I must admit I have mixed feelings about recruiting these elite players. Part of what makes this team so special is that we've gotten to know them since they've been here awhile. They're our guys and we love em. With one-and-doners, or even those that stay 2 years, you just don't get to know them and get attached to them. Will it really feel like they're our guys, or just rent-a-players? idk

I think it'll change a little bit, but they won't make up the whole team. Just look at the 2019 class for example. Even if Josiah James is only here two years, Pember and Gaines will be here their full allotment most likely. We'll get plenty attached to those guys, and I don't think all of the highly-rated guys Barnes hauls in will be one-and-done or two-and-done.

No team will be as special as this one. Enjoy the rest of the ride that is this season!
 
If I'm a parent, I want my kid playing for Rick Barnes. He is the best of all worlds. Good coach and role model. I just hope Barnes keeps going after high character guys.

Me too. Apparently Walker is. His family sat with Josiah's family and Josiah's mom said they were a really nice family.
 
Also will Zach Kent ever play or will he transfer? If he leaves we gon be playing small ball next year
