For better or worse there is “something else” going on in recruiting ,i.e., NIL

Hard to argue with any of what coach is saying.

Come to Storrs, win, then go pro.

Know it well. His property is part Prospect, part Cheshire. We hit golf balls into Mixville from his yard. My other brother lived in walking distance of Notch Road.

Brings back good memories of sledding down that hill as a kid.

No Ray Allen has already made that perfectly clear. You come to Storrs to learn your craft

 

[Umami Zen]

He also mentioned in an interview yesterday after parade and it was documented as part of an article in today's Sunday Courant about the process of Adama/Andre next steps..

Got my first concussion sledding there. Also remember biking down to mixville (and the notch store) when we were way too young to tell our parents that was our plan.

I absolutely LOVED what Ray Allen said. Never though of it that way before; but hes 100% correct. You come to Storrs to get your education and learn your craft. Anything OTHER than that is just holding you back or distracting you from doing that. Hes right.

No where else to put this but tyrese is playing against the Celtics on ABC right now. 4-5-1.

It was an important distinction for us in the old BE. It was a big factor in a players choice to come to UC.

The great thing about that for UConn is that most guys who came had that attitude (Wiggins, Wren are maybe a few exceptions). The guys who want glamour and distractions outside of that tend to choose different schools. It means we miss on some guys, but in many cases that ends up being a good thing.

RI beaches less than an hour from Storrs.

 

[Hoophound]

Ray did a lot of things in Storrs “to perfect his craft”. Most of them were blonde and many had a boyfriend.
