Message: [QUOTE="hardcorehusky, post: 2078167, member: 593"] This year's senior class was the what we could get with the NCAA APR crap hanging over the program. Brimah and Facey and Terrence Samuel. G-d bless all of them, but they weren't typical UCONN recruits. This year, we lost Daniel Hamilton- our point forward and brought in a really good freshman class and a a highly decorated transfer. After 4 games, we had lost our point guard and best scorer. Then the injuries really kicked in on a team that had no depth and put kids in positions they weren't ready for. Losing to Northeastern and BU was unacceptable- but had this team stayed together - we would have had a much better year and be trending up for next week. There are bad cycles- Dyson, Robinson et al was not a productive class by the time they were upper classmen. This class were great kids but not at the level of player we are used to. KO knows the limitations and Vital, Gilbert,Jackson, Diarra and Durham, Jalen before them and Danny Ham before them shows us KO can recruit. Danny Ham improved but left too early, Jalen really improved over the last 2 years(and has played with no legs for the last few games), and the freshman all improved this year. Guys are getting better. As we get players that are less limited into the system- we will be back as soon as next year. [/QUOTE]
