2024 Recruiting: Brandon Huntley-Hatfield

[ec33]

I dont want a one year guy unless we're challenging for a title and next year I think we'll be too young and inexperienced to challenge. We need 2 years of eligibility left from any transfer.

While I agree on the youth and two years, next year's team (as it stands) isn't going to be all that younger than the last couple starting five-wise:

2023: Jr/F/Jr/So/Sr
2024: So/So/Gr/Fr/Gr
2025: Sr/Jr/So/So/Sr

Though admittedly far fewer minutes of gametime. Stewart or Ball breakout and it is quite possible that four guys leave off that roster (with Karaban collecting his college degree and moving on).

The biggest money schools are on him. Seems like we moved on.

A lot of people on here talk about us having a super competitive nil package to offer….

 

[AntG168]

He’s Isaiah Whaley lite.

We probably have good NIL packages. But I don’t think Hurley leads his recruiting with $$$ offers, it’s something that’s likely talked about once he gets a sense for how serious the kid is about winning. But I don’t think we’re competing with Duke and Kentucky level NIL unless it’s a Flagg level recruit.

From what I have heard, this is it. Some kids are asking about money first. Not our kind of player.

Good!

And the money being thrown around by some of these programs is headscratching.

 

[Huskyforlife]

Did they photoshop Keats into the picture?

 

[RipCity]

Hopefully this isn’t bad mojo but good. Didnt want him. He seemed average on both ends and that’s not what UConn should be settling for at this point.

It’s soooooo early.

I’m feeling good.

In all likelihood, our guys haven't even entered

I don't want any players from losing programs. Winning is contagious. So is losing.

I’m not sure if Rutgers was a winning program and we did ok with Cam!

If it’s Cliff I wouldn’t mind. Blocks everything now and boards on both ends. If he cut out the jump hooks and crap shots that come with being on a talentless offense he’d be like a jumbo Whaley.

Agreed. I'd love to see what we can do with his passing too

 

[xclamations]

Let's see if he's the real mccoy

 

[TheChamps990411]

He’s like a prototypical power forward. I’m confused about the fit, he’s more of a 2021 UConn type player. I don’t think Alex is leaving. Where would we play him?

Yeah, i dont really see the fit either unless he plays the 5 in which case its intriguing. A 5 who can shoot in Hurleys offense? How the heck do defend that offense?!!!
