One week after their season ended, the Colorado Buffaloes have landed a blue chip prospect in Joe Hurlburt, the 70th rated recruit in the 2022 class.
Hurlburt is from Enderlin, North Dakota, a town of less than 900 residents. First recognized for his 6’10 size and sweet shooting ability, Hurlburt moved to play AAU ball in Minnesota where he received offers from Big Ten programs such as Iowa, Minnesota and Ohio State.
From a brief scouting video, Hurlburt looks like a very skilled player for his size. He’s a bit slow, but that doesn’t really matter when you are that big, shoot that well and know how to use that size on both ends of the floor.
