5'11 PG Rated 130 nationally and #30 among PGs. It appears wake and USC have offered.
Myer's scouting report: [He's] on the small side, but with a ton of heart and a whole lot of game. [He]can kill from behind the arc, [he] can break a defense down and distribute and [he] can run a team. Love the court presence of [this] little guy.

I know that everyone wants height and length but short guys dont make the NBA.

Can we stop comparing every short guard to JWall? Yeah JWall was short and not that quick but was a great guard. But he also brought a TON more to the table than that. What's the safer bet? Betting on random tall top 100 guard to be better than random short not top 100 guard? Or betting that random short not top 100 guard has all the qualities of JWall? Let's not get sucked into the fallacy of converse accident (is that the right one?).

Thats my point...if he is short, there is more of a chance that they stay 4 years...even if they are incredible like JWall |

I don't know what "short" is supposed to mean but plenty of guys 6'2" and under make the NBA. Plus, if he's an '11 kid, he may not be done growing yet.

The list of effective college guards at 6' or under is pretty long. Height in a college guard is extremely overrated. I know we've played too small the last couple of years, but it's not at the guard position that there's a problem. Let's find a real PF and our guards can be any height we want.
