Cuse fans have convinced themselves that Jackson is coming here because we are about to hire his coach. Lol.

I can assure that's not true. Well he is coming here. But that won't be the reason.

Are we hiring a coach? We have a very full staff, no?

With James and Andre, that would be some crazy freaky athleticism on one team.

Earl Kelly use to say that Pearl was bad mouthing him in Jersey - and posters been saying Cuse fans were bad mouthing Chief recently. Some things never change.

Are we still in really good shape with him? I've assumed we're still the front-runner, but I didn't know if it was close to a done deal.
 
woah, they must have the most plugged-in of insiders if they're breaking coaching changes on our staff

Pearl bad mouthed and talked trash a lot but off court he was a very earthbound guy - especially considering where he came from during his youth/HS years
 
The reported lack of any discernible ability to shoot the basketball is a concern but I find myself wanting this kid if for no other reason than the collective teeth gnashing that will take place on the frozen tundra.

If we hire a coach to land a top high school recruit, you better believe it's a 5*. Hurley ain't no fool.

And I am confident in saying that Cuse is one program that should be basking in the sunlight yet is constantly finding ways to shut those blackout shades

Andre will be a monster, defensively. A monster. As has been mentioned, we’d be talking about the best pure athlete we’ve had since Sticks, Rudy, etc.

There’s a reason the staff has been steadfast in their pursuit of him. He’s exactly the kind of guy to activate the transition game that Dan wants.

If he is I want to kiss him because it was EK who was responsible for getting rid of Dom Perno and ushered in JC - I always say, with tongue in cheek, that EK is my favorite Husky for that reason alone

Yea, but Earl, Of Storrs, could ball.

Wasn’t he Earl Kelley? Am I wrong there was an extra E?

Loved his game and the first guy who truly shoved it up the Oranges butt and came here instead.

You are correct. And to this day he’s one of the most talented players to EVER lace em up at UConn (averaged 47 his senior year). He was just a tad distracted during his days at Storrs unfortunately. Something I regrettably have direct knowledge of.

What happens in Storrs, stays in Storrs, my friend.

Yes, unlike some people on this board who make up stories about players and then tell them on this board, I have many real stories that I would never tell. I don't constantly crave attention nor is it anyone's business.

He’s gotten under your skin because he does exactly what you would never think of doing. And several posters agree with you.

When we don’t like someone we try to marginalize them by embarrassing them, or criticizing them or ganging up on them. You have support in what you’re doing but the numbers of chief’s supporters might be even with the detractors and possibly outnumber them.

If it makes you feel good than continue. Or if you find that not speaking makes you believe you should have done something and didn’t then continue.

As a person who isn’t invested in this issue one way or the other I will point out that I’m not sure you’re accomplishing anything. If anything you are inadvertently encouraging the situation, not reducing it. And ironically inadvertently bringing attention to yourself.

I'm just having fun with it. I don't lose any sleep over what the guy says if that's what you're saying.

He was Earl Kelly at Wilbur Cross and then Earl Kelley at UConn... still not sure why.
