I'm starting to agree with this. Before, I thought I'd prefer MAL but he was very unimpressive this past weekend. He was sloppy and played lazy defense. Now I'll take Tremont. Waters+Adams+Gilbert+HamD=Crazy good.
This is lunacy. Nearly every player in the country occasionally has a game where they look sloppy and uninterested. ESPECIALLY on the AAU circuit.

He seems like an exact mini-shabazz replica, right down to the shooting stroke and poise with the rock. I like MAL, but have been wishing for years that Tremont stays in CT.

Nice little mix of Waters. He does have some handle. Reminds me of Boat.



a little boat in waters ... couldnt resist... i see a little of that in this clip, but the biggest thing boat had was heart and toughness, if waters has half of that we're good

Lots of movement toward Indiana on the crystal ball.

One of those guys is a writer for an IU site. Meyer is noteworthy. As noteworthy as any crystal ball pick is, I suppose.

I'll happily take either. The fact that Waters is a better shooter and more likely to be around for four years makes me prefer him, but I won't spend a single second being disappointed if we have to "settle" for MAL instead.

I agree both are good players - my bias is always with a guy who can shoot, knows the game and plays hard. Waters checks all 3 of those boxes. MAL is longer and more athletic - doesn't means Waters isn't athletic but he just doesn't have that length.

Both Scout analysts Snow and Daniels believe that Indiana is the team to beat for his service, they seem to think they are the clear leader, but that this is not over yet.

If Mal goes to ville and Waters to Indiana, this could be a disastrous start to recruiting

Starting to seem like the only way we don't get MAL is if we get Scruggs

I don't see how UConn isn't the clear leader, it's just that we aren't committing to him. Which I think is a big mistake not to. He is the best pure point guard I have seen at his age in a LONG time and is in-state. The type of player who will stay in college for four years and make a huge impact on a program.

Seeing his latest crystal ball prediction going to Indiana, Is he talking about UConn and Ollie?

and I thought I read too much into things on Twitter.

The Indiana picks are directly correlated with this interview:

Literally 10 mins after it was posted the 247 guys started changing their picks to Indiana.

Seems pretty pessimistic to take that away from one stray retweet.

Hey! I went there for a year.

Not really known for their basketball, though...

He's going to NDWH? He's from New Haven, he should go to Cross or Hillhouse. Preferable to Cross since I went there but Cross and Hillhouse are always power houses.

He's looking at Duke and was enamored with Stanford for a time. Not trying to speak ill of either school (a lot of my relatives went to Wilbur Cross), but I'd have to say that NDWH is superior academically, which may matter to his family.

You think this means anything? Any UConn connection (or other) to this school?

I doubt it. ND-WH isn't a basketball powerhouse by any means; he's just from the area.
