This is the type of kid we usually lose to a school like MSU. A very smart kid who is a natural leader, steady jumper, strong defensively. This kid is use to playing with a few of the kids on his AAU team so he already has that familiarity which is huge, the chemistry is there and proven. He's not a guy who needs alot of shots and won't force shots (ahem, Simmons). Good to see us get a natural PG out of HS instead of JUCO.
We have now what, Sullinger/Sibert/Craft from his AAU team....let's make it two more with Payne and Witherspoon :) it has to make those guys feel a little more comfortable now with all those guys already there and helping us recruit them!
