No, my point is Codi is a solid top 100 prospect whether he is more than that is yet to be determined and we should let him get to campus before increasing expectations about him being another Jeff Teague.
We will probably have a couple of guys who exceed expectations and a couple will not be productive at this level. The ACC will be very mediocre again next season and we will have achieved parity with most of the other teams. How do we get to the top tier and contend for championships? I just don't see it happening.
And a class that hovers around 15 to 20 typically isn't an impact class.
This class has three consensus players towards the bottom of the top 100, and we hope that we really have three top 25-50 players in this class.

James was a very unique case because he grew up in frickin Wyoming so nobody saw him play. Under normal circumstances a player with his size and athletic ability would have been ranked much higher.
DC, good point I have never believed we could implement a Butler strategy within the ACC and that was before Syracuse and Pitt joined. When did Wake fans get to have input on this approach? Now we are stuck in the middle of the road. Thanks Ron.
Don't use James Johnson to justify rankings... he was the exception and pretty much everyone called him out as a huge sleeper by the time he got to Wake.
In other words, unless we recruit like UNC or Duke you have no faith that [Redacted] can win with anything less than superstar talent.
I mean, join the club, but you might want to get used to it. We're trying to be Butler, not UNC.

If he didn't win the NBPA MVP or whatever it's called that point might stick. He was seen in a setting with elite talent and was still ranked where he was. I mean he was ranked right about top 60 so it wasn't like he was ranked as a 2 star or anything.
