So as a casual recruiting follower why should I be excited about a 3 star recruit rated just inside the top 400 with a couple offers from mid tier P5 programs? On paper this guy looks like the next future transfer to leave without impacting the program.
Are they top-20 programs? Is such a list just the current rankings?I didn’t realize Maryland, Seton Hall and Auburn were mid tier?
I wonder when they will update his recruiting rankings? He has some other good offers, but that 247 rating, YIKES!!!! He would be one of the worst recruits of the Prohm era as of right now, so I see your point.

They aren't top ten type blue bloods, and they aren't power conference bottom feeders. That leaves them as mid tier power conference programs. Teams that will make the tourney and show up in a top 25 poll more seasons than not, but not perennial contenders.
Always better to judge by the offers not the ranking especially for late risers. If the staff went by rankings and not their evaluation Tyrese wouldn't be a clone. Then again you may have been concerned with his signing 2 years ago too.
Auburn, Marquette, Maryland and Notre Dame recruit and get 4-5 star talent and wouldn't be offering and actively recruiting Dubar late if he wasn't at that potential talent level.
Sleep easy, he has talent.
So by this definition you aren't excited about a recruit with mid-tier offers committing to your mid-tier school?They aren't top ten type blue bloods, and they aren't power conference bottom feeders. That leaves them as mid tier power conference programs. Teams that will make the tourney and show up in a top 25 poll more seasons than not, but not perennial contenders.
Why?
Luke Anderson was also a 3 star recruit. He was rated around 200th in the nation, 150ish spots higher. He had offers from KSU, UGA, Georgia Tech, Ole Miss, Minnesota, and Xavier, plus a bunch of mid majors. On paper he looks like the better recruit. He just left before his first game.
Jump over to the transfer thread and there a plenty of posters talking about how they never understood his signing in the first place or how he was recruited over. Yet on paper here he looks like the better recruit than Dubar. If the only case to the contrary is his recruiting videos than spare me, everyone at this level has nice highlight videos.
I hope he turns out to be a great Clone, but I just don't see much reason to get excited today. This just looks like another dime a dozen signing for a major conference hoops program.

I would call that something better than mid tier. Iowa is a mid tier program. Those programs are on whatever level is above that.
Don’t think that are related as much as people think. The idea was always to oversign by two with the idea TH would leave and one player would transfer. Still think we will need one more signee after Foster. Good get by the staff.
Is Iowa in the mid-tier of the P5 conferences If so, Fran is doing a hell of a job.I would call that something better than mid tier. Iowa is a mid tier program. Those programs are on whatever level is above that.
I don't often use the dumb button, but made an exception on this one.

Relax, although it was amiss in terms of recruiting, it wasn’t an anti-Prohm or inaccurate statement.

Kansas State has 9 bids with 2 Elite 8's.Seton Hall has made the dance 3 times since 2000, they have advanced past the opening weekend once. Auburn has 4 tourney appearances since 2000, with last year's final 4 run as their only trip past the opening weekend.
Iowa has 7 appearances in that span, but no trips beyond the first weekend.
I would say those schools are very much in the same tier.
Maryland has 12 bids with 4 runs beyond the same weekend. Probably on a higher tier, but not quite elite.
ISU for reference has 10 bids and 3 trips beyond opening weekend. Considering that time span covers the dark years of Morgan and McD, we compare pretty favorably to all these programs.

Nothing to be ashamed about. I'm insecure about mine.I'm insecure about this staff?
