Yup. And I’m a huge husky fan, but if you ask me if I want an apt in Mansfield or Jamaica queens, I’m taking Jamaica queens 100 out of 100, so what’s your point?
No need based aid? Are you sure?
It didn't look like the same role in April. I'm sure he realized Slick Rick was going to bring in more guys. But he's stuck now. Time to do your job.
Lol at preferring to live in the woods over the greatest city in the world.
Explain how he’s been “a thorn in UConn’s side”. Not saying he won’t be. But he sure hasn’t yet at St. Johns
If its drug availability that you're worried about you can always take a ride to Willimantic.
To sum up the long-time season ticket holders I know, one of which is a co-worker of mine: while it's hard to displace away our opinions about his off-the-court choices, it's cool to see Pitino continue the winning tradition at Iona, but we'll see how long he lasts...how did Iona's boosters pull it off???
Ugh. Not me. I’ve lost 2 car stereos there. I’ve only parked overnight there like 4 times!
Don't knock it until you've actually tried it for more than an extended weekend.
I would not want to live in NYC or the 5 Boroughs today due to all the crime and violence from DTP policies. It's like Death Wish 3 or Ft Apache the Bronx in real life!
ya, you guys go cram into whatever city you want. Count me in on team live in the woods
Just out of curiosity…would you let your wife take the subway unaccompanied at 1am or even 11 pm?
On the surface, this looks like a huge mistake by Alleyne. DH would have ensured he had minutes in a familiar scheme on a Top 20 team. Plus, UConn is guaranteed national coverage.
Yeah but equating living in that part of Queens as being in the greatest city in the world is similar to living in a questionable section of Bridgeport and saying that you live in one if the wealthiest counties in the country. Technically it is a correct claim but the end result falls far short.
Jackson Heights and Flushing have character. Astoria, for all of its its shortcomings at least has some charm. There are quite a few places to live in the outer boroughs, Jamaica Queens is far down on the list, even if you limit it only to Queens.
Alleyne didn't just choose to leave UConn in a vacuum, he was already unhappy with his minutes all season and we were very openly going to recruit over him the same way St John's just did
We had 10 scholarships that year so I think we had fully intended to give Drummond a scholarship and legitimately just didn’t have them. Drummond has also talked about having to get a loan so I think it’s a bit different than NIL era. I didn’t really love it then either though.
As a 5th year guy, he was definitely trying to get more minutes to improve his prospects of playing pro. Have to think the assurances Pitino gave him didn’t come to fruition once they got other guys in
Traveling alone near midnight anywhere isn’t a great time. Crime in NYC is being exaggerated because they don’t report on the opposite. Lived here nearly 3 years and never had an incident on the subway.
