Right. Like it was a test or something. Look if we get 3 good recruits and failed on 100. We still killed it if they were good recruits. If we get 3 recruits and failed on 2 others but the 3 we got sucked. That is a failure.
Being old and growing up in eastern Iowa he reminds me of my favorite Hok to watch growing up ( other than Lester) Vince Brookins. Quick smooth jumper.
We as in fans wanted him bad but ended up with some dude who was a three star named Tyrese Haliburton instead so the coaches quit recruiting Harris. Strange how things work out in college sports
Ehh, that may be a stretch. Shayok had more to his game in my opinion. He had more to his dribble and was quicker of creating his own shot. Hinson seems to thrive off of a catch and shoot a little more than creating his own shot like Shayok could do. At least that's what I gathered mostly from the highlights above. Either that, or they didn't do a great job of showcasing all of Hinson's strengths.
I haven't seen many charges called on jump shooter, mainly on players driving to the hoop with their heads down.
If you go to the first page of this thread, I posted a highlight video that shows more than just catching and shooting!
Interesting.. The first couple minutes are him taking nothing but pull up jumpers.
I just came across the free CycloneReport article and Seals speculated that Javian could be playing PG or at least a Point-Foward role in the offense.
While I realize it seems a bit out of the box, we've heard that narrative throughout the off season from the media. The staff must be seriously considering it and would make sense with Prohm targeting a player like Hinson (Smith) to play PF freeing up JJ rather than focused on true point guard. Though I do think Harris could be the answer there too.

"If that waiver is approved, he would provide some immediate scoring from all areas of the floor. He shot 40-percent from the field and made 91-of-273 3-pointers during his time in Oxford.
I-State will return a pair of veterans in the post next season in senior Solomon Young and junior George Conditt, so if eligible, Hinson could be utilized more on the wing. Another transfer, Javan Johnson, is listed as a forward but could see time at point guard. Guards Tre Jackson and Rasir Bolton also return to the mix."

Literally none of us did. LJ Figueroa going to Oregon helped us land Hinson. Heard Blake was going to choose between us and Oregon and we became the choice.
Haha, I'll admit I changed windows to work on something and thought I finished the video. Glad they did show 30-45 seconds of him taking guys to the hole. Definitely excited for him. This guy has more power than Shayok, so I still view him differently. Shayok was more finesse, this guy seems like he wants to run you over with his energy. It's someone we DESPERATELY need on this team.
Prohm for President! Best recruiting coach and staff in Iowa a State history.
