Borges: UConn not done recruiting 2019

[Chief00]

Yeah about a month. Drummond committed here just a few days before classes started but we are running out of time.

Brings back fond memories of buying the entire bar a round when it got #ChiefCertified. A late night!

Stay in your lane bro.
His pompous posts just scream for criticism. If he’s 10% of what he thinks he is he should be able to handle it on his own.

Stay in your lane bro. Put him on ignore if you don't like his posts. The rest of us don't need to keep hearing your opinion on it.

 

[UconnU]

Gray probably isn’t good enough for UConn in 2020, let alone reclassifying up a year. Most of the teams that offered him back in May are no longer actively recruiting him.

I honestly forgot about him. He barely even plays for PSA but he’s a player being recruited on upside/potential. Didn’t borges article mention something about a longer term solution?

 

[ctchamps]

Yeah I'm sure the boneyard posters have a better eye than the staff. Give me a break.

You do realize the irony in this.

Even JC had some misses.

No I don’t accept posters at face value. However in my evaluation Ricker offers some reasonable insight on recruits.

But according to you I would have been better off being snarky and making a snide remark about a poster who equates a player he never saw but had no problem equating him to a player coached by someone he despises, who claims said coach never developed players and yet now acts excited about using said player for comparison.

Ignore is a good solution here. But not for you or @Chief00

Stay in your lane bro.

There are no lanes on the Yard. That way no one can say things like "stay in your lane bro".

Did someone delete the Niels Lane tread.

Yo stay in your “Lane” bro.

If you see an old man wearing a cap driving slowly on the highway I can assure you it’s not me. It’s some stranger checking out how people drive.

Not Cliff...

Holy pot calling the kettle black. There is only ONE person on this board craving attention and we all know who that is (hint, he's the ONLY one that is so desperate for attention that he refers to himself in the 3rd person). Go back into hiding Chief so you can wait for some news to break so you can break some news.

Complains someone strives for attention, then proceeds to give him all your attention. Classic BY

I love this place. Check out the @Travelman32 thread about horrible employers.

It’s hilarious how a guy baring his sole and expecting to get sympathy ends up with posters giving him good natured razzing.

The primary gist to that thread is just move on from a bad situation instead of whining about it.

Check out some of the posters. @Deepster (always ranting about Hartford murders), @whaler11 (take your pick there’s so many to choose from), and a large number of posters that if you introduce the letter k followed by the letter o you know they have to make a comment.

But my favorite is the guy who for an entire season ate a ketchup covered turkey sandwich. It was for the mojo. Moan, moan, moan. Guy acted like the Arby’s franchise closed down. Now this guy is laughing at a guy who got well played. No wonder that season was bad. What do you expect from a zeta dude.

I vote this year “The Juuuuurdge” hang @Travelman32 and the sentence should be an @champs99and04 type post after every game as opposed to a measly 4 page whining resignation letter type post.

@Chief00 rules. Be it shtick or reality, i'm entertained.

You know, the more I think about it...if EVERYONE stayed in their lane, this place would suck.

I’d be much more entertained if he could tell me if, while working for a large international bank, he saw where the Russian mob money ended up in the USA!

I think your lucky chief posts . Lucky or not he breaks news before anyone else. No idea how he does it

I tend to think it continuously moves along that spectrum and not even Chief knows where it is at any given time.

 

[kansashusky]

Doesn't sound like it will be Cliff.....

 

[Madmannsucks]

Just to be clear, all I will say at this point is...the grind continues. You will all know what that means soon enough. Sometime between now and October. Can't more specific for legal reasons.

Well maybe you should stay in your lane bro...

I agree Madmann somewhat..., for my part, post whatever you want, including whining about another poster, but then don't cry when you get called out for it, particularly if you are drone on about it repeatedly.

"Jimmy is a jerk" is fine, I guess, but "Jimmy is a jerk and I'm going keep posting it until you all agree with me" gets old fast.

That post would be ok, if you used a different name.
Love

are we still recruiting him? staff is very familiar with PSA but havent seen jamal mentioned here recently.

i'm optimistic about andre jackson but where cam thomas and niels lane wind up is anyone's guess at this point...

if we miss on thomas and lane but can still land a 4* SG like jamal it would be the ideal consolation prize (he's ranked 88 on the 247 composite with offers from florida, notre dame, ohio state, among others)

as far as name recognition goes he definitely looks better than sam cassell jr!

Were out on him. Haven’t been mentioned with him all season.

He's 6ft tall and can't pass the rock. Not sure we have much of a rol for him the way Hirley wants to construct the team

 

[bendm]

Were out on him

so we have 8 top 150 targets still in play for 2020 with 3 (maybe 4) open schollys?

SG
Thomas and Lane
SF
Jackson
PF
Ware and Springs
C
Cliff, Hugley, and Cardwell

hypothetically speaking, if we miss on cam and niels do we bank a scholly for 2021 or do we double dip at Center or PF?
