2026 Recruiting: Dylan Mingo Official Visit this weekend!

[HW611]

Newton is way better than you give him credit for. Cole was good too. Who cares where they started?

It matters because Cole arrived already being one of the best scorers in the country. Newton arrived as an All-Conference player. They didn’t need Hurley to already be the great players they were.

When it has come to having a guy who is coached exclusively by only him and bringing him on from the beginning, he hasn’t been able to do that yet. And with the talented players we recruit and bring in, I would love to see that.

Especially if we were able to bring in Mingo.

I know it’s hard to defend our HS PG development recently after looking at a list like that. So yeah let’s lock the thread and end the convo lol

I can't believe it's not even October.

Jim Calhoun comparison alert.

But the guy had a blueprint PG training academy for almost 20 years and they all had the same qualities.

Kevin Ollie
KEA
Taliek Brown
Marcus Williams
AJ Price
Kemba
Shabazz
(I’ll even throw in Boatright because he was Calhoun’s recruit coached by his former PG turned assistant coach KO who he taught how to play PG)

They all developed into elite level decision makers, leaders, and can all make plays in the clutch. Every single one. It’s the inverse of development we’ve seen with Hurley where it’s clear those guys were good because of who was coaching them because all the students were successful.

It’s hard to watch that consistently and excuse what we’ve seen out of all the PGs we bring in from HS and blame it on evaluation. Calhoun turned Craig frickin Austrie into a solid PG here for us from Day 1.

Outside of Ollie (I didn’t watch his time here) you can talk about a big time clutch shot each of those guys made (or was trying to be clutch in Marcus case but the other team hit more shots). It’s just crazy the consistency we saw at the position for almost 20 years.

You forgot about Tate.

Even funnier when you ignored the original comment because you knew it was nonsense before it was even typed.

We won't have to defend the HS Point guard development if you...a) shut up or b) go away. You are climbing the ranks of most annoying poster at an alarming rate .
