It's Miller Time

[superjohn]

We are going to have a very talented starting 5 next season, we did extremely well with our last 5th year transfer and the final 4 is in Houston next year. When final 4's are in Texas we tend to win them, just saying.

I feel like a lot of posters are unaware about this commit, seems pretty low traffic for such a get. He is an immediate starter and could be one of the best players on the team. trouting out a line up of Adams, Purvis, Hamilton, Miller, Brimah... wow. no excuses

 

[mauconnfan]

GREAT news.

Welcome to Storrs Shonn. Thank you

Thank God we've finally replaced Lenehan's GPA.

Or at least came close...

Also, at some point KO has gotta get credit for zeroing in on these big time transfers... kromah could have played at indiana, miller had his choices, but KO reeled him in.

Agreed. This is KO's best recruiting hall by far but he will always get from his doubters. Just the way it goes.

Beautiful!!!!

"It just felt like home," Miller said. "I got along with all the players and everybody in general just welcomed me like I was a part of their family."

The 6-foot-7 Miller averaged 16.8 points and 8.5 rebounds for Cornell this past season and was one of the most coveted transfers on the market.

He also considered Marquette, Michigan, California and Illinois.

I always love KO and am generally very positive but was told some things about One of the recruiting assistants that makes me think he will struggle in that role. A lot of us are just saying we want another recruiter on staff to do some of the heavy lifting, it seems like it's all KO at times.

Huge get!!

Phew.....what a relief! What a great fit! Now for the next piece of the puzzle...a PG please!

Not on this site he won't. There are enough idiots who believe KO can't recruit or win with his own players. Miller is a very important get for us.

 

[Matrim55]

This is such a huge get. Our biggest weaknesses against good teams were defensive rebounding and slow rotations due to lack of experience & communication. Miller is as close to a one-man fix for both of those as was available via any avenue - high school, JuCo, 5th years, whatever.

And on the other side of the ball he hits the hell out of his FTs and can pass a little bit, two other things that we lacked this year.

And so the trend of KO's recruiting classes improving every year continues. Very happy day for UConn hoops.

Great news.

 

[uconnsouth]

Sorely needed good news on the trail

 

[businesslawyer]

Great news as I'm waiting for my wife shopping at forever 21. Something to get me over this misery! Lol.

Great get now get one more guard and we can make some noise next year.

If your wife is young enough to be shopping at forever 21, than there are many on here who are not feeling sorry for you.

If your wife is young enough to be shoppi g at forever 21, than there are many on here who are not feeling sorry for you.

She just turned 30. I'm 45. Yes and she is from Brazil. So I guess no reason to complain. Lol!

 

[huskyharry]

Welcome Shonn!
Next season will be something special that you will never forget!

 

[Hugo]

Great get !!! Miller should had much needed scoring AND rebounding

 

[noeynox]

She just turned 30. I'm 45. Yes and she is from Brazil. So I guess no reason to complain. Lol!

 

[ChrisSmith]

Awesome get for Ollie! Welcome Shonn!

Looks like he shot way to many 3's (3.5 a game) for being a 27% shooter. He was actually 50% from the field excluding 3's. I hope Ollie gets him to focus on the paint.

 

[HuskyOfLeisure]

Great News and Welcome Shonn!!

Special Thanks to SchoolBoyQ!!

 

[Blue Blood]

Is the rest of the american ready to get millerized

 

[Stainmaster]

I think that the university should consider forming an unofficial partnership with ScHoolboy Q. It'd be great to have him again when other top recruits visit...

 

[johnhuskies95]

His field goal percentage is slightly concerning considering his position, but he rebounds really well and I expect a lot of his missed shots had to do with having to be the focal point of the offense.
