Jayden Ross is Back

[karstenkibbe]

The BY assessments about this team this year have been the most egregiously off-the- mark for any individual or team in recent history.
We should actually celebrate how awful we are at judging talent

Can we share some of the Boneyard blame with our pal Sam Vecenie down in Melbourne? Dude got my hopes sky high on Furphy.

Great news! a true husky - put in the work , trusted the process and stuck it out. Props to Jayden

Speak for yall (them) selves 😉

This is so funny. Sad. But true. Glad he’s back

Very excited to see the jump Jayden makes next year.

Wonder if the new NCAA rule can be helpful to guys like him and Stew.

So stoked to see this official news. Was pretty bummed about Reibe and immediately thought, “If J Ross, J Stew, Solo, and Silas all come back, Reibe being gone won’t sting so bad.” I’m sure I can get psyched on new guys every year (as I have on Joey C, Cam, Malachi, and others), but having some core continuity really is essential to me loving my team. Let’s go Jayden!!!

He is the closest player to NBA talent currently on roster.

No

I know it’s the way the world works now but seeing the “agreed to a deal to return” will never not be weird for me.

It's weird because I'm happy to hear it and annoyed to hear it at the same time

Now some posters have moved on to this is the end of UConn basketball.

I say we call him JayFour from now on............so glad he's back. I bought all of the good news about him all these years and it's great we're seeing what Dan Hurley saw during the summer of 2024. That was when the hype started but some guys just take a little longer to feel confident on the floor.

No

Who is actually committed to playing for UCONN next year? Demary and Mullins are contemplating going
Pro. The freshman can change their minds at the drop of a dollar. Ball? Reibe in portal. Guys who couldn't
get on court last year?

By forum rules, anyone who didn't graduate or announce they're leaving is assumed to return until stated otherwise.

I can see Jayden having big jump this year. Even to the tune of 15ppg or more. He had been behind talent, and his own confidence was low. Near the end of the year, once he got the opportunity to play freer, he got better and better.

 

[boog204]

He’ll maybe stay with his brother then transfer after he graduates?

So essentially sjt out another year?
