Flagg to Duke. Official

Episode 2 Whatever GIF
Been a long time since a meme captured my reaction so perfectly.
 
You get the feeling his parents were more UConn than he was honestly. His dad talked about how close it was but you read coopers quotes about how Scheyers practices and demanding accountability won him over and it’s like come on.
Very few can match a Hurley practice and what he demands of kids.
Still can’t believe this kid was a Duke fan in Maine of all places. Thanks gramps.

I agree with you since most of the time he was kind of ambivalent about UConn. The quote below contradicted his previous statements about UConn.

“When I was a sophomore here at Windsor High, (UConn) was where I wanted to go, really where I dreamed of going,” Betsey said. “But really going through the process and realizing what you need and what you want, that’s really what it came down to and that’s where Cincinnati really separated themselves.”

Reading in between the lines that sounds like a kid who is recognizing his "dream" school wasn't really his "dream" school once he matured and realized what he was looking for in a school/program.
 
Can’t refute the points I made is all I see. Thanks for playing!

Did I say you were wrong about anything you said? No. Did you make some valid points? Yes. Does that mean asking and answering your own question numerous times in the same post isn’t funny? No. Is it a weird way to converse? Yes. What’s the maximum number of times one can ask and answer their own questions in the same post without it being excessive? Maybe twice. Have I exceeded that threshold in this post? Yes. Am I desperate for new recruiting news? Also yes. Is this schtick tired by now? We’ll see.
 
I don't know why, but it's not bothering me that he decided not to come here. If we were a worse program, in need of a savior to come in and help us attain some goal. Then maybe. But Uconn, we build teams to win championships. We are beyond were a lot of programs are. No doubt it would've been great to see him in a UConn uniform, but I think he would need a year to adjust to the game. He will show up in some nice highlight films and be drafted high, but we have our sights on bigger goals.

Why do I read this post in an '70s film robot voice?

By the time he comes to Gampel to play, he’ll definitely need to adjust to seeing above him maybe 18 or 19 National Championship banners.
