He had that from the beginning.
And so with each one of them, you knew they were special at a certain point.
And with Jalen, I talked to Calipari last week.
He said that you guys were competing, that you both were recruiting Jalen Brunson.
Did he call you, I think, from a tournament like West Virginia and said, hey, I'm coming after the same guy you're going after?
Yeah, we always did.
We would always talk about recruiting, and we never beat him β
ever for a recruit.
Usually the guys we would get
that he was recruiting, at some point he would make a decision to go after somebody else.
He even has a place at the Jersey Shore in Lavalette and not in Ocean City where I go to because he was looking in Ocean City and I said, dude, I have to deal with you all year.
I can't come down to my Jersey Shore spot and look at you again.
So you can't stay in Ocean City, pick anywhere but Ocean City.
But it's really true, we never beat them.
There was a point at the end, I can't remember who they got,
But they kind of went in another direction, which allowed us to kind of get Jalen.
But we were talking the whole time.
We're talking to Jay Wright, Hall of Fame coach and former Villanova head coach winning national championships there.
