Nice, I can't wait to see him in the O'dome. Especially when you consider who will be playing alongside him

Hill just has the look, demeanor, and skills of a superstar player, in college and the next level.

Yep. Andrew started one earlier with the same video. Do you not see that whenever you start a thread? The site will alert you if there is a similarly titled thread.

I don't see a thread started by Andrew here in NBN. Sure you are not talking about Full Court Press?

the two themes of all the workouts.

quick hands, quick feet

all the same. lots of fancy stuff going on there and beneficial no doubt....but Pistol Pete's "Homework Basketball" is all you need.

variation is the key to interest. but "Homework Basketball" is the foundation above all.

the thing that really impresses me about Hill is the absolute ease in which he gets off the floor.

honestly, it reminds me of something like Dwayne Wade. Wade is only 6'3 but just absolutely elevates with ease. It's almost like he dunks off his tip toes with a stretch and just gets up quicker than every one else.

you can't teach that and you can't develop it with training. fast twitch muscles combined with a complete coordination in explosion of body movement....you just don't see it often.

Hill is a first rate one and doner....should be the #2 or #3 player in this class behind only Wiggins (a LeBron type physical specimen) and Parker (who I'm still trying to figure out if he is over-rated). I have said again and again that the rankings are being skewed for the UK story angle.

Hill might be the best player we have ever had in a Gator uniform and certainly the best guard

Hill was awful in the Hoop Hall tourney a few weeks ago.

Hill is coming into almost a perfect situation. There will be minute available, but he will not be thrown to the dogs. He can grow and progress at his own rate with out too much pressure on him.

He wasn't awful, he was just in foul trouble. When he was in the game Montverde controlled the game, largely b/c of his PG play. When he was on the bench Findlay would chip away. At the time he fouled out Montverde had a double-digit lead in the 4th. Findlay came back and won while he sat and watched. I think the game actually showed how good he is and how he impacts the game when he is in.

I disagree. He didn't play well. Getting into foul trouble is a contributing factor into not playing well. He didn't get a chance to get comfortable. The two bigs for Montverde were the reason they were up double digits. The kid going to WV was beastly. I like Hill's game but he struggled with Williams-Goss.

I would like to thank the academy...
