Nova won’t easily admit this but eventually they will they made a catastrophic mistake by not prioritizing him. This decision may end up swinging the big east against them. He has the best intangibles, basketball instincts I’ve seen since Napier. He always makes the best decision.

I hope you're right but I am sure they feel they did get who they wanted, or lat least wouldn't admit otherwise. But time will tell with all of these kids let's hope Rahsool is the one for us no matter of who they have. Love the kid we got and agree, he looks to be the next PG to put his stamp on Husky Nation.

Rahsool showing more of a handle here, some nice IQ.

We've had such great luck in these battles. Taliek Brown instead of Omar Cook. Marcus Williams instead of Mustafa Shakur. AJ Price instead of Josh Wright. Kemba Walker instead of Brandon Jennings. Shabazz Napier instead of Josh Selby, Brandon Knight and Cory Joseph. Ryan Boatright instead of Jabarie Hinds and Myles Mack.

This stuff is nice and tells you very little. That said, he reminds me a little of Taliek Brown in that he is strong with the basketball in the lane. He brings the ball to his body to protect it.

I've been excited -- really excited -- for the future of UConn basketball since the late season run when the then current roster suddenly gelled. But the physical development of our guys and the insane quality of our recruits just keeps getting better. We can see rhyme and reason to DH's recruiting strategy. For the first time in a long time, there's a plan and a purpose to it.

Yeah, I’m going to let him play maybe 4-5 games before I call him as good as Shabazz Napier. You know, just because I’m like that. I like to see guys play against college players. I’m old enough to remember when everyone got all excited ‘cause a guy kicked the $h;+ out of a chair.

Yeah. You were probably one of the guys who got excited because a recruit dunked against a chair. He was going to be the next Okafor or even better. LOL.

You're like a villain in Disney movies that hates dreams.

I'm seeing a kid who can pass, has good court vision, has a good handle, finishes strong and can score. I'll take a kid with all those skills anytime.

Please go back to whatever hole you crawled out of. Nobody said KW was the next Okafor and nobody is saying Diggins is the next Bazz. He's a very good player who everyone is and should be excited about. Time to step away from the keyboard for a little while.

He must be a miserable person. He always seems to take a negative view on everything with his smug comments. It's really strange. I wonder if he's like that in his real life. If so I just hope he doesn't have any children.

His BB IQ and confidence reminds me of KEA... Not comparing their body types.. Has the Eurostep down to get a shot off in the Lane against the Bigs..

I hesitate to make comparisons but he just looks the part of really good player and my guess a natural leader. He'll contribute immediately off the bench. 2021-2022 could be the deepest we've even been at the point.
