I don't get this narrative. Did Tyus Battle not say glowing things about Michigan after his commitment? Was antonio blakeney critical of Louisville in his press after his commitment?
Going by these kid's stock answers is just as foolish as analyzing their Instagram.
But going back to what @CallMeBruce was saying - ZB was a near UConn lock for many months before he finally decided to pull the trigger - it wasn't something that just came out of nowhere. Not a comparable scenario to Tyus Battle, who surprised everyone by originally spurning Syracuse for Michigan, or Blakeney, who's decommit from Louisville has been widely attributed to Nike vs. adidas.

I agree. The whole premise was hard to believe but the scrubbing of everything UConn was highly unusual.

Get off your high horse. I don't obsess over "a 16 year old kid's social media." I obsess over UConn basketball. Get it right.

If you want to be specific, it's more like whispering "there's a fire" in a movie theater and then when people are panicking, and the fire department comes, and people are trampling each other, then going "hey, guys, I was never that worked up about it, calm down."

Clearly Zach reads the Boneyard...


Hey Zach, Husky nation is happy to have you... don't listen to any morons here who say otherwise!
No one said he they weren't happy he committed. Don't make this into something it's not.

More like: "Hey, I might smell a little smoke?? Anyone else smell something?"
The vast majority did't smell anything.

Good god... I'm saying it preemptively.

I'm not 'making this into something it's not'.

Maybe his account was hacked by a fan of another program or a friend who is busting his butt ?

True! He will have pressures. 5 brothers, Mom, maybe even Dad shows up. It is hard to be successful and not think about the pain he left behind. And those people may be looking for too much. He will also need his guardian family's continued support.

Cousin David, worded so well!
