Yes you’re right our ballhandling was amazing better than most years at UConn - Esp when Cole sat for 30 secs and our half court offense was a Picasso most of the season.

Denham Brown played guard too but I would consider him a 3 all day. I guess it’s semantics and we are in position less basketball. But the Boneyard is often all about personal attacks.

You wouldn't have to mischaracterize what I'd said if you weren't so obviously wrong.

Huh? We were good in 2005 without a backup point guard. What in the world does that have to do with what I actually said?

You said our guard depth was worse in 05. I pointed out we still managed to have a better season since the poster u replied to the as using guard depth as a justification for last season

Why do you say that? He has that option doesn't he?

He does but there's really 2 options for why he left, playing time or some other issue with Hurley. I don't think it's playing time, but even if it was more isn't available now. And hard to say any other issue has been resolved either

Hypothetically his issue can be nothing more than he took umbrage that Hurley chose to recruit over Jalen and Sool. He might have been upset with that and chose to express his loyalty to his friendship with a fellow player over the coach and the program by entering the portal. Nothing wrong with that sentiment. Not everything aligns with how fans want them to align. In this scenario I can see Hurley possibly reconsidering if CFJ reconsiders. But as you indicate playing time might be different if CFJ never declared.

two of the oddest thoughts that i have read today were the possibilities of either jmoney of corey returning.

Cole Beasley quit football during his rookie training camp, came back a week later, and has gone on to play 10 NFL seasons.

The comment was "once you quit your job, your not going back". I provided a relevant sports example.

We also know there are players who return after entering the portal. It happens. No I don't have the name of a collage player to reference of the top of my head.

Actually, the Beasley example came to mind to @huskyfan224 's "he isn't committed" comment. Re-committing to the team you left can happen. That's all

Sure it can happen, but these aren’t pro athletes and this is a much smaller group. Chemistry is huge and he isn’t quitting the sport, he plans to go somewhere else and be the opposition.

Seeing someone not buy into the program and leaving while others are bought in wouldn’t bode well for a return. Players wouldn’t forget about it

Pretty sure the whole situation with Dawson Garcia this year would be similar. He had a legit reason to be away, not because he didn’t wanna play, but it was a family matter. UNC players acted like they didn’t know who he was

People tell us they're leaving all the time. If they're good, we see if there isn't something we can do to get them to change their mind. People in business want to make money. People in basketball want to win games. Not everything is taken personally, even if it is on messenger boards.

Funny you said that - total anecdotal story - I worked with a guy that quit twice to go to the same company, both times.

First time, he was giving notice, and they matched the salary. So he stayed.

Second time, he gives notice, formally accepts new job, company decides not to play ball this time thinking he's going to the same company again, must be for real this time. 2 weeks later, THE DAY OF HIS GOING AWAY PARTY AND LAST DAY AT COMPANY, says he is reconsidering. It was too late to cancel the going away party, so it was a welcome back party... One of the stranger events of my career.

When the covid firing started, he was predictably the very first casualty. I think he tried going back to the other company for round 3 but shockingly didn't get a call back. No need to feel bad for him, he landed on his feet in a better situation (always seems to work out that way for some of us)
