Bennett’s tutoring and playing “D” in the pack-line, will assist him in this endeavor. You are correct, he is seen as anything from a big guard to a 4.
Similar to Michael Porter Jr??
Porter was a more explosive athlete, and had better ball skills. Houstan’s ball skills are about on par with Dre when he arrived. Great if you can iso him with some space to operate but you don’t want him handling in traffic. Of course, Houstan is an ELITE shot maker, which neither of those guys were at this stage.
What time is the cut?
They didn’t give a time yet. Whatever slot Tipton fits him in I guess. haha
It’s getting late CALEB HOUSTAN
The announcement is tomorrow, correct?
Well I’m feeling a tad bit silly right now
No UNC or Gonzaga . Hopefully Patrick Baldwin commits to Duke to officially take them out of the running.
We have a great chance here! Great chance!! He could choose any of the four. However, I will be surprised it it’s Duke!
Quote from Houstan about Virginia from Eric Bossi’s 24/7 article: “I think the relationship with them stands out.” Plus other very glowing words that I won’t quote here. As others have said, we really have a shot here. Maybe Houstan will be CTB’s first 5 star?
I’m a little surprised at Duke over UNC. Probably plays to our hand better that way, but I’m so sick of seeing Duke in general that I was almost rooting for UNC in this case.
Over Duke, of course, not us
This is really going to get interesting!!
Oh wow Bossi left rivals for 24/7. Does rivals have anyone left for basketball?
Brad Franklin seems to cover Hoos hoops.
Is Houstan a one and done type talent, or a 2-3 year player?
Oh yea Brad is great. Just meant for their national guys. Just lost Evans a month or so ago and now Bossi is gone too.
Suddenly some good buzz with Houstan. Lots of mystery still, but people believe there’s a real chance.
I just read it (slow day at work/mostly reading UNC boards for their meltdowns but it isn’t that satisfying). You say we are the only school in the top 4 recruiting him as a guard. Does that mean Houstan and Kaufman together is still on the table?
