Venom......the top recruits see it just the way you described. One bad shot and they're on the bench. That's one reason why Tubby whiffs on the top recruits. ( see Hansbrough, Young, Wright, etc ) Nobody who wants to take their game to the next level wants to try to improve their stock playing Tubby ball. I know I sure wouldn't.

You are right on. No high school stud wants to come here and go from averaging 30 to single digits. Playing ball line defense isn't going to get them a lottery pick in the NBA draft. UK has the atheletes to run up and down court and play 4o minutes of "hell" basketball. I don't question Tubby as a coach or person, I just don't like his style of ball and neither do the top high school players in the country.
