2021 Recruiting: El Ellis

[Ricker]

Thought it was Tyrese Hunter? Is there also a Tyrese Martin?

Hearing we're in good shape with Tyrese Martin's recruitment #sources

Tyrese Hunter

Thought it was Tyrese Hunter?

brain fart i meant the 2021 PG recruit Tyrese Hunter, not the 2020 SF already on the roster Tyrese Martin

This is a solid point^^ I understand all the Crystal Balls for Ellis, but would he really go out of his way to follow all of the UConn staff to not go there? I get following the head coach and maybe the main social media account for the team, but....

Is Ellis following anyone from Louisville?

I took a quick look and I don't believe he's following any Louisville coaches or players but I’m not as familiar with their staff so may have missed some

This thread is going to be fun this week. Angst level infinity.

for 2021?
ship seems to have sailed for sallis and brayon freeman.
hopefully we make diggins' top 6 but Nova has to be the favorite.
Blakes is apparently a combo guard not a pure point.
EDIT-that leaves Tyrese Hunter who i thought we just got involved with?

Chief mentioned Jordan Riley as a PG this week but he seems more like a combo guard. So really seems like just Hunter and Diggins after Ellis

VerbalCommits, TOS, and 247 all have him listed as a two-guard.

Yeah Riley definitely more of a 2/3 than a PG. Ellis, Diggins (Nova lean), and now Hunter seem to be the PG’s were in on.

 

[seeya27]

PG’s

Hurley unfollowed him on Instagram and Twitter . Next .

Didn’t want him anyway. Too ball dominant and has a hitch in his shot.

If this is true, it’s one of the most wild turn of events I can remember. We were in great shape for two weeks. Nothing set in stone yet, but this is very odd.

Not so surprising that Louisville wins at the eleventh hour. $$$

I was skeptical when he posted. Since he posted that message Ellis has unfollowed Hurley on Twitter and Instagram from the first time I looked until now

 

[husky99]

Strange trip this is... not sure what happened. Still have hope but something seemed to shift... talk is ville is jumping ahead.

Time will tell

 

[bendm]

He 100% meant Patterson. Whoever turned it into being any commitment in June gave him his out.

You need to adjust your priorities

Agreed . I like some of the other kids were after just as much as Ellis , but seemed like staff was putting in a lot of time here which is tough . Still plenty left out there and have full confidence in Danny to get the job done with the other targets .

I was really prepared for him to be the next Boat. Now I’ll pretend he’s Sam Cassel Jr & I never wanted him

you are being too generous age wise

Fortunately a lot of the time was virtual

Seems to me like we’re on to plan Bs for 2021. Point/Combo guard seems to be the biggest need right now. I wonder if they will once again try to sell top juniors on a reclass, with 2022 being deeper in talent in our region and need area.

Yeah, I just realized this guy sucks. We don’t need him.

Plan Bs across the board or just at PG and SF? how is a big SG to replace Bouk not the top priority, e.g. hawkins or longino?

Well I think we need 2 guards. One point/combo another wing type off guard.
