CG Bones Hyland In Home Visit 5/1

[NJHoops]

Hurley’s not completely opposed to that kind of shot and related swagger...

[CardiacAndre7]

Get this kid.

 

[ZenConn]

That's Bazz-esque range!

 

[CL82]

That's Bazz-esque range!

But not quite Jalen-esque.

Fwiw--jalen suggs is a consensus top 10 pg. And also a 4* football qb recruit. Insane athlete. No shame being a spot behind him!

 

[UconnU]

Have you watched any tape on Hyland? There’s a lot out there. One thing that really stuck out to me in his passing ability. I can’t reiterate this enough the kid is an elite passer.

 

[SeattleHoop]

Really want this kid at UConn. Is anyone else going after him hard? I’m hoping we are the leader here

 

[SeattleHoop]

"gets where he wants all over the court" is a skill UConn has been sorely lacking from its guards and wings.

Not enough players who can move their defender to where the offense wants the defender moved.

If a player can't move a defender with the dribble it decreases the defense's need to switch and rotate and allows defenses to lock down offensive flow.

Bouknight and Gaffney are gonna fix this issue also. Vital Polley Wilson and B Adams cannot break down their defenders very well and that has killed us

The picture was removed. Not sure why, but y'all might want to not make dumb ass comments about a picture posted by a recruit UConn may want to sign.

(Not intended for hawk husky)

That guy Trey Phipps is committed to Tulsa and I love his game. Remember this post for when we inevitably lose @Tulsa in like 2023 and he goes 6 for 10 from long distance.

Tyrell Suggs cousin. Kid has already led his basketball team to 3 state championships and his football team to another. Kid is a rare breed just a natural born leader and athlete he may actually play both sports in college. I think he ultimately goes pro in basketball though.

If he has half a brain he'll play basketball exclusively. Longer career, more money, better chance of making it if he's a QB--not a freak enough athlete to be a corner or RB

I hope we land him. I’d prefer him over RJ because we need able bodies this year. We still need a big either way imo.

 

[Hey Adrien!]

Between the two, I gotta go with RJ.

Yes, I know Cole can't play next season, but between Vital, AG, Gaffney, Bouknight and Adams, there's not much time for Bones next season anyways.

Thinking ahead to 2020, both Vital and likely Gilbert are gone and you bring in a guy like Cole who averaged 21.5/4.1/6.4 at Howard and BOOM you get a guy for two years who is guaranteed to play big backcourt minutes.

You don't get that guarantee from Bones.

If the last 3 years have taught us anything it should be that we can't have too many ball handlers. Im sure there would be minutes for him

Nah'Shon is up to #60 in 247 updated rankings. Pretty significant.

 

[Com'rGordon]

Yeah I'm on board with taking him, RJ, and Demarr and figuring out the scholarship and post situations later lol

 

[UconnU]

Well deserved! He has, arguably, looked like the best player on the UA circuit this far. WeR1 was not supposed to be tied for first place right now.

 

[UConNick]

Nah'Shon is up to #60 in 247 updated rankings. Pretty significant.

And in the same rankings, Akok is up to 21, Bouknight up to 51, and Gaffney up to 122 (I think they had him in the 140-150s before).

Sign him up..

 

[kansashusky]

Sign him up..

I have no idea what Hurley is thinking. Not sure if he is waiting on RJ or if it is the first to say yes between Langford, Hyland or RJ.

The thing is they could all help us for different reasons. I would be happy with any one of them.

Agree. Whoever we end up with, I will be happy.
