2023 Recruiting: Jayden Ross Visit 6/14

[Hey Adrien!]

When you consider:

• UConn has been Ross' only offer since November,
• Only 7 other teams have offered Ross

It'll be something like a top-3 OR a UConn commit.

 

[JonnyRI]

Anyone in the know have an idea why UConn seems to be all over this kid and no one else really is?

What seems to be the internal narrative?

Va Tech's whole staff just watched him recently. I would be surprised if this was a commitment to UConn.

Not sure that's entirely accurate

 

[Storrs South]

Wonder if this guy knows something

High upside, summer 1 commit?? (Assuming reclass)

 

[Hey Adrien!]

His brother is finishing his freshman year, his known as a sharpshooter and is already 6'6...let's make it a package deal!

[HuskyFich]

Uhhhhh you’re not @Matrim55 ??

 

[MDHuskFan]

Could be a High School transfer too

 

[navery12]

Just a top 5

 

[Phoenixhusky]

one is not like the others

 

[Fishy]

So the decision was that he was releasing a top 5?

Okay, fine.

He also said he’s committing on July 27th

Was a typo. He’s announcing this Monday (June 27) per instagram

Yep saw that. Have to imagine it’s us

AAU teammates with Solo Ball and Isaiah Coleman. It's weird the one who is ranked the highest and says he grew up a UConn fan (Coleman) is the one we hear very little about.

 

[k-walk]

Is he the reclass #12 scholarship? Or do we have another player committing in the next couple weeks?

 

[connjah]

 

[Huskyforlife]

Gonna assume the staff just got good news.

 

[Mooch82]

Is he the reclass #12 scholarship? Or do we have another player committing in the next couple weeks?

Yeah, someone asked if he was reclass eligible which is a great question. My hunch is this is the guy for #12 but we probably bring along slowly and MAYBE redshirt.

 

[Hey Adrien!]

One of the 247 Crystal Balls is from Colby Giacubueno, who is 31 for 31 in Class of 2023 predictions.

Trending in a great way.. Does Ross take Middleton out of play?? Or do they have complimentary skill sets that can co-exist??

Ross is a developmental guy so don't think he'll take anyone out of the equation. Would just mean we're not gonna add multiple top 40-50 wings which seemed like a long shot anyway

 

[kansashusky]

I hope this is a reclass. If not, it’s puzzling.

I think it has to be.

Guys in the 100-150 range are puzzling?

What do you like about him?

 

[Brochacho]

What do you like about him?

1. He wants to play for UConn
2. Hurley wants him to play for UConn

I stopped getting hyped about recruit's tape after Anglin. The last three picks in the draft were ranked 334, 89, and 129 in the 2020 class so I'm not worried about the #136 player.
