Rafer Alston's kid, Reese. He's probably a top-10 or top-15 national recruit and one of the top 2 or 3 PGs.
I like how UH operates when it comes to transfers. Hard to win with 5* recruits especially at skill positions. Those guys are 3-5 year NBA bloomer guys not successful college players. Cooper being the obvious exception. Kingston and Cenac were talented but flawed and they gave UH a lower floor and ceiling they didnt have with the LJ Cryer/Marcus Sasser/Jamal Shead teams. UH should be a much better squad next year.
No idea where he goes - but if Sampson will be on the sideline for the next 3-4 years, Lue literally couldn't go to a better school to prepare for playing as a professional.
If IU has the new football model of winning in the NIL era, then maybe there's a new hoops model, which isn't that different from the old for the non-rich schools.
I think this incoming class has longevity. This is where Kelvin Sampson thrives best. With young men that are committed to the program, and are willing to learn the game. 5 star recruits aren’t what they used to be! One and done leaves a lot to be desired.
It always seems like left-handed shooters are pretty good at shooting - Conley, Kukoc, Mullins, Stoudamire. Deandre Jordan of course is the exception to this rule. Tyus seems to have a nice touch. Also, going forward, no more than ONE one-and-done player per year.
He's not an elite level recruit and he's tiny in stature (he's been injured a few times), but he seems to have most of everything else Sampson wants, and like he says, he'll help push everybody else. And just because you're not a 5* recruit, doesn't mean you won't be a good player, and, of course, just because you are a 5* recruit doesn't guarantee squat. We've seen that already :
He is basically 6'3" --- which is perfectly fine for a point guard. I don't think he is done growing either, wouldn't be shocked to see him grow another inch or two. His wingspan is mediocre to bad, but he plays primarily with his feet anyway. He could fall a few spots because he doesn't have insane measurables. He could go in the 7-10 range. He is someone that would be a good fit for the Rockets. He plays very hard, he is a willing defender and his shot is improving and he is a legitimate court general. I expect teams to talk themselves into Acuff, Brown and maybe even Andersen ahead of Flemings. Whatever --- Flemings was the best point guard I saw this year. Acuff is a better scorer, but Flemings is a superior passer and defender.
