[Fatroony5]

Need boots on the ground at Capital Grille. You know the drill, if he orders a steak & the lobster mac, it’s a done deal!

 

[navery12]

Lock up Landrew this weekend and then we wait out Mingo as long as he wants to take

 

[husky429]

Need the commit. I love his game. Like Stewart in hs but better

 

[Drame]

Loves this guys game. We need dogs and bully ball specialists.

 

[Stasher599]

Hearing we are in good shape here. Biggest competition is Louisville who has offered almost half of the top 60 players in the class.

 

[Huskyforlife]

Lock him down, prize of the class imo.

 

[NewBlood]

Landrew then Mingo

1-3 STACKED for 2026, big man transfer to play with Reibe

 

[husky429]

Lock him down, prize of the class imo.

I love the late risers. He was ranked 90 a year ago and is up to 25-ish... They tend to be better than their ranking because they've got to get past kids getting by based on reputation.

 

[80shusky]

Big visit here. I'm locked in on this guy being a Husky.

This is not me worrying about recruiting over a returning player with Landrew but I’d love for Ross to put on at least ~5 lbs over the next 12 months so he has the versatility to play as a small ball 4 next season. At 6’7 210 he’d only be 5 lbs less than what Stew is listed at.

Demary / County
Ball / Furphy
Mingo / Landrew
Stew / Ross
Reibe / Keita

 

[Umami Zen]

Physicality is not a problem for Landrew. Almost seeks it out. Wide Receiver background-Soft hands. Play style would be an excellent fit in the BE. Anyone stepping in front of him for a charge is crazy. LOL

Stewart is listed at 225now

Stewart is listed at 225now

Wow 15 lbs since last year??? Hopefully Ross can add more than 5 lbs then. But Point is stew was listed at 210 last year when he was also the backup 4 which is the same role I’m hoping for Ross next year if we get Landrew

*****
All must bow to the will of Landrew!

 

[HailUConn]

absolutely love him and get the Jeff Adrian vibe, a skilled bruiser and dawg!

 

[StllH8L8ner]

This song always brings me chills for whatever reason. I remember a trailer for He Got Game where it starts out playing the song with Ray sprinting down (I think) the boardwalk. I can’t find that particular trailer online anywhere though.

 

[husky429]

If coach is 6'2, Landrew is definitely 6'6 or 6'7.

I can confirm that steak and the lobster mac were ordered, but, multiple other sides were also ordered. Maybe this a sign that Dylan Mingo will sign soon too!

 

[BGesus4]

What do you feed a kid to make them look like that at 18???

This is certainly encouraging. Sunny weather all day in Storrs!

Has a few inches on JA but see the similarities. Quicker feet and better hands/handle than JA but not afraid to bang on the boards and get physical. Can see why the staff is targeting him.

 

[HailUConn]

Has a few inches on JA

What? Get the facts and come back to me…

Facts are in your favor. My bad. Had in my mind that he was 6'5'' ish w/o sneakers.. I'll see myself out

 

[Kembacity]

Kid looks perfect in our jerseys, I’ve seen all I need to see let’s lock him up

It’s all good. JA is one of my favorite Husky and a warrior.

Jeff Adrien was 6'5.25 without shoes. I think Landrew is at least that tall, probably 6'6 without shoes but their games aren't similar. Adrien was a low post scorer/enforcer, this kid does things off the bounce and shoots it pretty well from three.
