Remember when he was a freshman and they had another freshman who was equally as impressive, Je'Lon Hornbeak? But by the time they were sophs, Hield had created quite a bit of separation between he and Hornbeak where none existed before as far as talent goes, at least to this untrained eye, and now he's conference player of the year as a junior.
Both four-star recruits, Hield is playing in the NCAA tourney and on the fast track for the NBA and Hornbeak transferred to Monmouth to get more playing time and sat out this year. What's the difference in two players who looked to be carbon copies of each other as freshmen? Work ethic maybe? Hield is known for his fanatical work ethic, but I have no clue about Hornbeak's
Just interesting how fortunes change.
