Jing-Quo Huang, a senior guard from Korea, committed to Villanova exactly 30 seasons after his father, Yul Huang, had.

Yul signed with the Wildcats in season 12 and was a key cog in their national championship run as well as another trip to the elite 8 in his senior season. He was drafted by the New Jersey Nets with the 29th pick and enjoyed a successful NBA career.

Jin-Quo is much more than just the three-point specialist that he may seem from the exterior. He is scoring 22 ppg this season and has lead 'Nova to a 6-1 start. His success has yet to exceed his fathers, but if he is able to lead the 'Cats on a Cindarella run, who knows what accolades he may accomplish.

cute

very nice

I like it!

All jokes aside, I think this is pretty cool.

Not to be that guy, but Korean names are family names first, followed by given names.  So these two would have the same given name, but definitely wouldn't be related. 

Feel free to thumbs down me for raining on the parade.

Edit: Although now that I look at it, Huang is the only possible Korean family name, so I guess WIS just doesn't know anything about Korean names.  I guess they could be related!

I think what is most odd is how I came about this so randomly. I was just looking around at some random teams. For some reason I looked at Villanova's team records and noticed the two names. Very odd.

Except when you apply to American schools, you flip it so your given name comes first, your surname comes second.

Sure, on the application it might be different, but they wouldn't actually change their name.

they're obviously related, they look just like each other!

Trust me, Huang is the last name. 

Or try this, you see Yul or Jing-Qou anywhere on this list? I do see Huang though

I guess it would help if you actually read my first post all the way through.
