2019 Recruiting: Quinones Update

[tcf15]

Remember I posted the Chill picture a couple weeks ago. I can’t specifically comment on recruiting until the clouds clear - but a picture is worth a thousand words.

Chief recognizes the experienced posters picked up on that but I wanted to reiterate to the casual fans, who we desperately need! Don’t lose hope reading the Hartford Courant - they only have the ability to use the rear view mirror. To Chief the vision is starting to look pretty good looking forward.

I remember. For those who forget, you can find it in the Jalen Gaffney thread. Only the casual fans would have thought that image was in reference to the topic of the thread.

Points for creativity for the idea that Chief is subject to a "gag order" which prevents him from discussing recruiting pending the resolution of the Ollie imbroglio.

Just learning now that I am apparently a casual fan. Took the wind right out of my sails.

Hang in there you’re less than 20,000 posts away from die hard status

Better you find out now, Intlzncster, before you get your heart broke!

Was the Chill pic in regards to Precious? Can't remember.

It was regarding everyone

It was in regards to any recruit to UConn between now and the end of Hurley's tenure. Con______

This is the first time we're hearing about a package deal. Would be GREAT for the program. These are the 2 best players on a top 3-4 team on the circuit. I'm assuming we have the entire staff at this NE6 and New Heights combine this morning in CT(Hotchkiss School).

 

[CL82]

A couple of characteristics with a program will separate one from the rest that are recruiting him.

“I’m looking at player development and what’s going to get me to the next level past college,” said Quinones. “I’ll be looking at player development and people at my position who used to go there to see how they started and finished at school. The system, I like teams that play two ways and open system.”

Hmm, this sounds very good for us.

FIBA Stats (Dominican Republic) for those curious:

6 GP, 31.6 MIN, 17.5 PTS, 43.4% FG, 41.9% 3P, 75% FT, 6.3 REB, 3.5 AST, 3 TOV, 1 STL, .2 BLK

He was 3rd in scoring, and 1st among all 2018 and 2019 NCAA players/prospects. He outscored Quentin Grimes and Cole Anthony on a per FGA basis, and they we're USA's most utilized guards.

So many here are so negative (aka Stainmaster) - The NYC flood gates will open in the next two months. Think strategically and think lots of success.

Until we get a better symbol my Chill picture is out on my desk.

That’s why I go with the picture.

I'm not buying that. Hurley's been the coach for about three months and hasn't filled all his available scholarships yet. How long does he expect us to wait?

Wow, this is ridiculous. You think we could wait at least 20.minutes.

I hoped/assumed that was sarcasm

Quite frankly, I am sure many casual fans feel as you do. It’s completely understandable that we all want instant gratification without doing the necessary grind. It’s human nature and we need the casual fans who feel this way to hang in there and trust Chief.
I suggest you enjoy your summer and let the coaching staff worry about this stuff. Chief will be cheering them on in spirit until the KO related clouds lift.
