I just don't see the whole I won't go to x college because I'll be stuck behind y for 3 years deal. If you're good enough, you're going to get PT. If you're better than player y, you'll win the starting job and get more. If recruits only went to schools where they played behind someone for 1 year, then every school would be one disaster away from a terrible season every year, because this wouldn't just be true for PG, but for every spot. And if that was the case, there'd be a heck of a lot of great players who played at smaller schools because the top schools would already have that Sr/Fr combo and when the Fr becomes So and then Jr, they have a crap backup PG? That just doesn't make any sense and you certainly don't see it on teams today.
