Big East OOC schedules

[Hey Adrien!]

Solid OOC for Marquette. Wisconsin is a top-10 team, UCLA could be a top-25 team away slate, and Rhode Island/Minnesota/Oklahoma State is a solid trio. Would like to catch a few of these.

That's a pretty stout OOC schedule. Good on them. What's the event happening at Mohegan Sun?

Poor Hoyas are gonna get wrecked.

Depaul's tournament is hilarious

 

[Hey Adrien!]

Depaul's tournament is hilarious

Yeah. I follow Grand Canyon because they are my in-law's local team, but when they are the 2nd best program in a tournament, it's a crappy tournament.

But with Bryce Drew as their new coach, three top-300 '20 recruits and three sophomores competing for starting roles, I'm curious about their future.

I feel like it’d make more sense for UCF to come to Hamden three days before this event...

1 through 4. The rest seem meh (and I'd put Sanogo above them).

Why, because of his ranking.

1 through 4. The rest seem meh (and I'd put Sanogo above them).

Don't know if you know much about Jyare Davis. Player of the yr in DE, avg about 22ppg Sr yr and was the best player on the same team as Villanova commit Njoku. He was in the top 50 before some injuries and missed AAU sessions. At 6'7 on the wing, who can create, to go along with Greg Gnatt 6'8 sophomore wing (top 60) who emerge late last season, Cooley has something. Not trying to compare but wasn't Donte Divencenso DE player of the yr.

1 through 4. The rest seem meh (and I'd put Sanogo above them).

Just highlights how within the Big East a few teams have cleaned up the '20 class.

Based on the current 247ings, the order would be

# 35 Garcia - Marquette
# 49 Jackson - UConn
# 54 Odom - Xavier
# 67 Andronikashvili - Creighton
# 76 Sanogo - UConn
# 95 Lewis - Marquette
# 99 Sibley - Georgetown
# 103 Wilcher - Xavier
# 118 Kalkbrenner - Creighton
# 120 Ighodaro - Marquette

So this only includes half of the Big East teams.

Overall, out of all the teams, Xavier's haul forecasts as the biggest potential pain in the butt for UConn over the next four years.

Odom is a small, but mighty bulldog who will be a pest on defense and bucket getter in the halfcourt. Wilcher, to me, looks like a matchup nightmare...strongly built shooter with a high IQ, has a bit of an old man YMCA game. Jones looks like a guy who might not be a factor early on, but when putting it all together as an upperclassman he will be one of those do-anything 6'6 210 strong wings, kinda like a Naji Marshall type of guy. All three are good recruits and likely four-year guys too.

Odom and kyky are both built and we be a problem if Steele plays them both at the same time
