2020 Recruiting: Niels Lane offered

[WrenchFan69]

Should have a good shot here

Plan C behind Jackson and Abdur-Rahim?

No. It's a first to commit situation I'd think. Wouldn't be surprised if the staff triednto get 2 of them either

I see Jackson and JAR as wings and Lane as a guard (like Mané). Lane actually used to play PG but hasn’t been playing that role this spring.

Beautiful facility and a testament to the great job the architect did translating what they felt was important into a physical plant that is very attractive and meets their objectives.

But, they have to hope recruits don't ask many questions or ask any in depth questions.

Any of them that give it any thought would have to question the hype throughout the building about: championships; Blaney's comment about "THE final four"; plus the one championship trophy on display. Doesn't say much about results but hey, as Canon says, image is everything, and this image is pretty nice.

Nobody can match what UConn has in trophy's but then again nobody just lays down and says well we can't compete and and that is what this facility is about.

Lane kind of reminds me of a better B Adams. Big, strong, defensive guard with a reputation for shooting it.

I agree but unless he makes big strides in ball handling he will see a lot of time at the 3, especially in a mostly 3 guard system like Hurley runs. He overlaps with Jackson in a lot of ways, could be a plan b.

Definitely possible. But assuming 3 schollies.. 1 has to be a big. Other than that, there's no true positional needs. If I'm Hurley I'm just getting the 2 most talented players available regardless of position. Especially if they have unique skill sets on the wing like JAR, Jackson, and Lane do.

Kid is a STUD. One of the best defensive guards I have seen in circuit. Tri-state is loaded with 2020 kids, needless to say big class for us.

Agree, Chief wants a Big or maybe two. Casual Fans are enthralled by guards but you still need the trench warfare dudes to go deep into the tournament. Yeah, occasionally guards can do it on their own by draining threes, but Chief is about “The Grind” and consistency to take you to “The Big Moment”.

whatever it's worth- just noticed lane's 247 prediction moved to 100% xavier. too bad he wont be at the highschool camp in storrs.

Cam Thomas is the clear #1 priority at SG now.

It’s not quite the same difference as there once was. Take a look at our fancy new men’s basketball center.

They should contact Rutgers who can teach them to think outside the box.

Friar, great job improving the the look of the landscape and buildings. Any work on the student body?

 

[Hans Sprungfeld]

Sign me up for anyone with a good ranking named Niels.

Remember when he made like 72 of his first 75 3s his senior year or something crazy like that! Love Giffey!

Before we get too far into this, what's the official pronunciation on his last name?

Interestingly enough PC has a number one overall pick. Who also holds the distinction of being the only person to also be selected as Mr. Irrelevant in the NFL draft. There, if you can figure it out you will know an awesome sports trivia question answer. You're welcome.

Dude pay attention this was a long time ago, you knuckleheads keep quoting me.

Significant improvement, check out the dance team when you guys get in

 

[Chief00]

Here is George Blaney's son giving a tour.

Agree, it’s a great building.

It's okay we know that you are very proud of it. Very proud indeed.
