More likely it was not officially announced until yesterday that Max had transferred to SDSU , by SDSU coach Fisher. Last week he was not on the official roster as a red shirt . So they wanted to make sure it was official .Maybe enrolled in summer school and is an Aztec now. His signing was not exactly headline news.

I am really rooting for Hoetzel to succeed - mostly because of what I've been reading on here.

Coug feel badly that your buddy Max was not weight listed by ESPN or the Aztecs until yesterday tried to just say he was left off because it was not official yet, not that his transfer was barely or almost totally left off the radar by national media . Thought we had agreed that it would be better to wait until we see the results of the 2016 season. I had hoped for Aaron , we can compare after during the 2016 season . Or as you can see possibly a guy that could play the 5/C position Williams ..
X was recruited by Aztecs as a PG , to do what he did so well distribute the basketball ,run the offense , facilitate his team mates , keep TO's to a minimum, then in his senior year he developed into a good SCORER not just a shooter.
For 2016 most of the recruiting talk seems to be about the Aztecs needing a guy that can play the 5/C and trying to recruit Bailey , a scoring Forward - guess they forgot Max was on board now. Are you saying that the Aztecs do not need to bring in a SF similar to Bailey that Max can be that guy? Do say hello to Max at your family reunion. Hope I am wrong and Max is a great shooter for the Aztecs although I prefer a quality Scorer .

Hope I am wrong and Max is a great shooter for the Aztecs although I prefer a quality Scorer . LOL. I'm glad the coaching staff disagrees with you about Max, and actually already DO see him as an athletic, great shooter. But hey, what do they know, right? They wouldn't know anything about evaluating talent - maybe they should just listen to you.
X was recruited as a 3-star with minimal PG experience in HS, so he wouldn't fit your mantra by any stretch of the imagination. He shot under 30% from 3, and was definitely not a scorer while at WSU. He turned the ball over often, especially in transition, and was extremely raw offensively. He was NOT a facilitator at that point in his career. And it's not like he had a super stud keeping him on the bench. Despite that, I know I liked his game a lot and liked his potential, just like Max. And again, the coaches SAW his potential and how he'd fit into the team, which would require him learning the PG position. They saw him as a fit because he played great D, or had the potential to, just like they see Max as a fit due to multiple reasons, especially his shooting. Luckily, they don't use your "name" or "stars" or "ranking" or "who's recruiting him" criteria to decide he was a good fit.
And yes, you SHOULD wait to see how well they - X or Max - fit in and perform before drawing conclusions. But hey, I'm sure you were bashing X then as well because he showed no more promise than Max at that point in time, and wasn't a featured transfer on ESPN.
Now you can go back to kicking Max...knock yourself out. Or maybe instead of constantly taking shots at him, bashing him & "hoping you're wrong" you realize you may not have the eye the coaching staff has and hold off on taking shots until after you actually see him play as an Aztec.

Lol I am not invited to the Hoetzel family reunions, wanted Shaq Aaron, and wonder about how Max will fit in here too... But your hate for the dude is coming out of left field and is over the top. Usually when people measure Richards over the internet they both lose, but in this case you combine your poor communication skills, your unreasonable perception of a player you know nothing about, and your insistence that somehow sdcoug is the one out of bounds here... And you get a fairly funny situation. BASKETBALL SEASON PLEEEEEEEEEASE GET HERE ALREADY WE'RE BOREDDDDDDD
