Akok Commits to UConn!!!

[uchusky32]

There are five stages of Syracuse grief. Let me know when they get to the "nose-picking" stage...

That s the first stage!

 

[Mokum]

I’m cracking up looking at the spit and Syracuse tweets. Going to check out their boards.Once again Uconn has the nations best coach! Kofi next!

 

[Palatine]

Hurley has certainly been impressive on the recruiting trail. He is proving to be a terrific closer.

 

[2Infinity]

We have no idea what his SATs are. I'm just glad to have him aboard for 2019-2020.

In my experience, any kid as quiet, thoughtful and reflective as Akok seems to be....is usually a pretty bright kid! I'd be surprised if there's any issue with his SAT. Welcome aboard AA!

 

[UConnDan97]

That s the first stage!

Then their head coach hasn't gotten past the first one in 50 years.

He hasn't gotten past the first title either...

 

[UChusky916]

Imagine how insane it would be if Hurley nabbed Kofi and Precious with our last two 2019 scholarships in addition to Akok and our guards?!

Can't believe that's an actual possibility. In Hurley we trust.

 

[uconnphil2016]

@Chief00 predicted this.

 

[Scrutineer]

Hurley must have been a marketing major.

This is very nice. Puts us in a great spot to sit back and wait for Kofi/Precious now

When you think about where we were, and where we are now, this class is already pretty unbelievable. The fact that it can somehow get that much better is just icing on the cake.

 

[uconnphil2016]

Check out Pitts board. According the them shoe money was exchanged and hurley is a fraud/cheater lmbooo

It’s really too bad. Guys like Capel who play by the rules just can’t catch a break

 

[80shusky]

Nice! Welcome aboard Akok Akok! A great pickup for the staff. Hopefully this will get two more dominoes to fall. Big dominoes.

 

[Paesano]

This kid is going to show Diallo how it is done!!!

 

[JamesinGR]

Doing my happy dance at Founders Brewery in GR. Hell........yessssssss

 

[Ha Who]

Actually looking forward to Memphis games!

 

[Report Card]

If you're like me watching Akok's highlight tapes all over again, I recommend making sure to visit this one



Something about taking it to Kofi that makes it move for me. Time to join the party big fella.

This recruiting class buzz is making my foods taste better.

A ton of talent in the house, that's for sure. 2020 class will only be a couplefew kids for us, so having some of our bigger targets in the building (springs, tabor, langford especially) is nice to see.

2021 is looking talented in this area. Hurley might load up that year.

 

[B1GEast]

OMG!!!!! Yeeeesss

 

[navery12]

I am now officially at the point where I don't care about players we missed in past years. UConn is back

 

[upstater]

He can always simply enroll as a half-time student, a couple of classes. The bigger concern moneywise might simply be room & board.

im still pissed about Tremont Waters. That kid had Uconn written all over him.

 

[Dove]

Dan Hurley is god.

Told ya.

 

[Matrim55]

Why is there a new thread? He verbaled almost 2 months ago...

 

[browndog319]

Just let out a pretty loud “YESSSSS!!!!” while shopping. Several strange looks from the Trader Joe’s patrons as well as my wife.

I was at the CVS drive thru window with my window down... the woman looked at me because I let out a gasp.
I told her it wasn’t her, it was me...

 

[UCDaveD]

On this date last year we were 2 days removed from an OT game vs Columbia, and a day prior to an OT game vs Monmouth...lol

 

[huskiemaniac]

What a difference a year makes!!

 

[BLUEDOGHOUSE]

When you go from Western Kentucky to LSU, we should all be glad he didn't come here.
