2026 Recruiting: Cole Cloer visiting this weekend

Tell Hurley that

You’re the one underselling him

Then I guess Idk what your point was either or how it was a response to my post. I’d prefer a taller stretch 4 that can block shots as opposed to a 6’6 stretch 4 that can’t. Personal preference I guess.

You brought up that Cole Cloer should play the 2/3 and not the 4, and then brought up DeAndre Daniels, a guy who is the same size as Cloer and played the 4. That's all I was responding to

But they aren’t the same size… Cloer is 6’6 and Daniels is 6’9

Edit- or is he 6’8? I thought I read a post saying he was 6’6. If not my b.

Daniels was listed at 6'8 180 in HS, Cloer is 6'7 190

Cloer is also a lot more fluid than Daniels who’s game was stiff.

Yes size wise Cloer is the same size as a lot of stretch 4s we had. But he’s so much more fluid than everyone he’s being compared to. It would be a disservice to him to put him at the 4 and not take advantage of the competitive advantage he’d have as a 3.

On the flip side, imagine those 4's trying to stay in front of him. I think that's a pretty big mismatch in his favor too

No. A guy like Karaban would not have an issue defending on the perimeter. Nor would most 4s in college basketball today that are pretty mobile.

His advantage would be his size for his position.

I know this is not surprising, but I could not disagree with you more on this. I think you are 100% dead wrong on this. College 4's may be pretty mobile, but most including Karaban are still too slow to defend a guy with guard skills and the size of a 4 like Cloer

Fundamentals - he can play.

Ok, the pics are nice with UConn bling and all but does this mean he’s about to commit? Not visit other schools? Put their bling and jerseys on as he roams from school to school? Somebody help me out here.

Doesn’t mean anything. We get these pics after every visit.

Overall feeling with Cloer is pretty positive though.
