Hill is going to be one of my favorite non-SHU college ballers, sure I'll be rooting for him every time the pirates aren't on the same court. I think Buzz got a great one.
I've been able to watch a good number of Hill's game this year and his game is undeniable. I don't think there is any player in the country with more game than Hill. His game is complete for a SG. Players that are better than him have to have a lot of game too just with more athleticism. He's not a bad athlete but he's not the fastest or the most explosive or the strongest baller. That description probably rightfully fit Vander Blue also. But Med Hill also is as bball intelligent and overall humble a high schooler as there is out there....he's a hs Joe Johnson. Here's some highlights of Hill from the first game of the year:
Med is pretty much been a one man gang on his Aquinas (GA) team again. He was the POY in Georgia last season. Right now they are 8-3. After 11 games Hill is averaging over 30 ppg. They just finished 3rd in the Chick-fil-A Classic in South Carolina. They went 2-1. In those 3 games Med averaged: 28 ppg, 7 rpg, 4.7 apg, 2 blk/gm, and 2 stl/gm. He shoot 54.5% FG, 43.5% 3FG, & 67% FT. If he had better help all those numbers would be higher- he crushed it:
Here's a complete game against South Point (SC) in the Chick-fil-A Classic. I saw LJ Peak go for over 30 in 2 wins against this same pretty good team earlier this season. Hill goes for 36 in a close loss. He did it all for Aquinas including hardly sitting but S. Point presses all day and Hill had to play a lot of PG. It's a great showcase game for hill though. Med hill is easily a top 40 player & as his body develops he'll really be a Joe Johnson clone with that bully ball mixed with finesse game.

That one definitely hurts. More so long term than next year since they still have good pieces at the 2 and the 3 in theory, but he was by far the best recruit for this year's class. Losing Hill and Harris means Marquette only has a 2 person recruiting class at this point with only one of those definitely on board at this point in Cohen.
