If you're a recruit...

[superjohn]

If you're a recruit how do you not want to play for Hurley and UConn? Every possible thing has gone against this.group and they fight til the end every time. We're going to get really good soon and this group will be remembered.

When Hurley came out and smashed the logo in center court I had to actually stop myself from physically running through a wall

Not unlike the 2012-2013 team?

Adversity builds ballers.

Down to 7 guys, nothing falling at the rim, anderson making idiotic calls again. And still get the W.

That's Uconn basketball.

I hope Etienne and Cruz soaked that in, our future is bright!

They showed a close-up on TV of Hurley getting emotional when he saw Akok crying with his crutches on the bench. He loves his kids.

Plenty of recruits on hand today.

we had everyone in the building tonight, jalen adams, napier, tor watts, the hurleys, a bunch of freakin recruits and memphis losers crying home tonight!!!!! UCONN!!!!!

Hurley sr. Was chatting with the jersey kids. Imagine how a 15 year old from NJ feels sitting next to that legend.

Lmao. I was ready to rip my shirt off and join you.

Finally, someone giving Tor Watts some love!

 

[uconnbill]

How any recruit couldn't love today. The passion and the heart from everyone. They really care about one another

Great win

Running into walls tends to hurt your bar exam results.

I've got two years to recover, seems like it would be worth it

 

[KingAG]

Games and moments like this are what reenergize a program and a fan base. Great night(sans akok) in Hartford

 

[CardiacAndre7]

Loved seeing Facey there. I haven’t heard much about him recently, great to see him back home!

At the game, Andre Jackson getting introduced to the crowd on the main screen after a short highlight reel of dunks. Never seen this done before, how could any recruit not eat this up. Fifteen five cheering for you.

Anyone have video?

SAME. CHILLS.

 

[Vuce]

It sorta came outta nowhere. Haven’t seen UConn do this in the past. They announced AJ then a short highlight of him throwing down some dunks then a close up of him and he looks straight at the camera, smiles and salutes everyone. It was pretty cool

 

[Horatio]

At some point the injuries have to stop or recruiting won’t matter. This is happening every year now.

 

[Spaceman213J]

I just hope this silences the few who still doubted Hurley. I've also liked the offense with Gaffney at the point. He seems to be learning to push without pressing.

I saw Donovan Clingin in the hall after the game. He’s a legit 7 footer and looks so damn young. I told him I can’t wait until he joins uconn in a couple years and he said “I hope so”

 

[DayDayTFS]

SAME. CHILLS.

He got a low five from the ref in the huddle for it. They were laughing about it. Not Anderson btw

Kids a monster. You should watch him play live, just toying with the opponents

 

[LIuconn]

Do we have video footage?

 

[Jaker]

Seeing Shabazz at the game makes me feel all warm and fuzzy inside.

 

[Towney007]

Not trying to really shed any positive light on Akok's injury, but if I'm a recruit and I see how much that coach cares about his players the way Hurley showed how much he cared today in front of everyone... that's a guy who I know is walking the walk.

He has something so authentic about him. You can't not live him as a coach.

The crowd was very loud when he took his bow. Great to hear.

Yeah I got chills from the Shabazz ovation. The energy in the building was really high afterwards as we closed out the game.
