AJ Reeves, Cole Swider & David Duke

[superjohn]

Concerned about our recruiting.

 

[UConnStats]

Concerned about our recruiting.

Rivals Rankings for our 2017 class
MAL - 38
Polley - 100
Carlton - 140

All 3 are coming in knowing they won't be starting. Literally none of KO's 2018 targets has chosen a team or even taken official visits yet. In my opinion, it's way too early to be concerned. No disrespect obviously

 

[Kenny11]

Reeves kind of reminds me of Denham Brown...could end up even being better. He is our priority right?

 

[husky99]

I think David Duke is the top on the recruiting chart

Confirmed.

 

[BUConn10]

Confirmed.

Better than a Woj Bomb.

Reeves favorited this:

And fwiw the last 10 or so "likes" by Duke ok Twitter are all about his UConn offer. Swider has a bunch as well.

Tough to compare to DB - did Reeves get 111 points in a game?

 

[FASTEDDY]

Reeves on Providence's campus today. Took in practice.

They might be considered the leaders at this point. Can anyone confirm?

 

[Zionn]

Yup

 

[7774]

Yup

You've already "Next'd" Swider and Duke, right?

 

[Zionn]

Playing catch up on all three......

 

[Chief00]

They have visited PC liked Hami visited UConn. Multiple times. Glen Miller a month ago thought he had it under control - I don't buy it.

Playing catch up on all three.

Hearing the same..

 

[Chief00]

Teams have become pretty brazen with their negative recruiting against UConn. In reality , I guess Nova can make a case but some of these other schools it's pretty silly - unless you are an 18 year old kid?

 

[Chief00]

My vote would be to take Glen off the recruiting trail and if KO feels he needs him for scouting reports, zone defenses, keeping track of timeouts/fouls/player minutes, etc - then use him for that purpose and perhaps tours of the facilities / preparing class schedules and the like.

Ricky Moore's contribution is recruiting and maybe toughness - Is he making a difference in those areas?

 

[Matrim55]

Playing catch up on all three.

Who aren't we playing catch-up on in 2018, in your opinion?

 

[Chief00]

Catch up to PC and Nova for two. Certain big schools tough to gauge their real interest.

With JA and Gilbert and MAL maybe some of these guys are thinking UConn is too stacked
There is no guarantee that JA isn't staying 4 years and both AG and MAL will be entering soph seasons
Duke or Reeves would be fine - probably don't need/wont get both
Would love to get Swider but he might be the longest shot

How do you get a vote? Carry over proxy from the JC days????
I think RM and Kitchens should be the main recruiters behind KO

Swider and Reeves though play entirely different positions. They are wings, not PG or combos.

Glenn Miller did something to piss chief off, every thread seems like it contains some type of shot at Miller from chief, you mind clarifying chief?

So you are exercising your vote LOL

He must be envious of Miller's ability to breathe through his nose.
