In Future News, Emmanuel Mudiay will be a problem for 1 year.

MCD AA game. Holy Moly this kid is unreal. Complete package and then some extra.

 

[huskyharry]

Very talented player who makes others better and knows when to take over. SMU will be very tough next year, but UCONN will be looking for some payback as well.

 

[metsfan2323]

Yup, he looks like the real deal (love his passing ability). Good problem to have though, we need sparring partners. Hopefully they get that center too. The AAC might have two top ten teams to start the season.

It will be interesting to see if ESPN hypes the AAC's super frosh.

 

[FluxTZ]

I was thinking the same thing watching him tonight.

 

[ColoradoUCFan]

Finally, SMU will have a chance to beat us

 

[BLUEDOGHOUSE]

With the addition of a player like Mudiay, it could really push SMU over the top in the American Athletic Conference next season. The Mustangs are going to have high hopes next season as Mudiay joins talented sophomore guard Nic Moore in the backcourt. Mudiay said he and Moore talk regularly about playing with each other next season.

“I feel like we can both alternate (guard spots) because he can score the ball too,” Mudiay said. “I’m going to play on-the-ball some, I’m going to play off-the-ball some, so it’s going to be fun. We talk all the time, every time I go watch them play. He tells me all the time, and I tell him, that we can’t wait to play with each other. Just how Shabazz (Napier) and (Ryan) Boatright play, something like that. We can be a two-guard front.”

UCONN will have Rodney Purvis with Boatright next year. Sam Cassell Jr. will join that mix along with Terrence Samuels. We will have our own fearsome 4 out there.

 

[johnhuskies95]

IF Mudiay is eligible next year, I think SMU will be a top 10 team.

If? Why would you assume that?

That will be a deep and talented back court especially seeing how good Samuels has been. I think its safe to say he wont be at the end of nobodys bench.

 

[johnhuskies95]

He goes to Prime Prep, which has had a ton of problems over the years. Some people were saying last year that even Kentucky backed off him.

 

[azescobar]

I love how Shabazz and Boat have become THE standard for guard play this year..all backcourt conversations now begin and end with Bazz and Boat. Arizona is not PGU.

Oh, and Lebron is just giving Uconn more and more love..today he tweeted one word: #ShabazzNapier

 

[Huskyforlife]

I want smu to be good, but him and turner wouldn't be fair. Turner looked great on defense, I don't think any of Okafors post moves worked on him

Kentucky backed off him after he verbaled to SMU, LOL. And we know this is true because Kentucky then scrambled to offer guards like Chiozza, Ulis, the kid UConn was going for (forget his names, Josh P.???). If Calipari was backing off, why did he wait to offer another PG?

 

[david]

I think Rodney is going to be the only one in the conference who has the size/quickness/athleticism to defend him

LOL...you are 1 bright bulb! Seems like you really have a feel for the personnel on this years team. What would the BY do without such astute basketball fans? FYI... Purvis is not that great of a defender and has a low hoops IQ. That will change under KO but please leave your defensive scouting report in the cra**er. lol

Everyone that ever played under Gottfried had a low hoops IQ. Why single out Purvis when the coach can't find his face?

 

[phillionaire]

I don't really think you can take too much from the McDonald's AA game. There's less defense played there than the NBA all star game.

I hate when people take a shot at a kid based on perceived rumors. ESP. when their perceived facts are wrong.

LOL....Sure this game is the quintessential barometer to determine the prowess of these 2 players lol. Turner is an excellent prospect but a project on the offensive end. Next year AB would OWN him. So it would be fair bro if SMU landed him. SMU will be Top 15 without him next year. Yanick Moreira will return next year as a better player than Frosh Turner.

Coming from anyone else, I'd feel insulted. But you are a special kind of stupid BLUEDOGHOUSE

"Own him" lol aight

That's not true, guys were blocking shots all over the place. I saw a decent amount of defense out of them. Obviously not like a real game, but in the All star game they don't even try to pretend they're playing defense

I'll bring this back the next time we play smu. Turner is a beast and I'm not basing this off the AA game

 

[Huskyforlife]

We'll assuming he signs there
