Message: [QUOTE="Ricker, post: 5011952, member: 1245"] Got to give us high off season marks 1. Held the coaching staff together 2. Got ALL our returning core players to return (Diarra, Ball, Stewart, Johnson, Ross, Singare) 3. Got a bruising Center to fill a need with a 2 yr window 4. Got an impact 5* shooter with size & winning pedigree 5. Got a seasoned ncaa experienced lead guard with a 2 yr window 6. Handled the Karaban NBA with such class that it has Alex back with love for the program & fire to run it back 7. Lost Roumoglou who I think had potential but handled that with equal class (poor kid was buried behind talent) 8. Kept freshman Nowell & Abraham committed in spite of quality additions to compete with for time 9. Reportedly had meeting with Diarra about his upcoming roll (which may have been prep to expect to still come off the bench) 10. Doing great prep work to have us involved with multiple 2025 5* & 4* players to keep the ball rolling 11. Being everyplace to capitalize on the publicity of repeat & three peat to build buzz about UConn in CBB 12. Evidently keeping us very competitive with NIL to have a deep squad that didn't seek competitive 'bids' 13. Supported all our NBA prospects to achieve their dreams Pretty hard to do better. A+ in my book [/QUOTE]
