I wonder how this commitment factors into Mingo's decision? County seems like more of a combo guard and Mingo more of a pure point guard so I would think they could play together. Plus having two point guards start is never a bad thing. UConn also has a tradition of this going back to the championship backcourts of El Amin-Moore and Napier-Boatright.

It doesn't really help or hurt I'm told, Mingo isn't choosing a place based on other prospects. He is looking for the best fit.
