    UConn and the Transfer Portal

    Where did Hurley say that no one on UConn’s staff would be contacting any portal targets until they were done playing?

    2024 Recruiting: Riley Kugel top 4

    UConn and Houston are very interesting schools on the list of a guy that by all accounts didn’t really buy in all the way and whose issues seemed self-inflicted. Both coaches are among the most demanding in college basketball as far as that side of things goes. On the outset seems a bit odd...

    Cam Spencer lights UConn's Fire

    The real question is who will be our demonstrative competitive psycho (meant in the best possible way) next year? We had Andre last year and Cam this year. That role is wide open for next year. AK is clearly very competitive but isn’t nearly as demonstrative about it on the court. Diarra shows...

    2024 Recruiting: Liam McNeeley

    Wait what? When did anyone hate on the posts you made about the towel? I feel like the reaction to those were overwhelmingly positive and people thought that was a cool story to share. I feel like maybe you're exaggerating things a bit here.

    Re-Watching the Championship Game for SDSU Tidbits

    This. I went back and watched the E8, F4, and champ game recently and it’s kind of incredible how much more complex our sets and off-ball actions are this year. Last year it was pretty clear that plan 1A was get the ball in to Sanogo and let him go to work and then have Hawkins and...

    San Diego Union Tribune: "UConn still not a Blue Blood."

    That feels like the correct summation of the piece. There’s no slight to get offended by. It was just lazy “journalism”. A summarization of the Wikipedia page of UConn’s basketball history with a debate that’s been had a million times between media talking heads and on message boards sprinkled in.

    San Diego Union Tribune: "UConn still not a Blue Blood."

    Cool, let’s recycle that cliche debate. Feels like someone ran out of story idea on this one.

    My god I’m going to miss Cam next year.

    OT: John Calipari to return as Kentucky men's basketball coach

    The guy can coach offense. Can he coach the rest of it still? His teams were making wildly stupid plays on defense and their attention to detail was just embarrassing. That was with two fifth year seniors and a sophomore in the starting lineup. Maybe it’s complacency on his part, maybe it’s just...

    OT: John Calipari to return as Kentucky men's basketball coach

    I’m sure they will, but that program requires a significant cultural change as far as preparation, accountability, attention to detail, and the standard to which players in that program are held. I’m VERY skeptical Cal is going to be able to change his stripes there even with an older team. That...

    Three of Sixteen!

    Unfortunately for kobe, those bearcats just didn’t have enough basketball might to stave off a dominating performance by this guy:

    UConn and the Transfer Portal

    He’s 6’7 and has the potential to be a 40+% three point shooter. That’s enough to make him really valuable.

    Devin Carter returning?

    Just waiting for this to be related to some NIL merch he’s trying to cash in before he bounces to the NBA.

    How to guard Jaedon leedee

    They’re going to have to give him help. No way they’re going to ask LeDee to D up Clingan one-on-one all game. But that’s a tough ask too with Clingan’s passing and the team’s cutting ability.

    UConn and the Transfer Portal

    That’s been my thought. If he comes in, next year it feels like he’s competing for a Joey C role as a bench shooter and little more.

    Kid can put it in the bucket and has size.

    UConn and the Transfer Portal

    A quick look at his stats and game log suggests a lot may have been foul-related. Over 4 fouls per 40 and a lot of games with 4 fouls.

    Terrence Shannon Jr. will remain unavailable to the media, pursuant to the advice of his legal counsel.

    Obtain isn’t a defendant in a felony criminal case. Whether he is actually guilty or innocent, he should ABSOLUTELY not be speaking to the media.

    2024 Recruiting: Big Cliff Omoruyi enters portal

    I truly don’t mean this in a demeaning way, but it’s okay not to have a strong opinion on something that you don’t understand. That happens A LOT in my life. Enjoy the ride. He’s gone after it’s over.

    You need a podcast. We could start a campaign to get Luke Murray on as a guest to discuss offensive theory.

    2024 Recruiting: Big Cliff Omoruyi enters portal

    My guess is we see this a lot. There are some big programs with big NIL left in the tournament. If you’re a big name transfer and don’t already have your destination confirmed, no idea why you’d limit your options.

    NBA not enthralled with Zach Edney

    Should have clarified, my point on whether someone would burn a roster spot is long-term focused. Totally agree he’ll get a spot for at least a few years.

    How to guard Jaedon leedee

    I think the hatred for the high hedge is overstated. When you have the right personnel to do it, it can be very effective. When you have the wrong personnel and it leads to cheap fouls 25 ft from the basket, it gets frustrating. Samson’s athleticism and ability to recover quickly are perfect for...

    NBA not enthralled with Zach Edney

    I think Edey’s ceiling is as a matchup-dependent bench big. The question is whether a team is going to want to burn a roster spot on him with as little versatility as he’ll have in the NBA. No one is going to be designing an offense or defense around him.

    You were so close. Could have taken this post one step further and said DC should return to school next year and you would have really completed the hot take.

    2024 Recruiting: Liam McNeeley

    3/4. Defensive position is pretty similar to Stewart and the two of them would give a lot of versatility. I’m fascinated to see how Hurley does with these elite shooter recruits going forward. We now have two years of Hurley running the most NBA-like offensive sets (this year even more so) in...

    How to guard Jaedon leedee

    I feel like we’re turning LeDee into Giannis in this thread. That’s just not his game. He’s not going to be taking anyone off the dribble from 20 feet out. He’s a solid shooter at very low volume and only brings it out when he is WIDE open. I’ve watched several SDSU games and I’m not sure I’ve...
