Its pretty clear that this staff has a formula and budgets 2 years out. They value and reward retention more than most programs, they like to keep enough for 1 or 2 major portal pieces and they like to pay/value freshmen who fit their profile and are willing to accept fair value. Mingo does...

UConn won’t meet his asking price.

Yes!!!!!! Perfect fit.

I’d be very surprised if Mingo comes to Storrs.

Guys, I said it earlier. We are at a point now in the college landscape that UConn lands its top priorities. The staff is really smart about it and allocating resources.

I am finding it fascinating how UConn is allocating its resources. My feeling is if they value landrew at fair value, he will be a huskie. A kid with his ability doesn’t have nor should he take a huge discount but 100-200k more at Louisville shouldn’t matter either.

Reminds me of the great line on Keyser Soze, “the greatest trick the devil ever pulled was convincing the world he didn’t exist”. People on the boneyard and coach Cal are out there believing UConn is missing on top recruits. Meanwhile, Hurley and Co land exactly who they actually covet.

It simple. This isn’t just about the money and Toure made an extremely sensible decision given the circumstances. It’s about UConn and the value this staff placed on Toure and his fit. Toure’s profile doesn’t match what they are looking for. This is only a talking point because where he is...

Spoken like a true CT legend!

Cal buys the players looking to get bought.

Staying here.

Nothing personal but this is such a dumb take. Sure we can criticize him. He took the quick bag and an easy path. He could have come to UConn, still have done very well financially, earned his spot and become a ct legend. If we can’t criticize him, can we applaud guys like Alex, Solo, and Stewie...

Absolutely loved how the staff handled this. Sometimes the hardest thing in life is to show restraint. This staff has a formula and refuses to deviate from it no matter the circumstance.

UCann.

Fits the "Danny" profile. Welcome aboard Junior!
