Welcome Jamal Hartwell

[dr. gunnie]

Welcome Jamal!

I’ve seen a lot from both him and people around him feeling slighted by his lack of offers, especially from west coast teams. Go prove them wrong.

I just also want to stress how good his Compton magic aau team is. They are a top 5-10 team in the country and he was their starting point guard. Got dudes playing PAC 12 and Acc on it

He's listed on the "CM" team and not the U17 Elite team.

Ooooooooh! Buzz kill.

It's cool to get a guy by way of Cali.

I think our last one ended up having sex with Tyra Banks.

If you've enjoyed the play with Otis this signing makes sense because it'll continue our style of PG play.

I would take guarantee money from UCLA to give Hartwell a homecoming game.

I know that everyone on here that follows recruiting is highly interested in the prospect of adding Burton to this class; as you should be, however I just wanted to reiterate that this was an excellent commitment to receive, and it shouldn't be overlooked. Hartwell is very quick, a really really good shooter, and from all the tape i've watched on him (highlights and game film) looks like a true floor general. People can say what they want about size, but Hartwell is the same height as Tre Wood, with similar quickness and better shooting ability. Getting an heir-apparent to Otis was a must in this class in my opinion, along with adding as much shooting as possible. The staff got that done.

I concur. He looks very similar to Otis from what I’ve seen. And the luxury we have is he will have a chance to grow into that role and not be shoved into it because we have no one else.

Added bonus, as a sophomore, he’s going to have a senior ball handler to play alongside, so he won’t have to “do everything” the way Otis has through much of his career.

Unlike Tre Wood, Jamal can shoot the hell out of the ball ... if you’re into that kind of thing.

Hopefully, this guy can play and, if he can, G Mas can hold on to him and not lose him back to the left coast.

Jamal has signed his NLI.

Coach Paulsen:
"We're excited to welcome Jamal to the Mason Family," Paulsen said. "He is a pure point guard who has the ability to handle the ball against pressure, attack in transition, or run a half court offense. He creates for others but also is a dynamic scorer in his own right. We can't wait to get started working with Jamal."

You've gone from Captain Obvious to General or Admiral Obvious. What school has ever recruited someone saying "Hopefully this kid sucks and can't play at all and, if he can, maybe we can still lose him to a school closer to his home"

 

[gmujim92]

Sounds like Otis 2.0.

Hope he plays like it.

 

[masonjoe]

5-10

Gomason.com lists him at 5'11"

Put him on ignore.

Obviously not given attention as a child and craves it now. Don't give it to him.
