Wright is a 6'9" mega-whale and primary target in '22.

What does Haase continue telling elite recruits after proving he can't win with them or improve their draft position?

Whales don't need to "improve their draft position." They already have one and just go through the motions for a year.

3 draftees in 3 straight years. One of whom was never supposed to be an NBA-caliber talent (Terry), and one of whom was only offered by Stanford in HS (Okpala).

What is UConn telling their MBB recruits? They signed 3 Isa Silva-level recruits and 2 more the year before. They made the tournament ONCE in the last 5 seasons (this past one, in which they lost in the first round) and have had zero players drafted in that span.

Nebraska signed a whale and they are horrible. (He's from South Carolina. No connection to the program.)

 

I agree about Stanford's pitch to recruits, but just had to nitpick on UCONN and Nebraska. The whale Nebraska has signed is the younger brother of their current starting PG, so that's why they landed Bryce McGowens. UCONN will have a lottery pick in this year's draft in James Bouknight and Dan Hurley has UCONN on the uptick, they should be tournament good from here on out.
