Posted: 25th July 2008 by Kenny Colston in Billy Donovan, Billy Gillispie, Bruce Pearl, John Pelphrey, SEC basketball, UK basketballI am a firm believer that 75% of coaching in college basketball is recruiting, and so with that in mind, I’ll rank the 12 coaches in the Southeastern Conference based on their recruiting prowess, then I‘ll do the same with coaching prowess tomorrow.
