Cooper Flagg sets official UConn Visit!

[Marat]

On the other hand, can there be any doubt that men's basketball is the top sport at UConn?

Let's rephrase that as just basketball is tops.

 

[Marat]

Yep, the football game could be the deal-breaker. Yikes.

It was to convince him that Duke is a football school, and UConn is all about basketball.

 

[Fishy]

Significant in that one of those 2 is riding the pine when Cooper commits. Plus isnt it positionless basketball now? Im sure Scheyer can find a way (like Hurley and Self) to get a 6'9" kid with a handle on the floor from 2-5

Oh, they definitely can. And there’s like a 95% chance they’ll get the chance.

But they have a kid very much like Flagg entering this year, so just batty that they can stockpile these five star small forwards and all of them take it on faith that they’ll start

Andrea has to cook up some magic in the kitchen tonite. Talk about pressure.

There is no word to describe that other than “obscene” . What can you do? I like our guys.

Could someone enlighten me how an insider like this would glean this info ? Like who of important people close to flagg or connected to him would say this or even know ? Or is it as obvious as like it’s coming straight from from his camp

It would be funny if he decides Kansas….if that were to happen this board could implode

 

[Waquoit]

I’m amazed some of you can even dress yourselves without assistance when I read stuff like this.

I took it as sarcasm

"One of his followers asked whether UConn fans should have any hope about Cooper Flagg"
Hope? If Cooper came here itd be awesome no doubt but if he doesnt i for one am not going to be crushed because 1. Him coming here has always been a long shot and 2. If i do feel at all down about it ill be comforted by watching a replay of #5.

The Boneyard has some exceptionally dumb posters, but this thread is next level. A win or loss in a football game does not matter. It's about the tailgate experience, the same as every other college student. That's why it's a part of the visit

The 500 people at the game threw some kick tailgates today. I'm sure he was impressed.

Did he sign yet!?!?!?!

 

[Hurleyman216]

The UConn football team just showed Cooper that we are 100% invested in basketball and there will be no bigger man on campus if he commits here.

 

[Tenspro2002]

Guys, the #1 recruit in the nation isn’t making the most important decision of his life based on a college football game.

This.

If the football game mattered, it was basically a worst-case scenario.

However, it almost certainly doesn't matter at all.

Are there any official visits that don't "go well"?

It's all going to be about what Hurley tells him about how he'll use him, how he'll get him ready for the NBA, etc. Also, how he feels about the other guys on the team. I highly doubt the football game will have any bearing on his decision.

Just for fun does anyone know how many 5 stars Duke has on their roster this year and how many so far for next year?

 

[Dove]

Did he sign yet!?!?!?!

20 minutes.
