Right, which is why I said that Haase may not be right for Stanford. My take is that he knows how to coach and has had to learn on the job how to recruit "Stanford-style." Tyrell Terry, per 247 sports, is a 4-star, 6th-best-point-guard-in-the 2019-class out of MN, 79th best overall recruit in his class. He didn't have offers from Duke or Kentucky, but he did have offers from several B1G and Big 12 schools, including Indiana. So let's see what Haase can do in 2019 with a lineup that consists entirely of players that he recruited.
(Re: SamuelMcF's comments about Isaac White. In his limited minutes, IW has more turnovers than assists. Stanford does not use Isaac as its point guard, so in my mind he's not one, but that's just semantics.)
If there's one thing people have learned in Berkeley, it's that you can't put "Cal football" and "Rose Bowl" in the same sentence. The words just don't fit. You'd be better off linking "covered wagons" with "Mars travel." (Bruce Jenkins, Cal '70, SF Chronicle, Nov. 11, 2017)
