Arizona and Tyler Dorsey Part Ways

Looks okay to me at all the tools - pass, shoot, handle, decent athlete - not saying he's the best choice for certain but the fact is none of us know who is……..I like Adams a lot but doesn't mean Dorsey won't bet better. Who's to know other than I'd take him in a second if he wanted to be a Husky!
 
I put a little more burden on the talented lead guard to lead his team. St John Bosco was barely over .500 with three elite prospects (suffering most of their losses within the state of California, so the national schedule didn't have much to do with it). Now some of that could be bad coaching, or maybe just as much Hamilton's fault and/or the difficulty that the two of them had co-existing. But to me, if Dorsey is a top 10 recruit and has two scorers like Hamilton and Jackson around him, I want to see the team regularly win. Maybe that's not fair to put that burden on Dorsey, and maybe Adams wouldn't have been any better in that situation against that competition. But it gave me some pause about Dorsey as an elite (top 20) prospect as a lead guard if he wasn't able to get that team to win in high school. Not enough to turn him down by any means - it just means that perhaps he'd need to ride shotgun in college and he might not think of himself as a shotgun guy.

I will freely admit that this opinion is based on no direct observation or anything and might be completely offbase - but the fact that Dorsey's stock is dropping, and Arizona has looked elsewhere, is some circumstantial evidence to support my hunches. But, then again, Boat was on his way to WV until they took Hinds and we got the better end of that deal, so I'll trust the coaching staff to prioritize properly.

Just stating my opinion. Superjohn said it perfectly. Dorsey is just an average to me. I would rather have T Sam or Cassell Jr running the show. This board you can't stay anything without people getting personal,just sad.

I didn't get personal at all, I just don't think you've ever seen the kid play if mike bibby is your comparison. Their games do not resemble each other in any respect.
 
You never know what you have in most cases until they hit the floor with a Uconn jersey on. So many players do not live up to the hype and others like T Sam last surpass them.
 
Wasn't Dorsey suspended or ineligible a couple games for grades right around the hoophall this past yr? Or atleast that's what a cali writer said because he missed the trip to springfield.

SJB was 23-11 and 7-3 in conference with most of their losses coming against powerhouse competition. They finished the year ranked #7 in the state, #21 in the country and won the div 2 CA state championship

My bad - I thought they were around 16-11 and I didn't look it up before I posted. I didn't follow them after they didn't qualify for the top tournament so I missed their run through Division II.
