How Will Buzz Williams Handle Our 2019-2020 Recruiting Situation?

Yesterday was the fun part of a coaching change, as videos, interviews, and formal welcome events were scheduled basically non-stop throughout the day.

But now that the dust has settled, we’ve got an interesting recruiting situation to deal with.

We have to start with the unpleasant news - Billy Kennedy’s firing led to the eventual release of our entire 2019 recruiting class. Chris Harris, Kobe Brown, Sahvir Wheeler, and Tyreek Smith asked for (and received) a release from their LOI when the coaching carousel started.

This appears contentious at first glance, but it’s honestly a smart move by these guys (and a smart move by us to allow it).
