(2020) SG Anthony Leal to IU
Bowhunter and 5 others reacted to GnarlyNormEllenberger for a post in a topic
I've watched him probably a half dozen times or so for Bloomington South the past two years. I'm not a scout or an expert. I do support South, though. I think some folks see his ranking and can't understand why Archie hasn't offered Leal yet. I think you saw why. He can look very pedestrian at times and fade into the game. Personally I have never seen him dominate a game (although I know he has in other games.) I may be bad luck because I witnessed probably some of his worst games. You accurately described how he has played a few times. The Edgewood game at the beginning of the year was low point. Outhustled in that one, too. As a whole though, he has potential. Currently a good shooter. Nowhere near a Hulls or Roth or Zeisloft at this moment, in my opinion. But still good. Has the potential to be an above average offensive player at the next level. Solid size for his position. Can defend well when healthy and engaged. Is well coached. Intelligent individual. Good teammate. Evidently lights it up in AAU. I believe he has strong ties to IU... But I won't dive into that for privacy purposes. As I have said in the past, I'd be happy for him to become a Hoosier. I think we get him if we want him. But he can't be the centerpiece of the class. He's a support piece, in my opinion. If you liked the addition of guys like Damezi Anderson and Armaan Franklin, I think you'll like Leal. I'd guess his impact will be somewhere around there. What's funny is the amount of negativity you see against Jalen Windham but love Leal. My opinion is that their about the same. -

5 pointsBloomington has some really good food. Nick’s is like a museum of IU-ness that has food. Nick’s is most certainly NOT where one goes for really good food. Nick’s is a good choice to take a high school recruit who probably appreciates an over cooked burger and salty fries anyway.

The uniform tops don’t match the bottoms. They made the borders on the shorts thicker and more pronounced then eliminated the bordering on the tops. Looks tacky and definitely doesn’t improve on what we’ve had. Probably not as big a deal as I’m making it out to be but it bothers me nonetheless. -

Nasty scar there for Ant. Hear he is a bulldog. We need those types. Would be a solid addition but it makes me wonder how Rob, Ant, Green, Franklin, Durham would work out. Me personally, i'm not very impressed with our guard play, especially our shooting. Not unrealistic to think a Frosh could jump them. I think DJ Carton would have. -

Wish we did as well - good luck elsewhere. Not really sour grapes, but Indiana is all set without him with Ramsey, Penix, and Tuttle. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners -

Not a huge fan of the pizza, but we left Bloomington 5 years ago and still talk about the fries. Still the best fries I've had Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk -
1 pointHe's been in the league for 7 years which means he's almost certainly been practicing and working on becoming a better basketball player for 50 or 60 hours per week. If he was capable of developing a shot, it would've happened by now. People can't see hand-eye coordination like they can length or height but people have maximum potential there just like in physical categories. I say all of that to say that I've never heard of MCW not being a hard worker so it looks like he's maximizing his potential. I didn't say Boeheim said anything outrageous, but I thought he was wrong at the time and still think he's wrong in hindsight. The point was that reasonable basketball minds frequently disagree on players.

5 upperclassmen and Romeo. I don't think people have caught on to how good Romeo will be at the next level, he's going to be a stud in a more spacious game -

I would be a lot more worried about the quality of man that's coaching my son over the next 3-4 years. -
1 pointExcuse me, but where in the rule does it say anything about top 100 players only? And you had better believe the NBA casts a much, much, much broader net to find their players than the top 100 NCAA and international players. The idea that scouts find this process annoying doesn't reflect any conversation I've ever had with a scout. It's also ridiculous to think that they're going to get the same advice from Archie that they'd get from the league just because we know Archie is a quality coach. They might, they might not. Put a quality player in front of ten quality coaches and they are going to have some different opinions as coaching philosophies obviously vary. Boeheim, a quality coach, thought Michael Carter-Williams wasn't ready for the NBA... Carter-Williams is in his 7th season in the league now. So there's some evidence that a quality coach might disagree with other quality coaching assessments, if you needed any.
