Top hoops recruits constantly battling negative recruiting tactics
Posted Sep 28, 2012
As the top ranked player in the Rivals150, Julius Randle has had to deal with "an unreal amount" of negative recruiting tactics. Some coaches said that Duke and North Carolina didn't properly develop players, while others said Kentucky was too crowded. "It's crazy," Randle said. "But I have a mind of my own. Every school has pros and cons and the same school that's dissing a certain school isn't talking about their cons. I look at it as the coaches just hating." Still, sometimes, even hating yields some degree of truth.
