Very Early Prediction
I know this is extremely early, but I believe Mike Williams will be a First Team All Big East selection for the 07/08 Season. With a season to do nothing but practice under Mick Cronin, I see him coming out of his transfer year a player ready to contribute and in a system that will take full advantage of his talents.

The short answer is yes. He was the lead recruiter for both Huggins and Pitino
Here is a blurb from his bio
Quote:
Cronin launched his coaching career on the college level in 1997-98 at Cincinnati when he was promoted from video coordinator to assistant coach. He made an immediate impact as a recruiter, playing a key role in signing five Bearcats who went on to be NBA draft picks: Steve Logan, two-time Conference USA Player of the Year (Golden State); DerMarr Johnson, Parade Magazine National Prep Player of the Year and C-USA Freshman of the Year (Atlanta); Pete Mickeal, a junior college national player of the year selection (Dallas); Kenny Satterfield, a McDonald's All-American (Dallas); and Jason Maxiell (Detroit).
Cronin helped UC attract Top 5-rated recruiting classes in two of his last three seasons and another that was ranked in the Top 10. His work as a coach helped UC compile a 108-26 record, capture five C-USA regular season titles and a pair of tournament crowns.
Cronin left UC to become associate head coach and recruiting coordinator at Louisville in 2001-02. In his very first year, he helped attract a Top 10 recruiting class. One of his key signees, Francisco Garcia, was the C-USA Freshman of the Year in 2003 and eventually was drafted by Sacramento.
Cronin was recognized as one of the top assistant coaches in the nation by a number of sports publications. He was rated as the top assistant coach in the nation in 2002-03 by Athlon and the top assistant in Conference USA by Lindy's. That same year, The Sporting News named him the top recruiting assistant in the nation and the top assistant in C-USA.
