It’s Braylon Mullins Week

[FearThePups]

Something about the red with the husky pup just doesn’t sit right with me.

 

[FearThePups]

It's getting to the point where they're now attacking Braylon's family as well

That’s really sick. We lost many in state stars to more prominent programs for decades. Join the club Indiana. You haven’t been relevant since 1987.

Yeah, and we acted the same exact way towards Cooper when he chose Duke. We're no better.

 

[FearThePups]

almost makes me want to open a twitter account to read it all, but I already waste too much time on IG. Don't need another social media wasteland - hahaha

But aren’t you just a wee bit curious?

It isn't a negative, but from casual observation it seems that Braylon's father has been "the voice" of his recruitment. But I get no sense that he is involved in the final decision (I doubt he is advising his son not to go to Indiana, but to play a plane ride away in Connecticut).

You guys want to laugh?

I bet stuff like this makes Braylon and his family even more comfortable with choosing UConn. And by the way, don’t like 2026s and 2027s won’t notice crap like this. And some Yarders think THIS fanbase can be toxic. ROFL

 

[FearThePups]

Two hours to go guys.

in the span of a few months this staff have been surgical in swooping on their priority targets and getting them. not all of it is the championship halo. they've done the work selling a credible vision carried by basketball ideas. braylon is foregoing a lot of NIL to pursue this vision and the rest of our recruits are similarly dedicated to just basketball and being better. this positive vision is imo more worthy of being talked about than fanbase squabbling.

gotta stay on message and spread the kidn of propaganda hurley wants to see.

This fanbase has done worse. Let's not play holier-than-thou

I don't believe the boneyard was this toxic last year when a certain young man picked Duke over UConn, and as we know emotions can push some to the edge of a cliff. But I could be wrong in my assessment of my fellow boneyard members.

The problem is back in the day it was John Mike, Joe, Doug, Pete, Jim and now it is Acaden, Antonbaron, Mercuious, etc.

Of course the positive is you don't actually have to know how to spell any name, you just literally have to look at the spelling on the internet and then type the same letters in the same order. Thoughts and prayers.

Matt Norlander of CBS Sports interviewed Trilly Donovan earlier this year (questions and answers were done by e-mail) to see if he could figure out who Trilly Donovan is. Interesting read if you care.

Matt Norlander's college hoops notebook also has an interview with basketball's notorious anonymous scoopmeister: 'Trilly Donovan'

What is it with Boneyarders butchering players and recruits names? Is it that hard to look them up? Or is it lazy spell checking after voice texting their posts?

Come on now. Let's not be sore winners.
IU is plenty relevant and will continue to be going forward. It's just that their bar was set very high by General Knight and it's tough to reach that super high level. They are good program just not a National Championship level program at the moment. Things can change quickly. UCONN Nation knows this very well.

Mmm... did "we" though?

nah they simply suck right now and will continue to suck unless they do serious work to revamp the program. nice fanbase and NIL though.

I definitely am, but I figure that it’s anything truly entertaining, it’ll pop up somewhere on BY

Didn't some attack his mom? Lol. We went after the mom…

 

[JerseyAlum]

Scheduled it an hour later to account for East Coast time.

Yup - the countdown is live on 247 so will be refreshing often.

We did.
Husky429 confirmed it above.

Posts like this don’t make them a sympathetic figure.

they are pretty delusional and don't seem to know a lot about college bb or basketball in general.

Link?

They’ll probably end up with Brad Stevens at some point. They’ll be his end of career reclamation project.

Some are great and knowledgeable. Some are like this. Most fanbases of programs that have had a history of success probably are similar. But it’s worth pointing stuff like this out to those that view the BY as a “toxic place” or outside of the norm. There’s good and not so good takes found most anyplace.
