Anyone have video of the putback from yesterday?

Floyd is a winning player. Does so many little things that help the team but he's really talented too

 

[UConnStats]

His passing/vision have been much better than I expected them to be.

Was in the middle of typing this when you posted. At least 4 or 5 assists this game.

If he can pass and shoot like this at the next level, he'll be much more than roleplayer if he keeps improving.

Shooting off the dribble and improving his handle are the next big steps for him. Not a shot creator yet, more of a system guy.

Oweh is feeling himself a little too much after that run.

 

[husky429]

Good eye for talent from our coaches identifying Lively before he blew up. Looks like an NBA player to me.

Nick Smith plays like Bouk

 

[CardiacAndre7]

Kid Nick Smith has been blowing by Corey a lot though

If he could shoot he’d be awesome.

He’s league bound though

No disagreement here. But Floyd seems sorta disinterested on that end

No one this tournament has stopped him 1v1 and AAU teams don't really have a team defense concept to stop a dominant scorer like colleges do. He's also played 14 games in the last 10 days. He's known as a bought-in defender and definitely was at Roselle. I wouldn't read into it too much

He had a couple nice defensive possessions where he held up, a couple times he just got straight beat, and then a couple times it seemed like he stayed with him and then would either lose focus or expect something to happen and then have to contest hard and foul. It's like he's getting distracted by his own brain.

I wasn’t able to watch much of the tournament besides this game and I understand he’s a very good defender in general. Maybe it was the defensive scheme Final ran because on the screens the switches were very lazy and the paint was often open. But the exhaustion is definitely a factor as well.

First time in a game situation seeing the "lift" on dunks/putbacks that you like to see. He'll probably gain an inch or two before stepping on campus.

I can now see why some Yarders are saying he could be a SF in certain matchups. Until now.. Didn't see it initially.Will be a mismatch nightmare for opposing teams at the CG/SG/SF positions because of his strength and versatility.

All good.. Been big on Corey since the day he committed..

Predicting he'll have a bigger impact while at UConn than a lotta folks thought.

Kid has onions.

 

[Hey Adrien!]

Has there been any chatter about Oweh?
I seem to recall we were on his list or he was on ours.

 

[Huskybass]

The more I watch Floyd the more I appreciate all the things he does well. His passing ability is very good. He plays completely relaxed and fearless. Cant wait to watch him in a UConn uniform.

 

[I Bleed Blue]

Tons of good exposure for CFJ at Peach Jam with Team Final. Would think he will get a decent rankings bump across the board next round. He should be consensus Top 100 guy and perhaps Top 75 in some rankings.

We were connected a bit with him in the winter but haven't seen anything recent. It'll be interesting to watch over the next few weeks because his recruitment should blow up. I always got the feeling he'd end up at Georgetown before this, now I'm not sure where he ends up

I think Seton Hall has been after him as well. Not sure how hard or where that stands, but could be cool to get him in the conference

 

[rollskies]

I would love for CFJ to come this fall

If this was true, wouldn't he already be here? Not doubting Dauster, but I don't see why he'd be playing AAU when the other freshmen are already on campus.

 

[tcf15]

Dauster was there all week so I'm guessing that's legit and not just speculation.

Maybe wanted to finish out the AAU circuit before coming to campus? I have no idea just spitballing here

 

[Com'rGordon]

I didnt even know we had a schollie open this year

 

[Psolo12]

Possibly meant coming after the fall is over like an Akok freshman spring redshirt situation.

He was balling against future lottery picks. I think he’s ready for the jump if he wants

If he was enrolling for the 2nd semester, he wouldn't be able to do it until December, which is definitely not the fall.

We technically have 3 open for the fall still
