2023 Recruiting: Freddie Dilione Visit July 28-30

[Storrs South]

“I took visits to Tennessee, UVA, VCU, NC State and will be at the UConn 28-30th. I’m also looking to plan visits Alabama, FSU, and Michigan.”

[Hey Adrien!]

If I haven't said it enough, I'll say it again...I love big guards!!!

 

[mauconnfan]

Setting up another big guard visit huh? Has the Scotty boat sailed maybe?

 

[UconnU]

Lol at the amount of schools he’s looking at.

what's your definition of big G? 6'3+? imo it's a guy like castle that's around 6'6. but either way i'm kinda suprised staff is still recruiting CGs with castle and ball already committed. figured we'd be going after more Ws like middleton/coen/stewart.

 

[UconnU]

This kid has THE BAG

 

[Kenny11]

Very funky game he has

 

[rip7774]

Kind of an old man game. Crafty. Below the rim. Soft soft touch. Tough to tell too much off this.

Looks like Bouk without the hops.

He has more size, but the erky jerky, midrange-in, below the rim layup package. I’m going to get killed for this, but that highlight reminds me of a slightly longer Sool

 

[mauconnfan]

He was toying with the less skilled team he was playing against. But the mid range game looks solid as did the one lone range dart. Nice stroke good size.

And you can not lie!

 

[Hey Adrien!]

And you can not lie!

I get sprung!

@bendm, it’s more of a feel than a measurement. Rationalizing it takes away the joy of the big guard. It’s love cuz you know it’s love, right?

 

[RipCity]

That’s a weird video. I saw other highlights of him finishing above the rim earlier this year after we offered him.

Kid gets buckets, assists, and rebounds. Not sure how you can sell him to join a class with Ball and Castle, but he will probably be a very good player.

From Rivals:
Basketball Recruiting - Freddie Dilione shows he's an elite isolation scorer

He doesn't mention UConn as one of the schools recruiting him; for what it's worth

Could be older quotes. Considering he is using one of his 5 officials I'd assume he is interested and we are recruiting him.

BB Recruiting - Interesting update on 2023 G Freddie Dilione

Was supposed to visit UCONN later this month, but I’m told that visit has been cancelled.

[Storrs South]

So I guess the visit isn't happening

 

[bendm]

All hands on deck for Stewart and Carr

10 days later and UConn and FSU are replaced by Texas, Charleston, wake Forest and Oklahoma. Interesting. I like this kids game even though the comp on the adidas tape was not good.
I am sure Dan Hurley and staff have others in their sights
