2026 Recruiting: Cole Cloer cuts his list to 8 schools

[Samoo]

That is one sweet stroke; completely natural, high release, nothing forced.

 

[Mr. French]

Amazing how everyone’s wish list is now Cloer, Mingo and Toure…

No lie. I had a dream 2 nights ago that we signed the 2026 #1 player out of NC. His national ranking at the time of the signing was #16. We shall see…..

did you have any dreams about powerball numbers?

Just that some people read about our latest targets and immediately fall in love. Until they’re not on him anymore, then suddenly the commentary will change.

It seems every offseason, these “wish lists” eerily line up closely with who we’re most linked to at that moment.

@auror you don’t fall in with that group, btw.

I think some of it is that these are the players I'm seeing, and generally I am agreeing that they look like good players we should be recruiting. Some of it too is that I trust the staff to target high talent players that they feel will be a good fit with the roster.

Understood. It wasn’t that serious. Just funny that once we offer a guy I see multiple posts like “THIS IS THE GUY I WANT” … well yeah cuz you just saw a highlight of him and saw that UConn just showed serious recent interest.

 

[aburks41]

He's practically begging to be a Husky lol. And there is no Duke to worry about here too. Let's lock him up

To be fair, nobody wants to be the guy that’s like “I don’t see it with this one.”

That kid does a fantastic job articulating why he likes each program, don’t think I’ve ever seen quotes that long for 8 schools.

eh, I think I posted it, and I'm sure others thought it, re: darius

 

[Mr. French]

Def get that. But there’s some guys that “suddenly” say “this is my wish list” and it’s the top 3 guys they’re recruiting. It doesn’t take a ton of critical evaluation.

 

[Mister P]

Dan and Kimani watching him again today.
A couple of plays of him playing above the rim and throwing down one handed slams.

 

[auror]

We haven't had a public official visit set yet, so listing UConn (Sept. TBD) is kind of interesting. I wonder why it's TBD.

Makes me think we want to be first, or as early as possible to lock him in before the world tour.

He has a publicist

 

[Hey Adrien!]

Nice local article about Cloer's mindset on baskebtall (spoiler alert, no shock Hurley loves this guy).

Kid can shoot the leather off the ball, but man are his feet slow. Think his future is an off ball 4.

Sounds like AK replacement

That's my take as well. Let him call himself a guard if he wants. He's a 4

They said that about Larry Bird. I like guys that can put the ball in the basket.

I’ll eat my own socks if he turns into Larry Legend.
