He missed on a PG named Sean Dockery to go along with Travon Bryant, Arthur Johnson and Rickey Paulding....so he got Wesley Stokes.
Wes started out pretty effectively but had trouble shooting, and when teams played zone defense....we kind of stunk.
Had Quin stuck with Stokes instead of recruiting Ricky Clemons over the top of him, his career at Mizzou might've turned out differently.
I don't know that a higher percentage than normal of Quin's guys turned out to be busts, though, we had some great players come through. It's just that his teams didn't play all that well.
I'd say his busts might be -
Najeeb Echols
Kalen Grimes
Wesley Stokes
Duane John
The tall skinny Canadian named Ferguson
He had his share of pretty good players, too:
Kareem Rush*
Paulding
Johnson
Bryant
Clemons (before he went nuts)
Linas Kleiza
Jason Conley
Thomas Gardner
Jimmy McKinney
A couple could go either way - Marshall Brown and Jason Horton come to mind.
