    Triple Dub is great but he isn't near the player his dad was.

    Late second rounder though sure. Do we even have any of those left?

    More like top 15 (ranked 15th by ESPN and 16th by 247Sports Composite ranking). I'm not sure this indicates he's a great recruiter. His top two recruits are his own son and the son of one of his assistant coaches. He definitely benefited from some nepotism, but whatever works. Does he have any more kids?

    Who cares? I think he has preven himself to be a great coach. If he turns around the program, more recruits will come.

    I'm just saying, don't count on a top 15 recruiting class every year based on his 2015 class. He had a good 4-year run at Montana, but 9 games into an incredibly weak non-conference schedule is a little early to talk about turning the program around. But, maybe getting his son and his assistant's son will be just what they need to get the program on the national map. Too son to say.

    Is that Gary Payton ii or Gary Payton 11? The Blazers could use a player that goes to 11.

    Wayne Tinkle is far and away the best basketball coach the Beavers have had since Ralph Miller. Now he just needs to be able to recruit to little 'ol Corvallis and the Beavs will be golden.
