Basketball Coaches Poll: Dirtiest recruitment of the past ten years
Posted Aug 22, 2012
College basketball coaches respond to the question: Which player is perceived to have the dirtiest recruitment in the last 10 years? Shabazz Muhammad: 15 percent; Anthony Davis: 13 percent; John Wall: 7 percent; "Baylor hired John Wall's AAU coach and that still wasn't enough to get that deal done. That recruitment was on another level. And remember, Roy Williams basically stopped recruiting him. Best player in the country is from North Carolina, and North Carolina didn't really want anything to do with it. What does that tell you?"
