Posted Nov 19, 2019
Unranked Ja Morant wasn’t even evaluated by anybody on our staff. It’s a big country and we can’t see everybody. But, Morant went to a well-regarded mid-major in Murray State. Given that so many others overlooked him, it is likely we would have blown the evaluation, too, but it would have been nice to try to learn from anything we might have missed. (Rivals.com)
