But I'm just saying that I don't think it's Sam's health that is the reason for recruiting Obadiah.
I agree 100% that Sam's health has nothing to do with this. The uncomfortable truth of being a program trying to grow into the upper echelons is that we are going to recruit over kids from time to time. I know this probably makes some people squirm a little, I will admit I am not completely comfortable with it but it is the reality of business. Sam Miller seems like a really good kid, but in two years, I have seen enough to be of the opinion that he is not the answer at the 4 if we have the opportunity to improve at that position. Archie should have taught us that this is all business to some extent, (I say to some extent because I am not going to go so far as to say that we should treat 18-19 year old kids as assets to do with as we please), but UD needs to approach things from a business perspective as well. If not, we will be that school that always treats its kids well but gets crapped on by players and coaches.
