Really is amazing what a job he has done to turn this around and the move to the Big East seems to just accelerate that.

It's a strange world
Although Sanogo, a native of Mali, was unable to take an official visit to Connecticut’s campus because of the coronavirus, he was able to learn more about the school through Zoom calls with Hurley and UConn assistant Kimani Young,

Wild, 2020 year of the zoom. Feel like the staff showed a giant chart of @tcf15 scholarship grid and he saw the one spot at the bottom remaining and it made him commit. He didn’t wanna miss out on the opportunity to see the grid update with his name on it.
In all seriousness, what a get. Hurley and the staff are animals when it comes to recruiting. So excited for the team next year and moving forward, the momentum is real. We’re in good hands.
As Aretha Franklin would say.."Whose Zoomin who??" Dan Hurley and Kimani..That's who!!

Currently sipping coffee, blasting "damn it feels good to be a gangster", and visualizing Andre Jackson dunks, Sanogo rebounds, Akok blocks, and Bouknight nastiness next year.

UConn men land prized big man Adama Sanogo to fill last scholarship for 2020
Dan Hurley likes to employ a defense that pressures and forces turnovers. It’s a mentality that works on the recruiting front, too, and the Huskies kept pressing until they turned highly tout…

Virtually
(That was a bad pun but, seriously, from the Courant article: "They won him over with a series of videos of the campus, a 'virtual visit' and Zoom calls.")

From what I've watched of Sanogo, I think we'll see him at both the 4 and 5, which is to say he can play with any other big we have. Watch this play here. He catches the ball just above the 3-point line, dribbles past his man, makes a great pass down low, and then gets the offensive rebound and scores. You can't have a more impressive play than that as a big.
