He’s a ‘man of substance’ Posted on March 29th
The first interview request is made in Miami.
John Salmons ponders it for several seconds before agreeing — with one caveat: “Can we wait a little bit, you know what I’m saying, until I feel more comfortable?”
This doesn’t surprise Stan Jones, who worked with Leonard Hamilton to recruit Salmons to up-and-coming Miami, beating out higher-profile programs like Indiana and Kansas.
“He’s a very deep thinker, and when he speaks, he wants it to mean something,” said Jones, now Hamilton’s associate head coach at Florida State. “John has great character and depth. He doesn’t suffer fools easily or get fooled by quick talk. He seeks substance because he’s a man of substance.”
