I look at the following as one of our best recruiting classes ever. We had an entire roster turn over other than Phil Pressey from guys who took the court the prior year, so we needed a massive talent influx but also guys who were ready to contribute immediately. It was also done under the cloud of uncertainty involving the Nevin Shapiro allegations, and with Mike Alden doing his customary not standing behind his coaches and creating uncertainty and administrative hurdles.

Alex Oriakhi
Keion Bell
Earnest Ross
Ryan Rosburg
Stefan Jankovic
Tony Criswell
Negus Webster Chan
Dominique Bull
Now if you narrow the scope of that class to only incoming freshman, you could say that was a rather underwhelming class and Tim Fuller didn't do a very good job. But in reality it was a huge recruiting haul and exactly what the program needed, and one of the best incoming classes in program history.
