He more than holds his own in 3A too but the number 2 recruit in Texas should be dominating. Aau might be “real basketball players” but it’s not real basketball Link to post Share on other sites
Sportsjunkiee 4 Posted December 15, 2020 Author Share Posted December 15, 2020 I think Collins is the #2 recruit because of his skill set for his size, his length, and he jumps so well and gets off the floor so quickly. I also think it's hard for him to dominate offensively at the HS level because of his lack of strength and the limited skills of his teammates. I do think he can dominate HS games defensively. His game is definitely complemented when he is on the court with more skilled players so I believe this is part of the reason for being ranked so high. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

He’s committed to Kentucky and number 2 recruit in the state of Texas. Great player, but seems way too high. A player of the caliber should be be dominating and taking over games and be able to beat almost every 3A team, but that’s not the case. They’ll prob get bounced round 2 or so I don’t care how good you are 1 guy isn’t beating a good team period, and also he had to play point against Tatum bEcause they were missing three players. You think they just handing out scholarships to Kentucky smh 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Just my opinion on seeing him, but also I haven’t compared him to many other top ranked recruits. Link to post Share on other sites

Sportsjunkiee 4 Posted December 20, 2020 Author Share Posted December 20, 2020 Jefferson has good guards who are strong enough and skilled enough to negate Tatum's pressure. If Tatum can't force teams to turn the ball over then the playing field becomes much more level. I could see Tatum and Jefferson splitting their two games with each winning at home. Arp is capable of beating Tatum or Jefferson and though they aren't nearly as talented as the other 3 teams, you can never count out Troup. They have won a lot of big games the past few years and their style of play keeps them in games against more talented teams. This will be a fun district to watch with a lot of really good matchups.
