that the schools that have benefited from one-and-done prospects, like Duke and Kentucky, will have to adjust how and who they recruit. They’ll still have to do their homework on the top tier guys, but they’ll also have to have a pulse on who wants to go straight to the NBA. (247 Sports)
