Looking at his top 5, he would be challenged for playing time no matter where he went.

Marquette: Behind Mayo (1 year) and JJJ (3 years)


You are assuming that only one SG can be on the court at the same time.  If the guy can shoot, he will play.

When talking with Ahmed, he stressed the "right feeling" and a father / son relationship when looking at schools. I think he's confident enough and smart enough to know that things can change anywhere... if he's digging the idea of hard work, MU should certainly be in play.

One of those players who is solid all around (Trent Lockett like in that regard, perhaps). Can help in a number of ways.
Thanks for ruining summer, Canada.

Yep, nothing wrong with too many good shooters.

We certainly could have used some of them last March.

Absolutely. But we are crowded in the 2, 3, and 4. I was more looking at if being the starting SG was important to him as a player. A player of his skill would obviously get playing time. But many get caught up in needing to be the starter. I have no idea what's important to Ahmed. But if it is a "father/son relationship" like JayBee pointed out, then you gotta believe that Buzz is the right coach for him.

Well, Crean can certainly work his relationship with Dwayne to some advantage there.
You actually have a degree from Marquette?

Quote from: muguru
No...and after reading many many psosts from people on this board that do...I have to say I'm MUCH better off, if this is the type of "intelligence" a degree from MU gets you. It sure is on full display I will say that.

Just tell him to steer clear of F*ckin'. It's common knowledge how his "father/son" relationships have gone in the past.

We now know we are in his final 5: https://twitter.com/nextuprecruits/status/372500599562317824

Would be a great get and be a nice player to add to the stable of guard switchables.
excerpt


Ahmed Hill, a class of 2014 guard from Augusta, Ga., trimmed his list to five on Tuesday and Indiana made the cut, along with Florida, Florida State, Marquette and Missouri.

“Of those five schools, me and the head coach have a great relationship, they’re basketball schools, and I think that I can help them out tremendously and I’d fit into their program,” Hill told Inside the Hall of the finalists.

He’s expected to take official visits to all five finalists, but said that Florida, Marquette and Missouri are recruiting him hardest right now.

Certainly both are more well known for FB, but under Donovan and Hamilton, both schools have been in the upper tier of BB schools as well.
