College coaches are sleeping on Jtown's Brandon Johnson

[VilleCat23]

Jeffersontown has struggled this season but senior Brandon Johnson is having an outstanding season. He is averaging 28 points per game and shooting over 40 % from behind the arc. Tonight he poured in 35 points, 24 in the first half, on 7-12 from three. He was fighting double and triple teams all night and still played very good.

 

He has a lot of looks from D2 and D3 schools but this kid is a solid D1 prospect.

Dont know who the coach is, but if he's that good and not getting the proper "looks", I always felt like that's as much on the Coach as anyone.....promote your talent!!!

WHAT ELSE CAN THIS KID DO BESIDES SHOOT THE BALL? IT SAYS ALOT ABOUT HIM WITH THE RECORD THAT THEY GOT!! CAN WE JUDGE HIM BY HIS TEAM RECORD?

[GoHardITP]

No we cannot judge him by his HS team record. They have no supporting cast for the most part. This young man played as a significant starter on The Ville 17U AAU National Championship team with Raymond Spalding and others. I do not know the answer why he is not getting D1 looks, but his high school team record bears no reflection on his abilities.

You obviously have no clue about basketball in KY that is worth a response..

Your name says a lot about your basketball knowledge. YOU DONT KNOW JACK ABOUT THE GAME! Have you watched Jtown play this year? Not a lot of talent on that roster other then Johnson. And as far as the record, he broke it while facing double and triple teams.

 

And if you ever watched him play you would know he can do a lot more then just shoot. He has a very high basketball IQ. He can get to the rim or pull up and knock down the mid range jumper. Nice passer and solid rebounder and terrific defender. You cant judge a player strictly on his team's record. Because just like the previous poster stated he started and averaged about 15 points per game for one of the top aau teams in the nation.

 

You might want to watch a kid play first before making un-educated comments.
