This is my top 3 as well. I wonder if we'd take County also as he seems to love us....and also wonder if County would still be interested if we got Mingo.

I’m curious why people think ball is more likely to go pro than Demary wasn’t he in the combine?

I'm not sure I've seen a mock draft with him in it. It's Uconn fan projection. I think there is a very low chance he enters the draft this year, call it less than 10%.

Demary entered the draft but was not invited to the NBA Draft Combine. Think he pulled out of the draft after not being invited.

6’3 with below average handles and passing ability for a SG... I think the most likely to leave early for the draft are 1) Mullins and 2) Demary

Mullins would seem to be the most likely to "certain" to leave after the season unless Ball has already told Dan Hurley to plan on his leaving. But Dan Hurley seems to believe he has the opening (and it isn't Demary because that would mean recruiting a second PG-ish guy as Mingo fits the "Smith spot").

Guess with Solo is he tests the process, gets his feedback, comes back for a week 2027 draft.

I think there’s a higher than 10% chance Solo enters the draft. I’m anxious to see how his game evolves as many players make their biggest jumps from sophomore to junior year.

Take a look at some of the mocks and ask yourself, simply based on NBA skillset/size, who you'd take him over. Take a kid like Pettiford for instance, nice shooter with a strong on ball game and he's getting mocked late first. There would have to be a compelling reason for him to leave this year with a week draft coming a year after, and not sure late first possibility is it. Isiah Evans shot 41% last year and is 3 inches taller, and he's going late first in many mocks.

Kinda hard to follow what you’re trying to say but we are recruiting Mingo and County and both can play PG.

If I’m a basketball guy, I’m looking at Purdue and Louisville but those other schools can kick rocks.

Obviously none stand out like UConn.
Alabama is on a good run right now to, to be completely fair.

Probably have to include Ross in there somewhere, but that is definitely the idea. That Fab 5 class will have their chance at big minutes next year. This year really does have to play out to know what we have for next year - this is that annual fan exercise where everyone build ups ideal expectations and then the world when they don't play out. My guess, not every one of these kids is going to live up to the loft.

Fab 5 class?
 
There is also a sense around town that the YOUNGER Ross may play a real role in future years - as he is better than initially expected. May come to nothing given the current climate of CBB/what new guys we land, but worth noting

You keep saying you don't claim to have insider information and then post like this. You're either lying about that or making things up here, because no one has publicly said a thing about Ross #2 that indicates this.

I’d like to take Landrew and if that pushes Ross out of the rotation then it is what it is. I pledged never to complain about recruiting over returning players after last season.

I think Ross is going to be a pleasant surprise here this year.
 
The press is on.

Petition to change his name to LeAndrew Colben?

It just seems to be easier for me.
