Yet you are the one who thinks McMillan is a high d1 prospect. Just a question who was right here? Thanks.
I said it’s rare and it’s much more popular for them to go the aau circuit. Not that they don’t. And that was an explanation for why ja morant went unnoticed which is absolutely true bud, and why it doesn’t matter if McMillan was great in high school. If it mattered that much, he’d be going to a high d1 school.
the kids best option was njit. Case closed
Please explain all knowing one, a realistic reason for why he went to njit other than he isn’t that good in the peoples eyes that matter

Hmmmm.
College coaches ABSOLUTELY scout High School games- in season when they have a weekend off, but also in these mega Tournaments like Fast Break to the Beach. I’ve seen Tom Izzo, Chris Mack, Dennis Gates and many other HC’s at St. Edward. One reason why Delvon Roe went to Michigan State.
There are almost always D1 assistant coaches at high level High School games because they want to see A) How kids defend in a system, B) Court chemistry C) Playing offense in a structure.
AAU absolutely does not show that. It is basically an And 1 tape of individuality."I Got CHAMPIONS in that Lockerroom!" -Stanley Burrell

In just 1 simple post, you nicely maintain MOR status.
I must, however make it clear that ALL serious Coaching Staffs are fully engaged and hands on. Never underestimate the power of creating a personal bond with the recruit AND his family.
This kind of comfort and trust is most effectively cultivated before, during and AFTER High School games.
What dumbass would think otherwise?.......

Every kid has their own reasons for choosing a certain school. It’s not always all about the sport they play and the school having a program that will get them to the pros. McMillan was the school valediction and carried a 4.0 grade point average. He’s also only 6’2”. His list of final schools was not overly impressive from a BB standpoint, but had some fine academic schools. He seems to be really enamored with the NYC area and the opportunities that he might have there for business after graduation.
HOWEVER……with the number of kids entering the transfer portal every year now and the rule that allows a 1X transfer without sitting out, how much does it really matter where a kid goes initially? If he shows that he is good enough at NJIT to play big time BB, and if he has the desire to do so, he will have plenty of opportunities to do so. If he’s not good enough or has no desire to do so, he might well be very happy there for 4 years and have a great post college business career.
