The Sleepers podcast did a short piece on AJs recruitment recently and talked about how weird it’s been, as he doesn’t talk to anyone, his dad does. They mentioned a quote from AJ around UConn where they offered him early, but then never reached out since. How do you know a kid is a fit if his dad does all the talking? My sense with him aligns with some recent quotes from Hurley where he said the challenge now that we are the shiney program is to keep getting the guys that fit the ilk, and not fall for the shiney recruit. I get a sense that everything is intentional with Hurley - if you want to come win, and get better, you come to us. If we have to chase you, if you’re an odd bird or it appears your singular goal is a bag on your way to the NBA, you’re not for us. I get the feeling this applies to Dysbantsa. He’s also bounced from team to team at the HS level. I don’t think there is a program in the country that puts more emphasis on character right now than Hurley’s and this guy doesn’t seem to fit the bill. And I love him for it.
