No disrespect or attack @UcannUconn, I do see him as the star of the show but I see Hurley as the face of the program.

Yes and to start the play Vital with the steal / recovery to not go out with the ball and that pass!
That has to possibly the assist of the season!

Here's a short article from Rivals regarding Bouk. It appears he is impressing everyone . . . even NBA scouts.

Bouk has definitely had a big nba draft stock bounce but unless he knows he'll be a first round pick for certain no reason to leave this year. That said if he somehow drags us to an AAC title and a bid then who knows.

With a big year next year he's a 1st rounder I assume so I'll enjoy his game at UConn while I still can....after seeing what happened to Akok I support any kid going pro as soon as they feel the time is right.
