Nothing of substance we don't already know in here. But it's something to read while you pass the time until McNeeley commits today. ;) https://www.courant.com/2024/04/24/report-uconn-mens-basketball-to-host-saint-marys-transfer-aidan-mahaney-on-visit/ Alternate access: Report: UConn men’s...

Of course! https://www.nhregister.com/sports/uconn-mens-basketball/article/liam-mcneeley-huskies-visit-storrs-dan-hurley-19418438.php Alternate access: Can Dan Hurley and staff secure commitment from Liam McNeeley after UConn men’s basketball visit?

Maybe OT means On Topic? ;)

That's why UConn recruited Isaiah Abraham. Not sure how ready he will be for this job as a freshman but after that I know he'll be ready.

Yup. Roster recycling. Especially with all the transfers added in. https://www.on3.com/os/news/roster-recycling-is-new-normal-with-ncaa-college-basketball-transfer-portal-duke-blue-devils/

He did this last year also. Tomorrow morning at 9:30. Wonder if he'll talk to the media after. Head coach Dan Hurley will do the honor again on Wednesday morning, with members of his coaching staff, UConn president Radenka Maric and Gov. Ned Lamont also on hand at the New York Stock Exchange...

Where else would it be? It'll be either at Gampel or XL Center.

I believe it would for some.

Yeah but it stinks for Nova that the Big 12-Big East Challenge only gives Nova a buy type game.

There was no way they were going to go with the same matchup from last season. But getting Baylor at home is the next best thing.

Though he seems to have his pick of schools to choose from, UConn may have a leg up in the race to land Brea simply because of where he’s from. The Washington Heights, N.Y., native played high school basketball at Monsignor Scanlan, a private school in the Bronx, and a large contingent of fans...

St. John's picks up USC transfer Vince Iwuchukwu. Imagine this board trying to spell that one? Lol He wants to win a championship, eh? With St. John's? https://www.zagsblog.com/2024/04/23/st-johns-picks-up-usc-transfer-vince-iwuchukwu/

His mother is from Ukraine and his father is from Belarus. He's definitely not Irish! Lol

What were the snacks in his hotel room? They need to make chocolate lollipops in the form of the national championship trophy. Those would see like hotcakes in the market.

"We are very excited to have a big man with Tarris' high major experience join our program," head coach Dan Hurley said. "His size, talent and athleticism at the center position gives us the potential to continue receiving tremendous production from that spot - which has contributed so much to...

Here's the quote. “What (Diarra) envisions for himself next year in terms of role has got to be aligned with what ours is,” Hurley said. “I think what’s been effective for us the last two years is that the level of honesty has created great rosters. Because the players that didn’t align with...

Taliek Brown was another

In the Ahmad Nowell article today Borges wrote: A national top-35 recruit, Nowell would seem to be in line for immediate playing time (possibly even starting) for the Huskies. With Castle and Tristen Newton now chasing their NBA dreams, there is a void in the UConn backcourt. Steady senior...

I would love to know how the staff prioritizes transfers. There are so many of them and Hurley seems to be pretty picky about what he wants. But since it's all happening so quickly and with so many recruits they might not know a lot about, it must be a tough job to sift through all the transfers.

Unlimited official college visits now. Just can't officially visit a college more than once each academic year.

Unlimited transfers are now official https://www.espn.com/espn/story/_/id/40001131/ncaa-board-ratifies-immediate-eligibility-transfers

Should I do another one of those tutorials? While we're doing that one we could teach everyone how to embed tweets in their posts too (so you don't have to click on the link to see what it's about).

I forgot to provide the alternate access so here it is. But it seems like everyone knows how to do it now since nobody asks for it anymore when it's not provided. Can incoming freshman Ahmad Nowell win starting job for UConn men's basketball? 'Have to show it

I'm pretty sure I actually broke that news on the Yard. This was before there was Twitter, Instagram and all that social media stuff. I was getting ready to go out and figured I'd check some of the recruiting sites before I left. Mike Sullivan of Rivals had the news first and there was a Rivals...

Article from the Register. Or maybe Nowell can win the job, either right off the bat like Castle did this past season, or later in the year. Either way, he hasn't talked about it much with Dan Hurley and the UConn coaching staff. "That hasn't been really much of a conversation," Nowell said...

We could always schedule Cincy at home as a buy game. No need to waste the Big 12 game on that.

I save that for the posters who spell our players' names wrong. :)

Well considering he thinks Jaylin Stewart's last name is Steward and Samson Johnson's first name is Sampson, you may be on to something. :)

The portal is open March 18 through May 1. But if you have enough credits to graduate this spring then you can enter the portal at any time. Spencer graduated last spring so that's why he could enter after May 1. Also, if a head coach is fired or gets another job then players of that team are...

PC picks up Chicago St. transfer Wesley Cardet. https://247sports.com/college/basketball/recruiting/article/college-basketball-transfer-portal-chicago-state-providence-wesley-cardet-230787707/

It's a lost cause. The kid was a first team All American, Final Four MVP, won not one but two national championships in his time here, and he's on the wall. His name is as important as any of the greats on that wall. And yet some people on here refuse to spell his name right. At this point...

It was posted a few times during the Final Four. Of course it was. Does anything out there in the media universe not get posted here within hours? But there were a million posts during the Final Four so worth watching again if you missed it...

I would think not. He lost his appeal earlier this year to gain another season of eligibility. And then he killed it this season and got noticed enough that he's on draft boards. So that this point I highly doubt he wants to try pushing it with his eligibility.
