Graduate Transfer: Kameron Rooks

[RipCity]

Did his parents send him to the carribean as a grad present? Thought this was common knowledge.

Im just glad we can set our hearts on another kid.

 

[UConnStats]

Got his release today. Teams can start officially reaching out. Hope we're involved.

I'm sure we reached out. We were in his final 5 (although we were prioritizing Brimah at that point).

If there's anybody we should be go hard after right now it's this kid... we are kinda wasting our time chasing anybody now, for the most part, that's any good (frontcourt wise) that's gonna be eligible this coming Fall... He's a perfect fit here for right now....

 

[mauconnfan]

I reached out to him, we should be all set!

Picture so we can figure your reach.

I got nothing

 

[Fishy]

There's about a 0% chance he's coming here.

 

[huskyharry]

There's about a 0% chance he's coming here.

So you say there is a chance then?

He would be a GREAT fit to our needs!

 

[Storrs South]

 

[husky99]

Yes please

 

[The Funster]

I reached out to him, we should be all set!

Now all we need is someone to give him a reach around.

 

[champs99and04]

St. Louis seems kind of random.

 

[tcf15]

Just gut feeling, but Gonzaga seems likely here.

 

[UConnStats]

Just gut feeling, but Gonzaga seems likely here.

Not sure what their scholarship situation is, but they may be landing Chase Jeter this weekend.

 

[superjohn]

Just gut feeling, but Gonzaga seems likely here.

Depends on whether he wants to start. He would certainly be starting here, don't see that at Gonzaga.

 

[Stainmaster]

St. Louis seems kind of random.

Ford's had a couple of recruiting coups ('17 Goodwin and '18 Gordon) since taking the job. Seems like that's the one thing he's halfway decent at.

 

[Stainmaster]

Not sure what their scholarship situation is, but they may be landing Chase Jeter this weekend.

Even if they get Jeter, they'd still have 2 scholarships left over.

 

[CAHUSKY]

Now all we need is someone to give him a reach around.

If it will get us his commitment I'm in with both hands.

Not sure where you are getting this from. The only guy with the size or bulk to play the 5 on their roster is the Danish kid who redshirted for them last year. Williams and Tillie are both four-men from my understanding.

I'd love to have Rooks, but I don't know if we offer something Gonzaga doesn't PT-wise.

My bad, had no idea Collins hired an agent.

Iowa State and Illinois are real threats too. Chillious and Ollie will have to just bear down and sell the kid.

 

[auror]

Crank that thermostat down. Let's get chilly.

 

[HuskyHawk]

SDSU is my prediction. Warm. Lots of girls. Yep...for a meaningless grad year...that's the spot.

 

[awfuldan]

Really hope we can get a visit from this guy. Have to imagine Gonzaga will be tough to beat though..

 

[KembaStepback]

Would be a great fit.

 

[Coach J]

Would be a great fit.

He's the perfect stop-gap in that he's an experienced big who plugs an immediate hole and gives KO and Chill time to get their swagger back on the recruiting trail for next year.

 

[KembaStepback]

And it gives KO and Chill time to get their swagger back on the recruiting trail.

Exactly. Match made in heaven.

 

[pj]

And it gives KO and Chill time to get their swagger back on the recruiting trail.

Yes, Rooks would fill the major hole in next year's lineup. Diarra, Polley, and Larrier can plug the PF spot. A commitment would also get us to the magic mark of 10 players for 5-on-5 scrimmages. Would immediately turn around the whole tenor of this board.

 

[8893]

Any relation to Taylor?

Does he want to be?!?

Send in the big guns!
