Pettiford = Jeff Teague

Petiford looks like hes worth all the money he got. He got offered a lot and early.

 

[BigErnMcCracken]

Need Baker-Mazzara to punch someone in the face ASAP.

Michigan guards are bad.. Unforced turnovers left and right.

An entertaining podcast host?

Pettiford's got the sauce. Fun player to watch

It shows how inexact high school recruiting rankings are. Pettiford was ranked #29, Nowell was ranked #33.

Michigan pg Donaldson is trash. Total head case trying to prove something to his old team. Keep him off the floor dusty!!!!

 

[aceboon]

Auburn vs Michigan is pure slop

Petiford was ranked top 10, top 5 for most of his high school career. He slipped a bit his senior year because he basically took the year off.

Purdue shouldn't have been placed in the Midwest region

 

[CardiacAndre7]

Both these games are sorta disgusting

The Wolf kid from Michigan looks pretty good. I feel like I've heard about the Michigan Wolf before.

 

[Dooooooomed]

Indiana is gonna come to deeply regret not hiring Dusty May last year.

When? I don't remember that and I followed his recruitment. He was ranked in the 40's on 247 in 2022, ranked in the 30's and 20's in '23 and finished ranked 29th in '24.

Donaldson must be point shaving blue chips style. He’s the worst high major guard I’ve ever seen. He is incapable of making a good play

 

[Shine21]

Pettiford reminds me of Brandon Jennings. If we had a guard like that we'll be on our way to the Elite 8.

 

[CardiacAndre7]

Finally some other guys stepped up on Auburn outside of Broome. Jones and Pettiford have been insane

 

[HCCForever]

Nice shot by Pettiford when it liked like a turnover and then the fall away

He's ridiculously good. It kills me he chose Auburn over UConn with the relationship Hurley had with him.

Yup, take him off Auburn and add him to our roster this year, we still be playing and Auburn would be home. Dynamic lead guard is exactly what we were missing this year.

Me too, bruh. Look at my post titled within the "more I watch" thread.

And he's only 6-1. Just saying.

I followed his recruitment too. Tre Johnson was the consensus #1 recruit. Petiford was between #7 and 12 on most boards.

Hurley's biggest lost recruiting battle recently.

I figure I'm not the only person who spent some energy this season wishing for Nowell to be the guy who made us say, "Yeah, can you believe we wanted Tahaad Pettiford?"
