HERRO
- Thread starter Calsthebomb
- Start date
Definitely the best scorer. Another Booker in the making. Both were rated about the same coming out of HS. Both have very similar games. Can score on EVERY level. There’s some great value in that when you can also pass and dribble efficiently. Not to mention, dude is legit 6’6”.
Wait would you take him over a raw OAD thats 6’7 with athleticism and no skills?
We don’t do that do we?

I think Keldon Johnson will be our best player.
Herro looks like he is the best player. Looked it in the Bahamas and certainly looked it again tonight. He's a willing passer, scoring machine and active on defense. How many steals he have tonight?
This entire team looks incredible to me. Gee whiz, we have some weapons.

So who are the 3 shooting guards ESPN had rated ahead of him?
Maybe one day these scouting services will start grading a little higher on pure basketball skill.
We haven't had a shooter like this kid since Lamb. This is going to be such a fun ride and don't forget how this team projects defensively. Oh man, I can't wait.
Herro is the type of shooter that it surprises me when he misses. Lamb was that type to.
Smooth player. Wisconsin fans will be bitter all year when they watch him play.
Booker, Murray, and Monk could all fill it up. I would be thrilled if he’s at the level of any of those guys. Hot Booker, not slumping Booker.
And he's not just a shooter. Kid is a complete player. His best value will be outside shooting because he will spread the floor all by himself and then just go by people.
Put Q on the floor with him and I don't know how you defend this team.
EJ can also shoot it.
But Herro is going to make scoring so much easier for our 4's and 5's.
When's the last time we saw open lanes? For once, we have a great shooting team. It'll be nice to see a high powered offense for a change.

PJ looks like the best player to me. He looks to have taken a pretty big step forward.
We haven’t had a sophomore drafted in the first round despite all of Cal’s draft success and Willie is the only guy to come back and go in the first round. I think PJ breaks that trend this year and Nick as well.

Herro maybe the beat shooter we will actually see play at Kentucky. Booker doesn’t count because he didn’t get to play as much as he should. From what I’ve seen, I’d put him with Harrison, monk, and Murray. The thing that sucks, is he will probably be a guaranteed first rounder, as opposed to a four year starter at Wisconsin. The Kentucky effect strikes again
We never had a Sophomore drafted in the first round? I jever knew that. Didn't Terrence Jones go first round though?

Aaron Harrison was better in crunch time as a freshman than anyone we’ve ever had.
If Herro or PJ prove to be solid perimeter defenders, really the only potential weakness (small forward defensive depth behind Keldon) disappears immediately. It's not even a major issue, and may not be an issue at all because I like what PJ is doing on the perimeter defensively. Herro doesn't appear to be a liability either.
Ironic thing is, that Booker was the least consistant player of any of them.. But will end up being the biggest NBA talent..
I think there are a legit 5-6 candidates that could possibly be viewed as MVP after the year is over..
I'll assume you mean under Cal...Harrison was not a great shooter. He was clutch in 14 though. . I'm hoping Hero will make 100+ on the year .. B Knight team made 287 3's on the year. (most)...I believe this team will be the first to make 300.
Lamb (68)
Knight (87)
Aaron (62)
Murray (113)
Monk (104)
Booker (58)

They can be bitter all they want, but look at how much more buzz and exposure he has gotten by coming to Kentucky, and he hasn’t even played his first college game.
Agree completely with your statement. Absolutely don't get how recruits can't see this...if your goal is to play only one season in college, the most sound and proven path is Cal and UK. The Kentucky Effect is real, we have seen it for almost a decade now.
Behooves me for players choosing second tier schools, with no national coverage. Going to UK, I believe gives you a +3 in draftability.
Tyler Herro is so smooth on the court he makes everything look easy.
Reminds me of Louie Dampier.

He should start at 2G which is not a given considering all the talent we have and Tyler has a great all around skills.
Love his game.
Too bad Baker did not get too play last year. Probably would have made Final Four. He can also shoot.

Just glad you didn't freak out about the Blue White game like you did about the Football game, to include calling TW "terrible" and saying we'd lose the game. smh.
Technically we did lose the blue white game.
