CTInsider article: Newtons decision coming soon

UConn men's basketball already eying a national championship repeat: 'The mix for six' Newton is deciding in the next 2 days, per himself. Adama in the next couple weeks. Roumoglou, Hasson, Diarra uncertain.

“Word around the program is power forward Samson Johnson, who earned a starting spot heading into this past season but missed significant time with injury as Alex Karaban thrived, intends to return. Same goes for guard Nahiem Alleyne.”

“Speculation,” sure. But it’s not like he’s just pulling that out of a hat, this is coming from program sources.

Nahiem has a reason to come back besides basketball.

Today is Nika’s birthday

If Newton and Alleyne return, there is room and PT for Timberlake? You then have Castle plus all of them?

Thing that’s nice about this staff is that Newton or no Newton, I don’t think this staff does a lot of overpromising. Everything’s earned, and an opportunity to be a part od something special

It's just too hard to say at this point, IMO. It's a brain exercise for sure. If Newton and Alleyne are to return, I am sure Hurley and staff have ideas of Newton and Castle being on the court at the same time a la Boatright and Bazz or Kemba and Bazz.

Timberlake would probably steal minutes from some of the freshman but that is not a bad problem to have. Castle is probably the only one who will be truly ready from day 1. Easing the other 4 guys into things and building up that depth will be a good thing
 
Castle is too redundant with Newton and Jackson. We need a spacer for those 2 and Don down low. Alleyne is a very good connective piece that can shoot(in theory), and 20x the defender Timberlake is. I’ll accept Timberlake starting over Alleyne, but Castle makes way more sense coming off the bench.

Of course I know what this means, but why doesn't somebody explain it to everyone else.

AJ is my favorite player, but Tristen is the guy I’d most like to hang out with. Similar to RJ, he always has a smile on his face. It’s an endearing quality and one that I greatly admire. Whether he stays or leaves, I’ll always remember him for that. Stay happy Tristen. If you do, you’ll always be successful in life.
