Was told Juiston is likely a no go for UConn

As in we don't want him or he doesn't want us

As in it is highly unlikely he will choose to come to UConn.

Are there any bricks like Karnowski on Gonzaga out there?

Not quite like that but there's some decent talent in the big grad transfer market like Kanter from Green Bay and Rooks from Cal

I've added a tab on this spreadsheet for incoming freshmen who've been granted release from the LOI. This is harder to find names for but if anyone knows of players missing, add them and I'll update as I can.

Mark Alstork

His usage was way too high this year, but he has good size and strength for a 2 and can shoot. With a more reasonable role he could be a good player even adjusting for him playing in the Horizon.

Wonder if we'll look into Khris Lane. 6'6" 245lb well-built wing out of Longwood. Grad transfer. Averaged 17 and 7 on .537/.337/.688 splits. Scheduled visits to Pitt and URI already. Very limited film available on him but seems like a great finisher and a less than great defender. More of a slasher than a shooter, pretty good in the post ups I saw, used his body well to create space and angles

Interesting transfers I didn't know about such as Lee to California - finally realized he wasn't getting his due at one and done. Simon and Clark to the Johnnies. Giddens from Ohio State (would have loved him on our roster) to Bama and of course the most shocking one of all, Iowa State is getting Kasongo'd.

Probably makes Mizzou look that much better to Harris

 

[RipCity]

If freakin Mizzou ends up with Porter, Knox, and Tilmon before we get significant good news then I may go insane.

My tell will be me starting to comment like Chap used to.

So if Mark Smith goes to MSU Tilmon goes to Mizzou?

Did anyone mention Deng Riak transferring from ECU? Looked like a decent piece for them. Already redshirted once though so he'd give up a year of eligibility to get out of there now.

Seems clear anyone who wants to transfer after redshirting should take the Cam Johnson approach and graduate in 3 years, then get 2 immediate years elsewhere. You show any kind of game with 4th and 5th years immediate, you're going to get high major offers.

Seems like the younger Lawson will be giving up a year of eligibility to transfer as well

Kid played against my kid in HS pretty nice player. Would be nice for that 4th 5th role but looks like he wants a bigger role so for him he will nee to drop a level or 2 in D1 ball.
