Probably because he played in a league not known for high competition, and that he missed almost all of his junior season.The player from Cheney is supposedly the #2 basketball prospect in the state and has no Pac-12 offers? That seems odd.
Maybe Stinson is considered a "tweener" at this point? Not enough athleticism for the perimeter or size/length for the 4.
Dick/Tony were great at projecting talent so I'm sure there was more to it. I still like Dick's comment on recruiting approach on players having 2 of 3 between character, athleticism, and skill/shooting with character required as 1 of the 3.
If Stinson can at minimum shoot at this level he can carve out some kind of a role.
Log jam at the 3? Only returning 3s next year would be Wells and Kymany, and Kymany is playing more 1 and 2 so far this year. As of yet we don’t really know what we have Wells.
Just give Smith some time, as Smith loves recruiting 3's, WINGS.
I'm sure that Smith will recruit 1,2,3 more players capable of playing the 3, WING spot, and at least 1 of those 1,2,3 more 3, WING spot recruits, will be able to play the 3,2,4 spots in addition to being able to play the 3,WING spot well. But because of lots of 4's, 5's, etc, that versatile recruit or 2, will play either the 3, Wing, or SG, kind of like Kymany.
Because of this, there will probably be a semi log jam of 6 players capable of playing the 3 spot(1. Wells. 2. Kymany. 3. Stinson. 4. A versatile Wing recruit capable of playing the 3,2,4, spots 5. A versatile Wing recruit capable of playing the 3,2,1 spots, 6. A pure 3 recruit like Stinson.
Also don't forget that the 6-8.5 recruit that chose WSU over Seton Hall, etc, can also play the 3 spot, in addition to the 4 spot, kind of like Jaki.
So combined with the above, that would make likely 7 possible players that can play the 3 spot, Wing.
Just curious, how many are playing P5? I know one in Darling.His JR year obviously hurt but the GSL had by my count 10 Guys playing D-1 last year that’s not to shabby.
I counted Chatfield who played at Clarkston which wasn’t in the GSL when he played but has been in the passed. So 9 but I’m probably missing some
Anton Watson would start at virtually every P5 school in the country.Just curious, how many are playing P5? I know one in Darling.
that's right - I forgot he transferred again.Younger Groves is playing for Tony at Virginia. Stephens at Oregon state. Boise State isn’t p5 but Deganhart is very solid plus they had another contributor.
I guess it’s official that Spokane has become Hooptown, especially in comparison to it being a football town.His JR year obviously hurt but the GSL had by my count 10 Guys playing D-1 last year that’s not to shabby.

Sounds about right.Spokane flipped over to basketball centric about the time Halliday graduated from high school. It was relatively even then.
There’s still a Rehkow at BYUSounds about right.
2 of the GSL kids will be playing in the AC Saturday. Darnold - WSU and Culp uw. I think they’re both 6 year guys.
The only other P5 GSL er I can think of is a kicker at TAM.
