Larry Sanders, 6-10, C, Jr., VCU: Shaka Smart coveted the VCU gig for a number of reasons. Just look where the past two coaches have landed: Jeff Capel went to Oklahoma and Anthony Grant to Alabama. Also making it hard to resist going to the Rams was the talent of Sanders still on the roster. The Rams lost guard Eric Maynor, who beat Duke in the NCAA tournament and was one of the top guards in the country in his past two seasons. But Sanders' presence in his first two seasons was hard to miss. He blocked 95 shots as a freshman and swatted 92 as a sophomore. His pogo-like jumping ability make him an intimidating presence from the opening tip.
