He has a nice game, but never watched that many highlights and not one shot 8 foot out or further from a guard. Remember Knight offered Delray Brooks w/o ever seeing him play then realized he got almost all his points inside?

 

[go_iu]

Looks very strong for a guard, sort of a Bailey type of guard

Five has seen him in person at least twice. I'll take his word for it.

Crean also offered Priller without ever seeing him play. LOL!

Dante Exum 2.0?

 

[ericrossiu]

I think Miro is more skilled and has a better jump shot from video I’ve seen.

Is Cupp not also a point guard in the same 2023 class?
I'm not usually in favor of that kind of recruiting unless you have two very understanding young men.

IMO Little is a 1-2 and done, Cupps is a 4 year guy. 4 year guys should not play for us freshmen year going forward.

Cupp seems like a four year guy who may not be ready for several years.

what? Delray brooks was a top 5 recruit in the country, guarantee you knight seen him play

 

[ThreeToMakeTwo]

If the other team is going to give him the opening then take. Lay ups are higher pct than longer shots.

 

[Pryght]

Looking at Miro Little's Turnover stats, I think he'd fit in real well with our guys...

Stats provided below. Looks like roughly 18-40 from 3. 45%. Decent numbers.

I believe he was the first recruit Knight never actually saw in person and probably the last. Maybe because he was such a high recruit IDK.

Don't think he's going to have that many open lanes to the basket once he plays in the B1G. Teams seem to be employing the matador defense from what I saw.

47 turnovers in 10 games....yikes!

*🪚 him play

 

[mathboy]

Every time I read his name, I automatically see his first name with an extra “c” in the word, “Micro”. He looks like a nice player.

Priller AND April signed sight unseen in the summer. The Baron Tan Tommy von Clapperson at his best.

Surfboard Fred approves this message.

And never saw him play after signing him either.

Okay I did some research and found in "season on the Brink" Knight saw him only once and he barely played because of foul trouble...Knight mostly trusted assistants who watched him more. He transfered, Smart replaced him and the rest is history.

 

[jacksback]

I watched a few of Miro's highlight videos and it's awfully hard to tell much because the competition looked pathetic. Maybe it was just the videos I saw but he was playing with an against a bunch of scrawny little guys who appeared to have zero clue about how to play D. I'm certainly no expert but Indiana's lowest division in high school basketball looks like it would provide tougher competition.

 

[Univee2]

Kudos. Good line. I'm stealing it, for use later.

Woody’s electric personality should definitely woo him.

I would agree, Woodson has a great personality that should woo him.

We need to get this guy!

 

[Cavanagh]

Oh shit! He’s coming for the Purdue game. This could get interesting. That environment will be like nothing he has ever been in.

 

[Harry Hondo]

Villanova and Baylor are on him, too, but IU was on him first. I suspect if those two programs are looking at him he must be the real deal. They've done well lately at evaluating talent.

 

[Pryght]

 

[TR32]

Very unusual to see IU, Nova, and Baylor in a recruiting battle so hopefully this kid likes tradition because clearly he has an open eval.

 

[TR32]

I hope the Finns like good old fashioned barnburners. Terrific atmosphere for college hoops.

Going to Baylor.

Yes, history has it forever etched in limestone as a Smart move. Was it Delray Brooks who Knight later admitted had "slow feet" or was it some other disappointing high school star?

Not sure on that, but do remember that w/o watching Delray enough Knight didn't know he got the lions share of his points inside (which didn't bold well in college). I watched Damon Bailey a lot and he did too, but adapted much quicker.

Come to think of it later, it may have been Bracey Wright the recipient of Knight's "slow feet" comment.

 

[ericrossiu]

Knight didn’t coach Bracey

 

[VanPastorMan]

Going to Baylor.

Them lousy Baptists. I am one but THEY are lousy. Good luck to the young man.

Good call, so it was Delray slow afoot.
