Let's hope they're not serious about playing together. And let's hope that Florida gets Leron Black.

 

[MadisonSquare Gordon]

Why would he have URI on his list?

 

[superjohn]

Terrell wants to play point guard in college, Providence will have Kris Dunn and Brandon Austin will handle the ball a lot too. I think URI could be a great fit for him, Hurley is doing big things there,

 

[Matrim55]

Why would he have URI on his list?

Hurley is a good recruiter.

 

[MadisonSquare Gordon]

Hurley is a good recruiter.

It's still URI but fair enough.

 

[Huskyforlife]

looks like providence

 

[mauconnfan]

Why would he have URI on his list?

Hurley will do a nice job at URI, may have a better team than PC soon enough!!

If they're inseparable the jury's ready otherwise I like our chances!

 

[3uconn]

My guess now:
Terrell to URI
Abu to UConn

Is the A-10 much worse than the AAC?

It's still URI but fair enough.

 

[Matrim55]

Is the A-10 much worse than the AAC?

He's not signing for a conference, he's signing for a team. UConn could play in the NVL and still be a national power.

 

[HuskiesAllDay]

Is the A-10 much worse than the AAC?

No but URI is much worse than Uconn. As in 1/20th as good of a program. He said "why URI", not "why that crappy conference URI is in"?

What looks like Providence?

 

[superjohn]

My guess now:
Terrell to URI
Abu to UConn

Agreed

 

[Clockshop]

I'll take a shot for fun:

Abu - Prov
Chukwu - Prov

Robinson or Larrier - UConn
Perkins or McLaughlin - UConn

 

[Jaybo]

I'm still not sure.don't they both have a visit to PC coming up?

 

[mauconnfan]

Abu, Chukwu - Huskies

Perkins - Huskies

Surprise - Oubre - Huskies

 

[Deleted member 3149]

Abu, Chukwu - Huskies

Perkins - Huskies

Surprise - Oubre - Huskies

I like that surprise pick!

My guess is Perkins, Hamilton, Abu, and Robinson are the class.

 

[Huskyforlife]

What looks like Providence?

both going to providence

 

[Clockshop]

"Surprise - Oubre - Huskies"

my #1 on the list for a long time but....KU lock

 

[Huskyforlife]

i'd guess: hamilton,robinson, perkins will be our class. maybe another 5th year transfer.

 

[his dudeness]

Abu is #1 on my wish list. Anyone know when he's planning on using his official visits?

Also, no one has made a point of this, but I can't imagine PC has a large muslim communitiy, while Uconn does. His religion seems important to him, and that could be a factor in his decision.

 

[champs99and04]

both going to providence

I'd be pretty surprised if UConn and Providence didn't split Abu and Chukwu. I realize they play different positions, but with Nolan, Facey, and Brimah in the fold at UConn, and Derocsiers and Henton at Providence, I'd assume they'd fight for minutes initially. I realize Florida is in the mix for Abu, but I think they'll end up with Black.

As for Terrell and Abu, wasn't it reported just last week that a package deal looked unlikely? UConn's going to get a visit with Abu and I don't think Ollie will let him leave without a verbal.

 

[his dudeness]

2 more analysts at 247 predicted abu to PC tonight, and Terrell to PC. Unless they have info that no one else has, I think they're just blowing air out of their @sses. Terrell would be behind Dunn, Austin, and Fortune. Abu would be behind Henton and Harris. Last I heard package deal was unlikely, I still say Abu comes to Storrs, where he would most likely start as a frosh over Facey
