Husky99 says UConn has Middleton signed sealed delivered

as of sunday but things could have changed as of yesterday.....

Heard yesterday uconn still seriously in the running. And obviously these new offers are not great news

Interesting article.
What schools are recruiting you hardest- Vandy, Cinci, Tennessee, Tennessee state, indiana

Where would you like to visit - UConn, Cincinnati, LSU, Tennessee, Pittsburgh, NC State

 

[McLovin]

Please don’t let him visit L$U

I can’t stop thinking of the Coen brothers and Austin Carr now.

I can't stop thinking of Uri Cohen-Mintz

 

[beachin]

Derrick Jones as a comp?

 

[husky99]

I don't think this is an accurate representation of @husky99's comments. Before the post you quoted, he said that he heard on Monday that UConn is in good shape. So, in other words, he heard we got him, and then later he heard we might get him.

Ha yup

 

[ctchamps]

Ha yup

From now on I’m going to take any pronouncements with two grains of salt.

Seriously in the running is not signed sealed and delivered.

 

[uconngb]

Recruiting is very fluid so you have to drink a lot of salt water....don't you people know anything?

 

[mauconnfan]

Key is not a lot of winks. Just good guys saying what they're hearing and more often than not it's accurate. But the kids on the other end aren't consistent all that often.

thats what i was pointing out

 

[navery12]

thats what i was pointing out

And yet you just posted this

freaking out over losing a top 50 guy that we thought was a lock is par for the course.

 

[bendm]

And yet you just posted this

so are we not allowed to be disappointed? are we passionate fans or robots? i havent blamed anyone or pointed any fingers.

Husky99 says UConn has Middleton signed sealed delivered

I don't think anyone has been getting good information on recruiting for a long time now and Middleton has kept it all as close to the vest as possible.

You can be disappointed, even if I think it's a bit crazy to talk yourself into a dream scenario and then claim disappointment when it doesn't happen.

But that's besides the point. All I'm pointing out is that you're in this thread claiming recruiting is fluid and things change, while in the Middleton thread claiming he was a lock for UConn. Can't have it both ways

odd for you to take issue with any of it but i think youre either 1) lying or 2) emotionless if youre claiming not to be a bit disappointed at the prospect and perhaps inevitability of missing out on middleton given what an insider said on sunday.

furthermore, i wasnt expressing contrary claims in the two threads. i informed a guy that still believed scotty was a lock that the same insider had since updated what he initially heard. while i was "guilty" of getting my hopes up and subsequently becoming disappointed by the news that scotty was no longer a lock, i most certainly can have it both ways. life is a rollercoaster of emotions.

Agree. I hope you understood my comment to @husky99 was meant as a joke.

How’s the granddaughter?

No doubt I saw the fleudy sarcasm all over it lol.

She’s precious thanks for asking. Getting bigger just turned a month still a couple weeks from her date but catching up fast and healthy. Again thanks

Got it, so you did view Middleton as a lock. That's what I'm taking issue with. Someone saying they heard UConn doesn't make it a lock. You've followed recruiting long enough to know better

Would I be disappointed if he chooses elsewhere, sure. But we're going after about a dozen top 50-75 kids so that would last all of 10 seconds.

 

[AdamaNation]

So are you thinking that we are out of the Middleton sweepstakes then? We shouldn't be losing recruiting battles against Seton Hall...

Pretty solid backup plan

 

[CONN78SEJ]

Like what i saw in his game..powerful, athletic, decent shot...a little Lyman Depriest ish :}

Get him. Very difficult to defend kids like that unless you hack him at the rim.
