Can anyone confirm if Aidan an/or Liam were/have been running everywhere when they were on campus for their visits? I think that's important...

BREAKING: Not Mahaney related, but Liam has just followed Hurley on Instagram days after the visit.

You must work for a pharmaceutical company. With the Bossi post this place went into depression. With this post people will become manic. Bipolar forum.
 
So if we got Mahaney and McNeeley, what's our rotation? Are we assuming Karaban is back?

Hass/Nowell
Mahaney/Ball
McNeeley/Ross
Stewart/
Reed/Johnson/Singare

Sorry, are you talking about AK? He's a red shirt junior, so it's his 4th year in college. He could already be close to graduating without staying another year. His parents are highly educated and his Mom's has a PhD. To me that long thank you post was a clear sign he's gone. I think even if he's a 2nd rounder he's gone.

Alex came in a semester early I believe so he’s been on campus 2.5 years at this point.

Have a good day too. I hope youre right and im wrong. I think this is easily quantifiable down the road when the draft comes. With his measurables and skills he'd be lucky to be drafted. As you admitted he lacks Spencer's intangibles. So tell me what qualities will make him lottery material?

You thinking that anyone who disagrees with youre belief that he'll be in the lottery has clearly never seen him play, or doesnt agree with you is bonkers. Ive seen him play about 8-10 games. His OT performance vs Gonzaga was great. I said i'd love to have him. I guarantee you I've watched as much basketball here as anyone on the board over the last 40 years, a high school coach for 25 of them. Check my posts, I was saying Spencer had Nadav qualities BEFORE the season started. But as I said, we will see With Mahaney in a couple years. Hope he comes here and you are right. But to be honest you saying you want him over McNeeley is a bit of a tell

That’s a good point. With Mahaney, McNeeley, and Karaban it would look something like…

Diarra/Nowell
Mahaney/Ball
Stewart/McNeeley
Karaban
Reed/Johnson

Gonna be hard to keep all 9 of those guys happy with their role. Nowell might be fine with easing into college play but none of Mahaney, Ball, Stewart, or McNeeley are going to want to accept a reserve role similar to Joey C or Alleyne. That’s pretty much 9 guys all deserving of 25+ minutes a night.

Rant? Your bar for ranting is quite low. Have you been on the board long? Also, he's 21 and I graduated at 21, so it is possible.

How many years were you in college? It's not about his age. Remember he came to UConn one semester later than the normal college student. He was 19 by the time he got here.

Boneyard way! People throwing culture fit and "just chasing the bag" and the kid clearly is taking his time to make a well-informed and thoughtful decision for, you know, his life and he is being criticized. That seems like the type of kid who would fit our culture perfectly.

But, but, but don't you know some people are anxious because their self esteem is at stake and being forced to wait is stressful............
 
LaMont Butler just committed to Kentucky. Nit sure if this changes anything here. Probably not. He is a guard so just mentioning it. Also have a couple other guards visiting this weekend.

Karaban has spent his summers in Storrs. If you count the summer as a semester, then he has been here for 7 semesters.

The more academically inclined athletes often graduate in 3 years if that is a goal.
