Probably deciding whether or not they think he's better than Landry. |

I don't evaluate players and I didn't even stay in a Holiday Inn Express last night, but the talent level in some of those clips was a bit, shall we say, suspect. Not to mention he seemed to be trying to put on a dribbling exhibition in a few of those clips. |

However, twitter search his name and you'll see the rave. He has blown up on the AAU circuit this summer.
Here's just a few comments from the last day or two...
“@D_1Trainer: @KyleNeddenriep TaiShaun Johnson had 28 points with 8 three point bombs & 8 assist as Kings Court beat Sebe to advance to platinum bracket!”
“@Hoops_Reports: Tennessee, Wake Forest, Old Dominion, Illnois St, Boston College, among others watched Taishaun Johnson today, a 2013 PG.”
“@SECBballRecruit: California, V. Tech, Vermont, Nebraska, Tennessee, and Northeastern watched 2013 PG Taishaun Johnson and SG Harry Wills. @hoopdreaming1”
“@D_1Trainer: Hard pressed to find a better backcourt than Harry Wills & TaiShaun Johnson. #KingsCourtNation”
“@SECBballRecruit: West Virginia, Virginia Tech, and Valparaiso watched 2013 PG TaiShaun Johnson. Tennessee is interested.” |

Watching him put on a Globetrotters act while being guarded by a 5'8" kid wasn't really getting me convinced. Hopefully some better tape surfaces of him. |

| this is from taishaun just a little while ago...
“@HoopDreaming1: Heard from Alabama, Vermont, Northeastern, Oakland. Jacksonville, and Tennessee”
This also from tonight, Tennessee showing interest in another 2013 PG
“@SECbasketball1: Former Towson Commit, 2012 2-Star PG Frank Mason (6'0", 170) has interest from Tennessee and South Carolina now! #Vols #GameCocks #UT”
Tennessee apparently has offered a legitimate big man!
“@BWeixScout: Trevor Thompson tweets that he has picked up an offer from #Tennessee. He reclassed to 2013. Talented 6'11"!” |

“@Coast2CoastHoop: Tennessee is now expressing interest in 2013 New Rens (NY) point guard Terrence Samuel.” |

| Maybe this is why we don't take a PG in 2013...
“@EvanDanielsFOX: 19 point guards made 2014 top 75. Very deep position in the '14 class.” |
