Fears talks finalists

Jeremiah Fears, the younger brother of Michigan State freshman guard Jeremy Fears, broke down each of his finalists in a previous interview with On3.

Illinois: “Illinois coaching staff did a pretty good job as well on the visit. The play style fits me and the guards have a crazy leash.”

Kansas: “Kansas has a really good program. They do a really good job getting guards to the league.”

Michigan: “Michigan’s play style fits me and they let their guys play.”

Ole Miss: “Ole Miss is a good program with a play style that I like.”

Providence: “The Providence coaching staff did a good job on the visit. I like the play style and he lets his guards play.”

Jeremiah Fears Scouting Report

“Jeremiah Fears is a compact and confident guard. He plays with a lot of burst, on both ends of the floor. Fears has a confident handle and uses his burst to get to his spots. He plays balanced with an ability to rise up and knock down shots at each level. He is more of a score first guard than a point guard. Fears is a good on ball defender at the point of attack. Some could question the size. There is an undeniable competitive fire in there. Fears is the younger brother of Michigan State guard Jeremy Fears.” – On3’s Jamie Shaw
