Kolek planning to go pro
From what I was told, Herro never showed much interest in Marquette, even when he was visiting unofficially. The comment of "didn't really seem like he wanted to be here" while he was visiting.
Couldn't agree more. Herro has the offense, defense, and swag to enjoy a long NBA career. Just the type of 2 guard this program continues to need.
That would be Grimes
It was actually Big Daddy who said the Hausers told Wojo they wouldn't be comfortable with him
very similar to divincenzo. i think i'd rather have the eyetalian though. both can shoot, but donte is one of quickest white boys i've seen. not sure about herro's defense though doc
I no longer get excited about being mentioned with elite level recruits. If there isn’t a brother involved, this staff hasn’t really shown the ability to close on highly sought after recruits. Howard and Torrence are exceptional cases as they both reclassified and were offered a spot a year earlier than most other major programs would have offered.
It was treated as gospel by Scoopers who were delusional enough to think we were "in" on Herro. It provided an excuse for not getting him. A BS excuse, but an excuse nonetheless.We recruited Herro, he picked UW over us, and when he blew up he decommitted from UW and went "blue blood".
Well, maybe the Hausers would have been (who knows, total speculation) but that didn't stop Wojo and co. from recruiting them. That's a fact.
Marquette offered Herro early. That's true. How many 5-star in-state players have we not offered in the past 20 years?By the time he committed & when he reopened his recruitment, Marquette was no longer involved. Similar to Looney. Similar to Stone. Similar to Tokoto. Just because those players once held a Marquette offer doesn't mean Marquette was putting resources into recruiting them once decision time arrived.
Jay Bilas ( I think it was him) didn't seem so excited yesterday, thought he was taken too high. We'll see how this kid pans out, but I don't see long term career with him unless it is as a specialist.
Yup, and his wingspan is not good either.
I know it is cliche, but heart cannot be measured and this kid plays with a lot of heart. I also give the young man credit for working hard on all aspects of his game. He didn't just settle for being a good shooter.
He's a hell of a baller. I stand firm on my critique of Herro, the basketball player.
He's got major bust potential, don't see it with him at all
This was after we knew Joey was coming. Per Big Daddy and it ended up being prophetical:Surprised we did not hear from Big Daddy over the last couple of days regarding Grimes. Was hoping for insight on what happened and what's the deal with Herro.Guess I will wait to read about in the paper.Goose I lost a sibling last week unexpectedly. Mu is important, but family first. She had a great life and her husband is a fellow warrior. Grimes story will have to wait.Some other items are easier. Sometimes a hypothetical player say player T makes it clear they want to play with players S&J, but that does not mean Players J&S want the same thing Sometimes a player will even switch teams to get away from a player. Coaches know that chemistry is critical.
sorry for your loss news. peace
That was a Big Daddy quote he was the one who lost the sibling
