Isaiah Whaley is a steely eyed Hilton unit

Who needs Precious when you have isaiah?

 

[Psolo12]

Made precious look like a punk bitch

 

[Kitaman]

I miss him dearly, but I'm not sure Akok could have done any better.

 

[Doctor Hoop]

Should have stuck with "Steely-eyed missile man". That works too.

IDK if I'd go that far but just knowing Whaley was Achiuwa's equal is a huge win for the Huskies.

 

[Hey Adrien!]

5 points, 7 rebounds, 6 blocks, 1 foul!

Pork Chop was a beast! If this was the Celtics he would have won ”The Tommy Award“ today.

 

[CTBasketball]

His defense on Achuiwa in the second half was KEY to this win.

 

[UChusky916]

Whaley had Achiuwas number all game defensively. We won cuz of him. Huge game Pork Chop!

 

[Kenny11]

Check my history. I am a proud original porkchop supporter and believer.

 

[Conndog]

His first shot was key too- 15 foot all net that stopped Memphis threat to put game away early

 

[Hankster]

I always liked him. However, this year he is amazing. Comes off the bench and contributes immediately. He always looks quiet on the bench.

And he’ll come back next year with some offense I think. Just an amazing transformation. I thought Carlton had some moments today also.

 

[Waquoit]

This guy just balls. All credit to him for putting himself in position to help UConn win big games.

 

[Son of Robert]

Isaiah played fantastic today. 35 minutes of outstanding defense, Achiuwa was trying to ISO him and putting up bad shots as a result. Isaiah contributed so much to this win, rebounds, blocks, and steady play. Every aspect of the game was 100%.

13 boards

 

[JonnyRI]

Got what we needed from the front court. Bottom line they got it done on D and the boards got a few put backs not a lot of dumb fouls and they were blocking shots. We get that every night and the rest of the year looks damn good even sans Akok.

 

[ToolzieFan]

Loved this play.

 

[MDHuskFan]

I loved him walk-in up the court talking at Precious. Ref even kinda got between them. Love when guys play with confidence & IW’s seems sky high

 

[BlueDogs]

You can smell the confidence building in all these guys. Amazing what some winning does. This doesn’t happen without the other 2 big Ws.

dozens of 'yarders wanted Hurley to run Whaley off last summer

 

[The Viking]

There were also people wondering why Hurley took Adams. These kids are developing under this coaching staff. Its great to see.
Hurley knows what he's doing. He's a carpenter. Jesus would be proud.

Yup, I WAS one. Since January, he doesn't resemble the player he was earlier. Just delighted with his heart, his effort, and his focus on playing to his strengths. A real grit player who will do the dirty work to win. He is UConn. Congratulations to the coaching staff also.
