I'd say 90% of the confidently expressed opinions on which of the ballyhooed super recruits would start focused on Andrus Peat.
Now, closer to the start of the season, more and more mavens and gurus are weighing in and the first name mentioned is Garnett. Granted, that guard is supposed to be an easier position to learn and in which to contribute, but most of the comments focus on Garnett's physical readiness and evident technique. Could be dad's handiwork being given credit. Still, camp has started, so we'll know soon enough if only the coaching bods let observers watch.

what is all the more impressive about the current buzz regarding Garnett is the fact that, up until now, the general perception has been that we had a host of very solid guard prospects (Danser, Wilkes, Underwood, even seen Rheiner's name tossed about). So if Garnett is good enough to move ahead of them, he must be very good indeed. The speculation about Peat always seemed to me to be about our lack of depth at the position, so who might have an opportunity out of necessity. Of course, as Redrum mentioned, we now get down to brass tacks with the beginning of camp. Garnett's development will be very interesting to see.

Is the Garnett buzz based on anything in particular? My interpretation was just that we got bored about speculating about Andrus Peat and the LT spot.
My guess is both Garnett and Andrus Peat play in the heavy package early in the year and take starting spots in the middle; by the end, we'll know at least a small bit of what all the fuss was about.
