We also beat out Duke, Kentucky and UNC for Braylon Mullins… I think some fans are not yet fully comprehending this new era of recruiting for UConn… when the staff really wants a recruit, they have a very high rate of success regardless of the competition.
The past few years Hurley/UConn have been very selective with offers. They are very intentional with recruiting and probably have one of the, if not the, highest batting average in college basketball when it comes to recruiting even when other schools have been recruiting a player for much...
I can see a plan where UConn plays 1-2 Big 12 team in 2025, 2-3 in 2026, 3-4 in 2027 and so on. Basically a long ramp to get UConn football up to a respectable level when we join as a full FB member in 2031 without being seen as a drag on Big 12 strength of schedule as UConn builds itself into...
This is big…pretty much confirms UConn will be joining the Big12…these “leaks” are not unintentional… and this was leaked from multiple Big 12 administrators and sources with ESPN… this is also done to allow the Big East die hard UConn fans to vent their frustrations over the weekend and come to...
I think Adama and Jackson have higher odds of being drafted than Hawkins, especially Jackson.
Hawkins' handle is really poor. He is only shooting 34% from the field and he has had layup attempts where he has completely missed the rim. Yes he has great shooting form, and he will likely become...
Can't believe you think putting Hawkins in for Andre is a good idea. A comparison between the two:
Athleticism: AJ > Hawkins
Defense: AJ > Hawkins
Rebounding: AJ > Hawkins
Handle: AJ > Hawkins
Passing: AJ > Hawkins
3 pt shooting %: AJ (46.9%) > Hawkins (32.1%)
FG %: AJ (42.9%) > Hawkins...
UConn is not a very good defensive rebounding team, even while having good rebounders such as Jackson, Martin & Sanogo. This would indicate that teams are sending guys to hit the offensive glass against UConn.
UConn not playing an uptempo offense or generating more offense in transition has...
1) The pass to Samson which led to a dunk, in which he was directing Samson to make a cut to the rim as he was passing;
2) the great bounce pass to Akok who was underneath the hoop & should have had an easy dunk but bobbled the pass;
3) the deep 3;
4) not taking any bad shots; and
5) not...

You do realize Sool didn’t get any playing time against the quality opponents UConn has played so far?
The fairly simple notion that Sool appears ready for more playing time has triggered some folks, as they perceive it as a threat to Gaffney.
Can't point to much on the box score for Diggins, but I came away impressed by his play. He didn't play hurried or out of control. Was calm, showed he has good handle and court vision. In 12 minutes he didn't commit a turnover and I thought his defense was pretty decent. He also knocked down...
Andre makes a huge impact on the glass and on defense. His passing and ability to push the tempo after grabbing a board are valuable assets too. He is also a very good free throw shooter.
As the season goes on, he will become more comfortable with his 3 pointer and will improve his overall...
