2024 Recruiting: Ahmad Nowell committed to UConn!

[husky99]

Enjoy. It’s probably a good week to take off while the team is in Europe. I highly doubt any big announcements will happen while the staff is overseas.

I am a teacher and do lite work most days over the summer. Try to rewrite or research curriculum changes daily... does not always happen

We need a north south guy.
Some who can make a run at the hoop. Dyson Napier kemba like (yes yes those are big names)... and AN has that skill

The strangest thing about this player is that he’s listed as 6’ but it just doesn’t show up on tape. If someone told me he was 6’2.5 I would believe them.

a bruiser with shifty handles is difficult to contain

Because he’s got a stocky build. If he was a skinny guy it’d be easier to differentiate his size from taller players

Khalid, Kemba, Bazz, Boatright..,,,,I think we have enough evidence that a guy doesn’t have to be 6’4” to be pretty darn good.

I wasn’t saying anything to suggest that his height was a deterrent lol. All I said was that he looks taller than his height because he’s probably got an extra 20 pounds of pure muscle on him.

Pretty good PG lineage right there LOL

They had 3 or 4 awards given out to 20 players, so pretty good that he got one (and kinda the one we expected based on everything that has been said about him)

I’m definitely behind the curve, but what is this formula zero canp?

Damian Lillard's camp. A lot of the NBA guys have these skill camps over the summer. Castle and Nowell were at this one. Karaban went to Tatum's.

 

[HuskyHawk]

Man. I love this. Exactly what I want in a physically strong but vertically challenged PG. We are going to love this kid. I imagine he has a Dan Hurley like level of crazy intensity.

Sweet. Dame is the perfect player to learn from

 

[husky99]

This kid's attitude, tenacity and heart is loved by the staff i heard.

saw someone a few weeks ago post that Nowell was closer to 5'9", hard to say since we can't see their footwear and Dame is leaning, but Dame measured in at 6'2.75" in shoes at the 2012 NBA Draft Combine, Nowell looks like a 6 footer to me.

I dont care if he is Tyrion Lannister. Kid is a pit bull and will Ball his brains out here (in a couple ways) , So happy it was him and not Boogie. THIS is a UConn guard.
