CBS article: Dirtiest player recruitments in the last decade

[Randy Parker]

Shabazz ranks first, followed by Anthony Davis & John Wall. Kyle Anderson & O.J. Mayo round out the top five.

 

Critical Coaches: Which player's recruitment is perceived dirtiest of past decade? - CBSSports.com

[gametime]

JaKarr Sampson was the worst hands down, but he isn't a high profile kid. He got 50K, didn't qualify and got 50K again from St Johns the second time around...

CBS sure is on a dirty/cheater kick here lately. I thought Thamel and all those guys went to SI not CBS sports?

[Big Slick]

Nothing to write about, so they are trying to stir the pot.

Haters gonna hate.

[Getslow]

Recruiting is creepy.

Those guys must really be bored to just write baseless articles that appear to be opinion only. Way too slanted to hate on UK IMO.

 

Mayo and Rose should be higher than anyone from UK IMO.

[mobaar]

Just slanted towards recent players who's names made the news.

[D-Rob]

Makes me uneasy that 4 of the 10 were Cal players.

[Colonels_Wear_Blue]

I feel like this stuff is worthless jilted coach bull crap.

 

How is OJ Mayo – who the NCAA actually investigated, found improper benefits, sanctioned USC, and put the ole ‘show cause’ scarlet letter on then coach Tim Floyd for cheating – not “perceived” as the dirtiest recruitment? It was proven to be a dirty recruitment...

 

This hit piece from CBS isn’t even worth getting up in arms about (except that CBS would stoop to "anonymous" rumor mongering for website hits.) This is the college baskeball coach equivalent of a clique of high school girls’ burn book…”you know who has the biggest butt...?”

[Michael Corleone]

And not on player signed by Jim Calhoun made the list.

[Clyde]

I didn't read the list. Did Kyle Anderson make the list?

#4 behind Muhammad, Davis and then Wall.

I'm beginning to think Roy Williams and Coach K are the only 2 coaches that are voting in these polls.

Wow. Now there's some jealousy.
