Is Fran building a regional powerhouse or just calling Iowa fans idiots and morons?

[CyTwins]

I think he is. I would bet all the top 6 are prioritizing Carton. Fran definitely has his faults, but to nitpick that comment and turn it into him not making Carton a top target is quite a stretch.

Again, he has been in person at more of his AAU games that any member of any staff that is recruiting him.

Carton literally said 3 other schools are making him a priority over Fran...

Nothing to see here. Fran is a tireless recruiter. Lol

So Kakert didn't confirm top 3 like you originally said?

I noticed @YeahBuddy glossed over this. Why would someone not answer a simple question?

He's more flustered about the DJ thing than Cook right now I think. Not sure I can blame him

Look, if you want to read all of Kakert's post, pony up for a HR membership. I am not going to copy and paste it over here. There are rules.

It's just that you lied saying Kakert confirmed Iowa was top 3 and then later said that Iowa or Indiana could be the third team. Just seems like a weird thing to lie about.

Why anyone would pay for Kakert's stuff is mind blowing to me. Fran works harder on the recruiting trail than Kakert does getting info

 

[VeloClone]

So I'll ask again @YeahBuddy, how is Fran not making Carton a priority?

The statements aren't mutually exclusive. Fran could be recruiting Carton harder than he is recruiting anyone else. But the other coaches mentioned could be recruiting Carton harder than Fran is. I mean, look at his results, it wouldn't shock me to learn that Fran doesn't work terribly hard at recruiting.

I think Randy sets the bar pretty low on effort, his columns read like bar gossip.

So, how many times have you been banned on HR?

Thats not really what he said, he said those three are making him a top priority. Apparently it was a Facebook Q & A:

DJ: I feel as if Ohio state Indiana and Michigan are making me a high priority but the whole recruiting process has been a good learning experience and it’s been an honor although it’s been stressful at times it’s something I will cherish forever.

LJ: You released a top 6 describe what stands out about the listed teams:

Iowa: Iowa is special, the fan base is great and it’s an in state school. Definitely a lot of support there and I’ve gotten to know the team and recruits real well.



DJ: Ohio State: Ohio State has such a rich history with left handed guards and I feel like coach Holtmann is one of the best.



Michigan: coach Beilein is great at developing guards and they have a young team with a lot of talent and will continue to win.



Marquette: Marquette is super young and very talented and has a great system with a great coach.



Indiana: Indiana is rich with a winning tradition and is turning the program around. Got good talent and a crazy atmosphere



Xavier: Xavier is a new group with a lot of young guys and good talent coming in. At the end of the day they win and get the job done.

Fan base, great? Lot of support? Lol for Iowa, when’s the last time he was in Carver?!

Not once. I actually don't mind Kakert he's just wrong a lot

 

[Knownothing]

Honestly Kakert seems like a normal nice guy. He don’t do recruiting very well. He reports on the season well. He just don’t seem to have a good source

Bingo. He doesn't have sources and panders to his crowd but he seems like a good guy. We're really spoiled to have Halsted and CW

So TK is basically like looking in a mirror for you.

I don't claim to have a bunch of sources

Glad I wasn't drinking anything while reading this. I would have ruined my keyboard.

Duh.... read the thread title.

How do you know that Fran has been to more of his AAU games? You stalking Fran and Carton or what? If you know Fran has been to more of his AAU games than any member of any staff, you really are "obsessed".

Maybe that’s how yeahbuddy Is able to be on here so much. Sitting at schools stalking recruits and mooching WiFi off them. As much data as CF eats, it would burn through any data plan in day s the way he is planted in here.

That's actually a good question
