Sam, what's your source for this? ESPN doesn't list Arizona as one of Davis's offers, just Oregon.
Most of Ryan's offers were not from true basketball elite, apart from Villanova (which, as I've already said, is one of the few system schools) and Michigan.
Kisunas's offer list does not include Arizona either.
Wills' ESPN recruit profile appears empty.
And I don't think anyone would classify U$C as basketball elite...just a fun place to spend a year in downtown LA before turning pro.
Until the one and done era is over, which may be very soon, I really don't think we will be top-of-the-conference competitive year in, year out.
And honestly, none of those recruits were consensus top 30 recruits in their class, so I think my point stands - we are not giving offers to top recruits and winning in recruiting battles against top programs. The closest we had to a one-and-done was KZ and he was really under the radar as a recruit, does not seem destined for a great pro career, and while he was flashy at times, his turning pro early was a kind of addition through subtraction, as we seemed to be much more cohesive on both sides of the ball without him.
