Kwintin tweet

[andy34]

He deleted it already, might have been because of a typo ("definitely" frequently autocorrects to "defiantly") but more likely he thought better of it.

Most definitely

 

[Pgh2Storrs]

He tweeted this one earlier as well.

 

[Dream Jobbed 2.0]

Why is he defiantly writing a book? Who told him he couldn’t write a book?

 

[polycom]

This is what we get for recruiting a YouTube dunker to a high major D1 program. Who thought this was a good idea...

 

[Hi-Low]

Obviously I don't know the whole story but don't understand his problem. He isn't a legitimate D1 basketball player and yet he got a scholarship from UConn, just get your degree and go away please.

 

[GuardU]

I have the feeling tough conversations are beginning to take place. I don't see why he would wait this long to tweet subliminal messages unless there are other's that feel the same...

 

[awfuldan]

His Instagram story this morning (also deleted) was of him flying back to CT to attend class. Guessing that he felt some frustration over having to do that, hence the tweets. Really not a good look by him though.

 

[NJHoops]

It would be helpful for him to remember that a more cutthroat staff would have dropped him last Spring, with no scholarship and a year to go until graduation. He seems kind of impulsive with regards to social media. He’s certainly not alone in that approach. He’s not a bad guy, and I wish him well. Also, maybe he’s mad that, at some schools, players actually have to attend class to have them count.

 

[kansashusky]

We can't get Hurley's kids in here quick enough.

 

[UofCT]

Perhaps it's a positive book.

 

[HuskyHawk]

Good grief. I hope this is not some tell-all soap opera crap. If it is positive about the program great, if not...I will not be pleased.

 

[Pgh2Storrs]

It seems like a regrettable situation all around. I think most can read between the lines and figure out what happened, but there’s no sense in speculation. I hope, despite his frustration with whatever it is that went down, he finishes his degree.

 

[pj]

Sounds like UConn wants him to pass his classes so he doesn't hit the APR. Maybe they can come after his scholarship money if he skips school?

 

[gtcam]

Yep
And they will all be sprinkled with fairy dust and a guarantee that there will be no bumps in the road
The kid was all in when DH took over and the coach spoke highly of him as a person and a great kid to have on the team. Something happened behind the scenes - crap happens
I will bet that every program goes through issues with at least one player nearly every season - even Wagner and URI the past decade
JC had plenty in his tenure
Let's forge ahead and quit the endless finger pointing.

JC and Chief

Those things aren’t mutually exclusive. Hurley can still think he’s a good guy and also hold him to standards that he may bristle against. It’s just coaching. And, there wasn’t much drama at all at URI and Wagner. There was one player, that he inherited from the previous coach, in Hurley’s second year that was dismissed, but that’s really it. That doesn’t mean everything will be smooth, but moving forward, guys will be recruited into the current staff’s standards and expectations, which may be better, worse, or just different than the previous staff’s. That’s the normalcy of change.

To increase our talent level, hell yes. But character-wise Hurley inherited a bunch of good kids.

 

[Lefty2one]

I haven't followed the team that closely for the last two months. Was his indefinite suspension ever lifted? Has he been with the team at all: practicing, on the bench, etc or was he banished since early Jan?

Don't believe so. He wasn't honored at senior night either

 

[Hans Sprungfeld]

Perhaps it's a positive book.

"Carry Wood, Chop Water"

 

[Letsgohuskies11]

Maybe its a book about how to Dunk ?

 

[UconnU]

I bet Uconn threatened to come after him for scholarship money if he didnt return.

 

[Husky25]

Meh.

Is there demand for a book about how dysfunctional UConn basketball was for the past three seasons? Isn't it already a matter of public record because of the Ollie situation?
