What i have heard is that uconn has a tradition of being very honest with recruits about earning playing time and who else they are recruiting. This goes back to calhoun. Most school are not and will hide how hard they are recruiting similar players. Heard we have lost kids in the past waiting on other kids or telling lower ranked kids that we are going to still recruit others

I guess I agree. Although I feel like from the perspective of a 18 year old, they may rather be sweet talked and told what they want to here than have the staff be up front and honest. It probably doesn't matter as much with the better players because they have the chance to get a lot of playing time anyway
 
They know better than I but I would take him in a heartbeat. Can score, shoot and has good size. Having said that, I really don't know all that is true and as I said, they know better. Hope they're right because I like to get kids who KNOW they want to put that Husky uni on. Tough to say wait?

Just rub his head and whisper sweet nothings to him KO, tell him what he wants to hear!

I believe that is correct or we believe to be correct.

Just announced his final five consisting of UConn, Georgetown, LaSalle, Indiana, and Maryland.


 
FWIW, he retweeted something I tweeted out to him and other pro-UConn tweets. I didn't see many retweets or likes about other schools. Might mean nothing but I don't hate it!

I agree. And he seems to be a good shooter, which is something our team will likely be lacking in. I don't see why he and Hami seem to be considered mutually exclusive.

It's mostly a matter of minutes available. With Adams, Gilbert, Vital, MAL, and Diallo there's only so many minutes. If Beatty is okay with that then he could wind up here even if we get Diallo
 
Article on Scout (which I don't know how to link) says he would like to take his visits and make his decision by October. Likes KO and the family atmosphere with the players at UConn.
 
The comments on uconn seemed to be most complimentary of all the programs. If this kid is shown some love by the staff assuming they are not still after another big fish than I would be surprised if Ollie and killings with his philly ties could not lock this kid up.
