I know it is cliché to say "stars don't matter", but when it comes to Basketball recruiting I think it does. In the ACC this year, Duke and UNC each have 6 McDonald AAs. We have Barber. Duke also has Thornton, who I think became ineligible by reclassification, and could have had Rasheed Sulaimon. Yes, recruiting matters and a correlation between mcd aa and championships exists. Gott is doing the right thing to get us in position. Go Pack!
