Jaylin Stewart finds ‘perfect fit’ with UConn basketball

Corey Floyd Jr. to Providence

Just a theory Re the scholarships because I know it happens. It is possible that there was an agreement with the Intl. guys to come here and see if they can play and compete at this level and will be re-evaluated at the end of the year. And if it doesn't work out they will have the help and support of the staff to find a more suitable place to play.

I’d imagine this is understood on some level. Plus it’s not like they’d stay if the staff told them playing time isn’t happening.

 

[Umami Zen]

These dudes will be loyal to the Program.. Give them time in the gym vs BE level athletes.. You may be surprised by their talent/impact

 

[navery12]

Have to imagine all seniors are gone, right?

Most likely, I think there's a small chance Alleyne sticks around for an extra year given the Castle connection. Alleyne and Springs are the wild cards of the 2023-24 roster for me, could see it going either way

LET'S GO!!!!!!!!!

Like I said in the Jaylin Stewart thread it felt like we had a great chance for a commitment. Welcome to Husky nation Jaylin! I can't wait to see you play with next year's great Freshmen class.

I legitimately forgot he even existed. Same with Diggins lol

 

[Palatine]

Best of luck to Jaylin. The Washington pipeline is alive and well. Donny and Doug and Jay.

Staff did an unreal job of adding talent both in the transfer market, and in recruiting for next year.

Floyd was a sketchy exit, and I'll leave it at that. Staff still isn't happy at a certain school in Rhode Island.

I’ll be interested to see how Hurley and Cooley interact during and after their games.

Why would the school who poached the kid be unhappy?

The UConn staff isn't happy with the staff there

Ah, I was tripped up by the diction. A “with” instead of “at” would have worked.

 

[CTFAN4LIFE]

More evidence as to why Big East coaches weren't so thrilled about UConn's return... we can recruit BOTH coasts (and in between).

 

[Da_Aisijimo_Gou]

Doug wrenn?

Hah, not so well for Doug Wrenn. I was thinking Donny Marshall.

 

[HCCForever]

Doug Wrenn showed great promise but couldn't stay out of trouble. I googled him and found this, "He was ranked by Complex as the 19th best player that never made it to the NBA.[3]".

LET'S GO!!!!!!!!!

Heck yeah!!! Man, I am so freaking excited. Like put me Iin a football jersey and I'll take the field against Michigan and get a sack excited.

[Chin Diesel]

This staff had a plan and it's all coming together. Keep bringing in quality players to replace the quality players leaving after having their value added while here. Isaiah Whaley just signed an NBA conract. Nobody saw that coming when he arrived.

 

[UconnFanDC]

He definitely has the Dan Hurley Uconn recruit look. Lol. Welcome J. Stewart

 

[UconnFanDC]

Chose us over Gonzaga. UConn is definitely back!

Lol. I wouldn't say because of this but I do hope we're back because I'm restless

 

[SoFla Steve]

From 24/7 . . .

 

[SoFla Steve]

Geez, another 4*

When will Hurley land some 5* recuits

Yea I think the poster meant we’re not happy with PC.

But it also wouldn’t bother me too much if PC also wasn’t happy because their “poach” turned out to be not what they expected to get talent-wise.
