Interesting that Hunter Dickinson, who was recruited by Ewing, was part of this podcast: This was generally true from day one, which is why Sodom was the best center we could land followed by the disastrous three project center class. Better to have a proven college coach than a celebrity. Lesson learned the hard way.

Parents/advisors are impressed by Ewing (or were for a moment). You can see it with Aminu’s guy and, until recently, Riley’s dad.

You finally state something good about Ewing. 😂 It’s not good or bad, it just is. People who are old enough to have college aged kids remember Pat Ewing the player. College aged kids don’t but are influenced by the adults. I’d assume that, by now, the utter failure that is Pat Ewing the coach is enough to overcome whatever fondness the adults have for the player.

Parents of recruits who saw Ewing play for GU or NYK, can’t resist the photo op. After the initial excitement key recruits have gone elsewhere (RJ Davis, Cole Anthony, etc.)

“How much did Nick put in the bag?” Beyond board rules, I would think. Mods?

Pat and the staff might as well recruit at the Yates courts.

If Pat and the staff might as well recruit at the Yates courts. The only thing that would draw even yates players is the free schooling, other than that it’s only downsides like getting embarrassed on national television, burning study and interview time, and being blamed by your coach

Pat really hasn’t been able to recruit high school seniors straight up. He’s landed de-commits, transfers and fifth-year seniors. Most of the de-commits ended up transferring.

Pat: Hey kid, you want to come to GU?
Kid: Naw, I'm good.
Pat: Ok.
