They out recruit us EVERY year. We are ALWAYS ranked near the bottom of the conference in recruiting EVERY year. So, if nothing else, just shows that maybe AK isn't doing such a bad job after all. Other than Saiz, what other player would start for other teams? That will hopefully change as we recruit to the new arena.
It is unbelievable that in YEAR ELEVEN of a coach's tenure, the biggest defense of the mediocre play of his team is that it is LESS TALENTED than most other conference teams. That is not a defense, that is an indictment. Spin it how you want, but that is pitiful.
He also has a better record than most the other league teams since he's been here. I think only Fla. and Ky. have more SEC wins than we do since AK got here. Not making excuses, just stating that he's doing more with less. And that appears to be fact, no matter how u spin it. That's why he deserves the change to show what he can do with decent facilities. To see what kind of players he can get here with the new arena. And so for it's looking promising. He still has to win, and he hopefully gets that chance. Like I said, he's earned it.
u can never judge a book by how it chews its food
