I would imagine he knew that tubby was gone and penny was definitely going before we did definitively

Yep, 83 was my freshman year too. And football didn't get any better or should I say it was NOT Finer with Criner. At least we had Johnny and the boys during the winters.

Yeah, we don’t need no future pros. Only current pros, maybe? Just spitballing here.
He doesn't if Hoiberg never comes along.
Parker Stewart announced he is transferring from Pitt, we tried last year to get involved. From Prohm's stomping ground...get him.
Good find. He never made it on a visit iirc. I'm not finding any advanced stats but 9ppg for a freshman is pretty good.
Garrett's freshman year stat line:
22.2 min
6.3 ppg
1.8 rpg
2.8 assist (2.4 turnovers)
0.9 steals (1st on team)
Not bad considering the amount of minutes he got as a freshman. (His per 40 averages were over 10 points and 5 assists). Keep in mind that his 6.3 ppg was on a team that averaged just 64 points per game.
The reason the 2007-08 team was so bad is because Garrett was one of just five Big 12 caliber players on McDermott's roster that year (four of those players were forwards, and three of them were freshmen and sophomores).
As a backup point guard Haliburton would be asked to play a similar amount of minutes, or less. The comparison sounds about right to me.
The comparison of Haliburton - Garrett is fine. I'd be happy if he is DG by his senior year. My point is, Garrett had the role he had because those teams were so bad. Freshman DG doesn't play meaningful minutes on next years team and Haliburton won't either imo. Haliburton needs time in the weight room. Doesn't mean he can't be a good player with his slight frame.
I stick by everything I said. DG doesn't play in the NBA without Hoiberg. Disagree all you want but it's true. You can say "Garrett was a skinny freshman and was good, therefore Haliburton can be the same" all you want, it's not going to change the fact that the 18'-19' roster is lightyears ahead of the 07'-08' team in talent. And Haliburton is good. It's just we aren't TOE. We aren't going to play 12 guys every night.
He played on Penny's AAU team and is from nearby Memphis
Yeah Parker is leaving Pitt to play for Penny. Really little doubt about that.
I think the NCAA frowns on that. I'm sure no outside agency would be checking into that for any reason right?
So you just completely derailed your point by saying it was the coach's fault he wasn't good his first years?
Not a very good debater, are you?
Not necessarily. Many of Prohm’s seasons as head coach have not exactly been Hoiball in terms of structure or style, particularly when he had his own players.
