2025 Recruiting: Jacob Furphy Commits to UConn!

[superjohn]

He’s already grown 2”

He measured 6'4.5 barefoot 210 lbs eight months ago.

 

[KingAG]

He measured 6'4.5 barefoot 210 lbs eight months ago.

So he’s probably 6’5.5 with shoes on

 

[J187Money]

The more I watch this the more I feel bad for the Illini (my Dad's alma mater). That is just brutal.

As Ricky Bobby once said, “I’m on fire”

Hurley is hot on the recruiting trail!

 

[KingAG]

Also, for anyone who doesn’t think Solo is on a 2 and done plan. LOL.

This is further proof

 

[superjohn]

It's funny how little this board talked about his game compared to how scouts talk about his game. We got a stud.

Didn’t realize 247 even listed him.

They don't have him listed. He's a top 50 player if he's American. I don't know how and where they're getting 4 star ranked #152 from.

 

[UCLJ0211]

So did I hearing about this commitment.

Love lefties who can stroke it from deep.

 

[TheHorde]

Duke was recruiting him?

Richard Kent, though.

They just made a page for him. If you click and view UConn’s class it shows him 152nd. Not sure if that will change. I agree that he’s certainly far better than 152nd regardless

You forgot Reibe , everyone of them are legit 3 point shooters.

I didn't forget. You can only have three members in a trio.

Feel free to make a list of four players if you'd like to do so.

 

[UConn Dan]

Richard Kent, though.

Who is Richard Kent?

 

[alexd]

When we wakeup tomorrow this kid is going to be a 6''-8" PF.

 

[Giddyup5]

With AK leaving I can imagine Furphy becoming the next connector/processor that has been so valuable to our success over the last 3 years.

Who is Richard Kent?

Cousins with Clark - and he’s always spreading bad info. Insider wannabe.

 

[Skiblets]

Cousins with Clark - and he’s always spreading bad info. Insider wannabe.

Cousin of Rutgers Al

 

[Chin Diesel]

Very fun, very cool.

Very demure.

 

[ToolzieFan]

From January:



Sounds like another great pickup!

 

[uconnfan68]

Time zones, son.

That Date Line can be a killer.

 

[FfldCntyFan]

Cousins with Clark - and he’s always spreading bad info. Insider wannabe.

Are you claiming that he's related to superman?


(Clark Kent reference)

 

[Chin Diesel]

That Date Line can be a killer.

Cousin through marriage? Yes.
Cousin through blood? No.

 

[Son of Robert]

I really like how tough he comes across; it's right there in front of us. For some reason he reminds of Cam Spencer with this, and the blocky body, and the 3's, and the passing, and the IQ. Welcome to UConn Jacob!

 

[jibsey]

From January:



Sounds like another great pickup!

Just looking at the mixtape first time, his passing is off the charts. Great use of the backboard and shooting of course. Hurley and staff are killing it!

Nah
