PG Noah Hutchins from NY
- Thread starter perryhawk
- Start date
Thanks Perry. I really like Noah's tape. I don't know about the competition, but he seems to bring a lot of what Iowa needs--he can take the ball to the basket, sees his teammates and delivers dimes. He also has really nice length and takes pride in playing defense (a novel thing to see on a highlight tape). The tape didn't show his outside shot, but he can score at the basket and uses both hands very well.
Love the passing and handles. This team needs players like that who can break down the defense and deliver the ball to open players.
Here's a HawkCentral article:

If Fran could get Carton and Brooks that would be a real coup considering their other offers. fingers crossed.....

I would be thrilled if we got anyone on that list. Fran's problem has always been that we rarely get our primary targets and are left scrambling.
I hope the worm turns for us.
I hate to say it, but both of these guys "look" like better players than Locure. They are both athletic, taller, and play with good effort on defense.
Beverly's tape looked a lot better than the NY kid....and now I understand why. He's a MSU lean. Ugh.
MSU just settled for $500 million for Dr. Nassar abuse, so they might not have as much money as normal to pay players.
Is Hutchins only 5-11? He looks taller on his tape. Beverly is taller and definitely likes to take it to the hoop. Either look like pretty good fall backs or additions to Carton.
What happens when you offer a kid like this, he commits and then one of the other guys want to come and we don't have room? That's why you can't offer all of them.
It would not be such a bad thing if we got two guards in the 2019 class, especially if Fran and Patrick are OK with using that scholarship for another player.
Oh the money does not come from the school. It comes from "friends of the program".
If you get a chance to get a NY guard with that much talent and athleticism, You should offer. NY kid would bring what the Hawks sorely need at a leadership position like the point.. that is mental toughness and poise in physical games. If they offer and get Hutchins I would be very happy. Get Carton as well...wow.
Who knew that Buffalo NY was such a hotbed for teaching mental toughness and poise?
I think when most people think of New York Basketball they forget New York is a State and not just NYC. Not every kid grew up honing their skills in the street.
Leaders usually stay to finish their jobs. City kids usually have more competition, but I don't think it really matters. Larry Bird was from French Lick.

Not sure about the poise part, but you gotta be somewhat mentally tough just to live in Buffalo.
I think L. Wade brought up Dickerson because he was a NY PG, before one of his many stops. As the old saying goes, "When the going gets tough".....................
Oh I get it, every rural kid is Larry Bird now... See this game works both ways.
By the way, I researched this kids game a little bit. That’s where I got the toughness and poise from. And the fact that it’s a culture thing in basketball state wide in New York. No... it might not apply to every player all the time, but I believe even few reviews of state title tourney film might convince even the mightiest internet troll.
By the way Buffalo is not some utopia...and yes I was aware he went to Park high school there.

Maybe because good PGs have not exactly been knocking Iowa's doors down to commit the last 8 years
You offer all of them. The first one that commits, you take and then alert the rest that they no longer have offers. Not rectal science.
Exactly. Recruiting is easy. I used to sign the best class in NCAA on Xbox every year. No reason Fran shouldn't be able to do the same.
I would love to see 2 guards in the 2019 class, probably not 3, and at least one of the two needs to be able to play tough on-ball defense.
My comment had nothing to with actually getting them to sign. Just how you go about offering multiple prospects to fill one spot. How you got where you are from my comment is of your own making.
I don't want to see any perimeter players brought in that don't play defense anymore. Don't care how well they shoot.
If your ftball team has had multiple issues with a Quarterback, you take multiple quarterbacks.
I don't understand why we don't do that with Point Guards here.
