Gosh, we’ve missed on a LOT of recruits in this class. Thought Dunn would pick Stanford. I don’t think we are a favorite for any one of the remaining targets either.

I remain hopeful that when all is said and done we will have another amazing recruiting class.  We should be at our strongest ever recruiting wise.  You get an amazing Stanford education.  We just won a national championship.  Very much a team focus vs star player focus.  And you know you are going to be playing with very talented teammates like #1 recruit Betts.

Same here -- plus of those who opted otherwise, we don't really know the reason (proximity to home, prior relationships, expected playing time, admissions) so remaining optimistic.

I am somewhat more cautious. I thought we were in a similar situation a decade ago. Even though we didn't have a national title then, we had gone to five straight Final Fours, was seen as one of the few challengers to UConn's dominance and we had the star power of the Ogwumikes, but it took us 7 recruiting classes after Chiney to land another top-10 recruit in Williams.

You can never be too sure, while we have been very lucky in landing a series of top recruits recently, including a top-3 in three of the last four recruiting classes, you can never tell when the well might dry up suddenly and unexpectedly.
