I think part of that is that we're aiming higher and there is more info on recruiting now than ever before
geez - during most of the altman years we had no clue what was going on recruiting wise - and all of a sudden guys would just show up. And some of that wasn't even that long ago - Cavel was just here one day and even people plugged into the program were 'who the hell is this guy?'
overall we've done pretty well with our transfers - KJ probably being the exception - and man did he look great on paper - and was so athletic. He was also one of my favorite interviews - was always really thoughtful and intelligent with his responses. not sure why he couldn't quite put it all together.
other than that - the transfer market has probably been the key during the Mac era to elevating the program - from Gregory to current Denzel and upcoming AJ teams.
