I’ve heard many comment on this topic … Mostly about how it’s been a position of strength the last 13 years and that PG recruits should see the results and want to come.
A few thoughts … we haven’t had any surefire NBA level PG’s come through since Alexander … maybe Roger Mason? But maybe Roger was a combo guard?
The most talented one athletically is our current PG … maybe that changes things in those types of recruits minds? Wondering…
Really only had 4 main PG’s signed under CTB
