2025 Recruiting: Cooper Flagg

[superjohn]

I was thinking that was halftime like a bonehead, lol. I was wondering why the game felt so long haha.

I was confused when you said Cooper had 18 points at halftime because 18 is what he finished with. I only caught the last minute of the game on ESPNU.

Ngongba and Abraham are on ESPNU in the title game right now.

So news coming in 20 minutes?

 

[husky99]

I heard about 2 weeks ago the staff was seriously doubling down on flagg with a full press by the staff.

Looks like the “ Carpenter “ is at the lumber yard looking to pick up some wood..

 

[mauconnfan]

He has 18/12/7 at HALFTIME. Only 8/24 from the field though. Kid is going to take 50 shots in a game at this pace, lol.

Boozer not looking as good as he normally does.. his brother is playing better. 4 fouls and only 5/7/1 at halftime.

24 shots 1st half yikes!!!!

 

[TheHorde]

You miss 100% of the shots you don’t take. Imagine if a year from now UConn has made another deep tournament run and had two players drafted in the lottery. Then imagine further if Dook and Kentucky can’t get past the first weekend of the tournament again.

Copper is repping UConn Unis!

Is this a sign that Hurley and Co. might cracked the door open? It remains to be seen but I like how Danny keeps the champ tides.

Looks like photoshopped

I can't tell you how excited I'd be to get Cooper Flag. Crazy that he's only 16. He already plays like a pro.

I feel like you have to know this, but just in case you don't that is very clearly photoshopped

If anyone got fooled by that…yeesh.

 

[husky99]

Heard the staff is putting alot of time before and after Europe to watch flag as much as possible

Noted. I’m making an appointment with my ophthalmologist.

 

[HailUConn]

Cannot say enough about our head coach. We need to hold on to him no matter what and no matter how!

I like your optimism, so maybe an optometrist the following week.

From a Kentucky beat writer:

Between Dan Hurley, Luke & Kimani, we have a pretty “cool & relatable” coaching staff. Combined with their on court success, along with Tom Moore as a silent assassin, wouldn’t trade this crew for any in the nation

 

[runner11]

USC, Arkansas, Gonzaga, Oklahoma State, Memphis. Those are the past 5 schools to last the #1 overall recruit. Why not us? When you are coming off a 'ship, no recruit is impossible.

Duke did improve down the stretch which bodes well for Scheyer but he is still unproven. If they fail to meet expectations, if DC becomes a national story, if x, y or z happen, yada yada. It's good to be in the mix.

This is the worst photoshopping in the history of Photoshop.

You think?

The logo being above his backpack's shoulder straps make it appear a bit suspicious

Ill take his twin brother Ace as a package deal if it gets Cooper here. Cooper is reallly impressive, but ace knows how to play too.They said got West Virginia offer, but he’ll get more soon.

I agree. Cooper gets all the headlines, rightfully so. Ace could be a nice roll player for a good team too. My buddy in Maine says Ace can be solid as a DI player. They are still 16. Plus there is their redhead teammate (who's name escapes me) , who will be a DI guy too. A lil uptick in Maie basketball this past year.

It's clearly meant to be a joke...

 

[HailUConn]

C’mon guy.

‘cuse me, my eyes are a bit dreamy when it’s Cooper pic.
