Coach Hudgins on Logan Rawlings:

Aside from his athletic ability, what makes Logan an attractive recruit?

“Good gracious! He has a combination of very high character and work ethic that you just don’t see these days. Logan is probably one of the hardest working kids I’ve been around in my 25 years of coaching. The way he carries himself doesn’t just show up on the court or in practice, it shows up in everything he does. This young man is the same on the court, in the classroom and in his day-to-day life.”

“Logan is a leader and that’s how he carries himself. He leads by example. Logan is the kind of kid that will do what’s right, even if it’s not the popular thing to do.”

What physical qualities will translate well for Logan at the next level?

 “He’s quick and he’s extremely fast. At times, he’s too fast! I think watching him learn how to temper that speed will be a lot of fun for any program that picks him up. Logan is as high-energy guy as you’ll find. The level of intensity that he plays with never drops. He gets down the floor as quick as anyone I’ve ever coached, and he has an uncanny ability to break down a defender. He’s going to get to the bucket and score or he’s going to get it to someone else that can finish.”

What is your message to any college program interested in Logan?

 “Logan absorbs and runs anything you put in front of him. His basketball IQ is tremendous. Logan is smart, he works really hard and he has really high character. I think those are the attributes that are harder to come by, if the physical talent meets what you’re needing. It’s hard to explain how valuable a kid like Logan is to your team until you get to see him work, every day.”
