Noah committed

Rankings aren't math. They are subjective and dependent on a lot of factors, including where a player is from and the camps they attend. Let's actually get Noah on campus and see how he does before jumping to conclusions. He seems like the kind of player who invariably torched Cal's higher rated 5 star recruits. Pope is bringing these guys home.

Had Noah gone to USC you can bank on him having been an absolute thorn in our side his entire career. I am glad he's a Cat.
 
I just love this commitment. This guy was the best player in the Sweet 16 and that includes Perry. This guy scored 48 POINTS in a state tournament game. In all honesty, he should've been the MVP of the tournament but they only give it to the state tourney winning team.
 
Well show your stats.....

Reed thru 4 years was 1 percentage point higher thru Trent's 3 years worth of stats. So the likelihood of Trent's Sr year alone raising his overall percentage a clear 4% higher is about zilch.

You are clearly a Harlan fan....which is all great. But to argue he'll shoot superior to Reed who just shot the single greatest 3pt season in UK history is sort of nuts.
I never said he would shoot superior at UK. I said he was a better shooter in HS and he was. I’ve been to Harlan exactly 3 times in my entire life. I am from northern KY. I see you can’t take your own advice about arguing. I’m not surprised based on your history of posts here.
 
After reading the film evaluation of Noah at On3 I am even more impressed with the abilities that Noah has. A great read if you get the chance.
 
Reed in high school was a career 38% 3pt shooter

Trent Noah in high school was 37% 3pt shooter thru his Jt season….cant find Sr season

So at best Noah was marginally better in high school. But Reed in a role he wasn’t needed to be a scorer only was able to translate to a floor general and better shot selection to 53% from deep…utterly amazing stats given he was able to do so vs much better competition

Trent Noah may translate similar….i highly doubt it. But to argue he’s a better shooter than Reed is sort of goofy
Obviously Reed had a fantastic season shooting the ball at UK 53% which is absurd. In high school Trent Noah was a better shooter and yes you are leaving off his 43% shooting senior season. Noah broke Chris Lofton’s record for threes made in the sweet 16. Hopefully Noah can be a near 40% shooter from 3 in college which is fantastic. Reed’s biggest issue was he didn’t shoot enough at UK or in high school. Reed can shoot but it’s his other attributes that made him a lotto pick
