We say it every year, but the high school recruiting is getting ridiculous. It’s one thing to actually transfer the right way but when actual Coaches are involved in the recruiting process, it’s a joke.

If UCONN wins National Title next week, that’d be five since 1999. Now that’s a winning program. Different coaches but still wins. Who cares about Final Fours, Elite 8s, and NBA Draft Picks if you’re not winning the hole chabang.

I’ve been in the newspaper business for 26 years, and some things that I have seen recently in the media, nationally or even statewide, just makes me shake my head. How things have changed over the years. Our goal is to cover the student-athletes, athletes, programs and schools.

I’m so tired of the poor attempt of some certain media members that pretend to know what’s going on with the UK men’s b’ball program. Most were clueless of what was going on last week, yet some continue to “know” what’s going on. No u don’t. Things will happen when they happen.
