He's a stud, but in a way I'm glad. He seems like a guy who wouldn't stick around anyway. His major reason for going to UT was immediate playing time. That tells you he's at least thinking about getting in some "practice" at the college level before he makes the jump.
I like what Self has done with this year's recruiting class, and next year's with the exception of Chalmers. He's collected a lot of good players, none of which are singular stand out studs, but who with some work will make one hell of a powerful team. Guys that are willing to learn first under senior leadership, then work as a team to accomplish goals. Chalmers is stud PG, and some are saying that given a good enough season this year, could skip out and go pro. He's more of a Marbury/Iverson kind of point guard rather than a Miles/ Vaughn PG.
