It's so good. JJ really is the best at this and Hurley is playing chess while other college coaches are playing checkers. I can't even follow a fair amount of what Hurley is talking about with the action he runs.

To talk about pizza and sump pumps.

If he thinks bringing in 5 star recruits and pushing out 5 star recruits to have a team full of 5 star freshmen leading them is the recipe to win it all then good for him. It's going to fail.

6 freshmen and 2 returnees is a mess. Culture and experience matter a tremendous amount in college basketball.

It's a mess there, bad culture and Scheyer doesn't know what he's doing.

This kid can play and was an awesome teammate. He's going to do well wherever he ends up and I'll be following his career. Won two national championships in his first two seasons and now will have his choice of where to get serious playing time, not a bad life.

This is true about his shot, word was he improved it in the offseason but it didn't translate to the court. Sean Miller said Claude played through an elbow injury all season and there's no doubt it impacted his three point shooting. He's getting a procedure done on his elbow.

Haven't had a chance to listen to this one yet but I bet it's a good one...

Traore is an elite player, have seen nothing to suggest he's coming here.

SGA is Canadian and Jokic is winning the MVP. Might be another decade before we get another American born MVP.

Hasheem was not bigger than Donovan.

He'll be back.

And what would be the price tag for creating dorms for an additional 15,000 students, changing the entire infrastructure of the campus and creating new roads and lanes in and out of campus, hiring another 800+ professors and additional faculty, building a new on campus arena, expanding and...

Sure. Yep, if that's the case they'll banish the P3/4 and then Ohio State, Michigan, Texas, Alabama, and Georgia will banish everyone else.

What's wrong with you? Maybe the dumbest thing I've ever read on this board. Go and be a Rutgers fan.

More than double the undergrad population. Sure thing.

If you ever watch Field of 68 Goodman is looking at his phone the entire show pretending he's getting secret information about all this stuff, it's hilarious.

I don't believe most of these numbers people throw out for these players, I think they're pulling it out of their arses.

What's your point? Your points seem to be that UConn can/will become CCNY in basketball and that UConn football hasn't been dreadful for a long time. If those aren't the points you're making can you please explain what the points you're making are?

Or Nova or Louisville

Agreed but it wasn't treated like an afterthought until more recently. They built top of the line practice/training facilities at that time but the program was embarrassed when the snake Edsall slipped out in the dark of night and then told everyone Maryland football is his dream job. They...

You're having trouble with someone saying UConn football has been dreadful for a long time and you brought up CCNY basketball in regards to UConn basketball. Keep embarrassing yourself.

When they won the national championship, pretty damn good. People noticed we were bad for three seasons under Ollie. Now people see us as the best basketball program in the country. Again, most titles out of anyone in the last 50 years. Man, you're really struggling.

There's no such thing as a first round promise. I'm sure Alex and his agent know that.

Yep, a recency bias. UConn men's basketball has won the most championships in the last 50 years. That may be recent to you but it's not to most.

They've been a laughingstock for over a decade. That's a long time in my book.

What does when he graduated have to do with it? Are you disputing his statement that UConn football has been dreadful for a long time?

You might as well throw Yale and Carlisle football in there as well.

He'll be back, he's not ready to play in the NBA.

Xavier should be very good next season if Freemantle and Jerome Hunter stay healthy. Claude, McKnight, Swain. Maddox, Hugely, and it looks like they'll get Ryan Conwell from Indiana State in the portal.

Kansas guys I know wish Harris and Dickinson would just move on already.

I'm sure the silly lists that the talking heads come out with will have Kansas and Duke as the teams to beat but no way in hell will Kansas actually be the team to beat.

MLB, NFL, NBA they just sweep this stuff under the rug. People might be outraged for a few days and then it's back to nobody caring. Look at how Stern made the whole reffing scandal go away and got his huge NBA TV deal. They were fixing NBA playoff games with NBA championships on the line.

I don't think the basketball mercenary thing is a good approach if you want to win championships but Self seems to think he can buy himself another ring.

What can we possibly do? I have zero fear of being left out in basketball. We're the best basketball program in the country, there's too many good basketball teams in the country to contract, and the tournament is going to expand which I don't like.
