I completely agree with the Carmelo comparison. He looks best in the high post where a defender has to respect his shot so much, he can get that first step then uses his body so well in traffic and has a very rounded skill set to finish. 

I say he sits behind Watford his first season. Which is the way to have a winning program. Hollowell has to work against Watford as a senior and will should benefit greatly. Something Watford did not have.

As a junior or senior, though, it wouldn’t shock me in the least if Hollowell was a leading scorer in the Big Ten.

I’d say that’s an even better call.

Hopefully, Hanner may be the guy Andrae Patterson was on rare occasions.

I’ll go back a few more years and say this is the guy we wanted Charlie Miller to be.

He just has so many ways to kill you.

I love his high release on his shot. A smooth stroke, high realease and 6’8″? That’s deadly.

Thank you ITH!

I really doubt he leaves after two years. think about it, he doesnt have that elite athleticism, thus he will never be labeled as a guy with “upside” which is what the NBA lives on.

I see him being more of a 3-4 year player. his game really reminds me of carmelo anthony, without the elite strength. scores in so many ways and can really punish smaller defenders

A guy that can definitely shoot it yet can still get to the rim despite having just an average first step.  Jeremy is good at drawing contact with his body on his drives and constantly keeping his head up to evaluate until the last possible second. I’ll be interested to see how he does against quicker defenders in college. He definitely needs to keep working on initial quickness and agility. That said, if he’s a Mo Pete type he probably hangs around 4 years and climbs a few records lists.

Another comparison I’d give Jeremy is “the guy we all wanted Bracey Wright to be”

1) Hollowell’s shot (I love his form on free throws!)
2) HP was around the rim to get the rebound on almost every shot (if not every shot).

Smooth shot, nothin but net. His stroke reminds me a lot of Calbert, and that’s a good thing!
