I'm almost certain that empty promises were made to keep the recruiting class together. What I wonder is why the **** they did that. Continued to host recruiting weekends, make offers and accept commitments as if getting the HC job was going to come with a stipulation that the new guy was going to accept that. If the folks at CU didn't realize that the type of HC we needed was going to do his own evaluations and not come in thinking that KD had stocked the cupboard, then I don't know what to say. And that makes me assume that it was an intentional, cold-blooded lie.The article is pretty old by now, so it may not be accurate as to how many have signed elsewhere or will sign elsewhere. The major thrust of the article was that RG allegedly was telling recruits not to bail while the coaching search was going on with a promise that they'd still have a spot with whomever was ultimately hired. They were not saying they left because of Prime, but rather they were upset that they waited out the process only to be cut loose towards the end when they had fewer options to pursue. RG's quote in the article was mad squirrelly, so I have to assume there's some truth to what the old recruits are saying.
