Jake Lieberman: "6'1 CG Jose Cuello out of The College of the Sequoias (Juco) has been offered by Southeastern Louisiana. Underrated prospect. Also holds an offer from Prairie View A&M."
Has NYC edge, earned 150 foul shots, plays physical despite 6-foot-1 size, 52 steals, solid shooter but assist to turnover numbers are 103 - 91. Is the latter holding him back or is it 6-1 size?
