In today's RJ OTZ talked about his philosophy of recruiting. Some quotes:
“I put zero credence into (recruiting stars),”
“I’m good friends with many who rank and evaluate players. But it’s mostly based on height and athleticism and physical attributes. It doesn’t take into account the mental aspects that are so important. I want guys who fit our program, and that has nothing to do with how many stars they have."
“Marvin Coleman has the qualities we try and identify. He understands it’s not about him. He’s a player you can tell the truth to and he accepts it. He has a network around him that supports the coaches. Those traits are all important and harder to come by in 2020.”
