Drummond to UCONN this season.

[bear]

If he buys into Calhoun's coaching, watch out. He's the got the tools to be outrageously good.

 

[Catsailor]

How sweet it is!!!!!

 

[UConn5]

I have to say, we had the discussion over at the other board about the rumor that Andre might pay his own way, etc. and I thought it was ludicrous. Not sure I've ever been happier to be wrong about college basketball.

I guess Jim Calhoun will be tweeting tomorrow that he is officially coming back?

Great article by Zags. Quinn talking about how this is what Andre always wanted. Boy...that's a 180 from Quinn!!!

[FfldCntyFan]

It is what Andre always wanted. It is the last thing that Quinn wanted but, .....

 

[UConn5]

Wow...just...wow.

 

[junglehusky]

Duhhh... WINNING!

 

[BigErnMcCracken]

Holy .

[BigErnMcCracken]

Aha, there is a censor.

 

[UConn5]

Yea i found that out too mccracken...

So uuhhhh about college football...who cares...when is it going to be november?

 

[emac]

Some of those quotes from Quinn just irk me.

 

[ctchamps]

Our move is good mojo

And his announcement helps the move. Not many people will overlook the timing of the two events. You deserve this excellent set of events.

 

[AtlantaHusky]

Just breathless. This is the excitement I want. Love the surprise moment rather than "waiting for the announcement". Elation is fun.

 

[UconnU]

Just testing the censor...

WTF I thought this was uncensored. Someone should have tested this B4 the move....

 

[SkyWalker2011]

Welcome to Storrs Andre!

 

[iam76]

booooooooooooooooooom

 

[Samoo]

My favorite part of the videos posted isn't the dunks or the dribbling, it's the jump hook. He looks comfortable taking it out to 8 feet or so and there isn't a player in college basketball that will be able to defend it.

 

[UConn Do It4]

Got a text from a friend at 10ish saying "HOLY DID YOU HEAR THE AMAZING NEWS?" and then left it at that, didn't say anything else and I couldn't check as I was out. I can honestly say this was the last thing I would have ever guessed.

First epic thread on the new boneyard and it's a doozy

 

[UConnFan]

WALK-IN???? Freaking amazing!

 

[coloradohusky]

amazing. This is a game change. I'm only tempered by the fact that its a one year deal.

 

[Danzz]

He announces on Twitter:
It's official I'm heading to the university of connecticut to be a husky this year! Do I hear #repeat #huskyfam @aoriakhi34

Infriggincredible!Makes you wonder what was really going on with Andre since it is only a few weeks since he announced he was transferring to Monson.Could it be that he wanted Quinn out of the picture? I guess the only thing that matters is we are getting the highest ranked recruit in Uconn history. Welcome Andre!
Confirmed by ESPN.

 

[zls44]

I decided to stick this to the top for now. Didn't merge all 100 threads because I thought it might get confusing.

 

[UConn5]

Good call zls.

I think this is just a situation where circumstances changed and the kid talked things over with his family and decided that coming to UConn this season makes the most sense. JC never fails to pull something out of a hat when it comes to recruiting.

 

[tcf15]

So I'm guessing as long as AD gives us what Okwandu did, we should be good

 

[DMW88]

Yea, I'm sure JC with all the NCAA issues is gonna say 'f' the rules...fans are fans and are gonna say what there gonna say...UCONN...WINNING!
