Is it fair to wonder whether or not I shot too low since I still have over $60k left?

Well, well, well - guess who's recruiting class was just ranked #5 by CollegiateInsider.com? Nice job! Everybody in the Athletic Department is really excited - I think I'm even getting the administration behind what you're doing. Keep up the good work!

I'm stressing that too.  Lewis should be cake to replace - I already have a couple of SGs, but no SFs left.
