Wow what a job by the staff - couldn’t have worked out any better for us.

 

[3rdbass]

Starting Lineup and shooting set. PG Castle, SG/SF Newton, SG/SF Spencer, PF Karaban and C Clinigan. With a great young bench we are loaded for another Championship run. I wouldn't mind a Joey C. pickup as our last transfer. Never can have enough shooting as we saw last year.

 

[REB1094]

Welcome Cam! We have a much needed shooter, and Cam has a team that knows how to make sure shooters succeed. A complete win/win scenario here. Congrats to all involved and I’m looking forward to him having a great year

We have to keep this staff together.

Dan gets his man. (and staff, too, but didn't want to disrupt the rhyme).

Let’s Gooooooo!!!!! Welcome to Connecticut Cam. Good. Now we can officially start our offseason. These decisions were starting to factor into the quality of my summer grilling.

[UconnPT2007]

Castle/Newton/Spencer/Karaban/Clingan with Ball, Ross, Stewart, Diarra, Samson J, and Singare on the bench.

Guess would be Castle plays the 3 on defense due to his size. Shooters at every position, just a bit smaller as a team than last years monsters.

Welcome Cam! Staff is cooking……. NEXT? In the best of ways!

 

[Marat]

Seeing this thread with so few responses meant my 1st instinct was not to trust the thread title.

Guess I'm still recovering from one too many kicks to the nuts since 2014.

Welcome Cam! May your contributions next year continue to help my recovery.

I'm officially excited for next year.

Very nice get for UConn in the transfer portal. I think Cam will do great things for this UConn team and the players on this roster look like they complement each other nicely.

 

[navery12]

We have a legit 2 deep rotation (and the 10 will likely become 8 or 9 by conference play)

PG - Castle, Diarra (w/ Newton minutes too)
SG - Newton, Ball
SF - Spencer, Ross
PF - Karaban, Stewart
C - Clingan, Johnson

Can't be understated how big this is. Doesn't force any freshman into too big of a role, but still plenty of minutes available for them. And tons of flexibility from the bench guys, and they all complement different pieces of the lineups

 

[Phoenixhusky]

Great pickup to get such a great shooter to replace some of J Hawkins shooting. Should open up things for Clingan as well.

 

[Nebraskan18]

CAN NOT WAIT to go watch us beat Kansas at The Phog

 

[Fishy]

Perfect.

Filled that last glaring need.
