If the kid picks Duke he's nuts. K coming in that late wreaks of desparation and as a dad i'd tell him to screw off.

What do you mean? We (and everybody else) enter certain kids' recruitments late all the time. DeAndre Daniels, Tony Parker, etc.

I mean "we're" not Duke!!!

Lots on Duke, Kentucky and NC State. Really doesn't elaborate about UConn. I don't know whether to take anything away from that.

We are not a real team. We are here only as fodder for ESPN and message boards.

From this article, it looks like we are also rans. How seriously are we in recruiting this kid?

How many scholarships do you have available for the 2012 class?

It depends on how many guys leave to go to the NBA (right now, I'd assume Lamb and Drummond are gone), but I think UConn is expecting to get a scholarship or two back for the team's improved APR score.

I noticed that too. Sometimes it can appear that way based on who wrote the article. Getting a good pulse on our recruiting has been very difficult the past couple years. Some of the pick-ups seem to have come out of nowhere such as with DD and RB. There was very little indication that we were all that strong with either of them until shortly before they chose UConn. AD was a unique situation and his inner circle kept his recruiting close to the vest.

We're hearing about a lot of names lately who either UConn has interest in them or vise versa, but it seems hard to decipher which recruits the staff really likes as well as which recruits really like UConn.

Not that we want to make this thread into something more than it is, but for those who have been following UConn's recruiting...

Which recruits do you think the Staff is most interested in and in what order?

Which recruits do you think have a high interests in UConn?

I guess a 3rd question based on the above plus who the Huskies are competing with, which recruits do you think are likely to be had?
