I've seen quite a few Kentucky fans saying this kid was a disaster in his recruitment because of how much NIL he wanted. If Kentucky fans are saying that, then you know something is up with this guy. Woof

Definitely a me, me player. I thought he was the perfect Kentucky recruit, but I guess Kentucky was afraid of the NIL luxury tax. :p

Every single UConn fan should trust the process at this point.

Makes sense that UConn picked up their recruitment of Dwayne Aristode from Brewster who is playing with Expressions this spring. Class of '25.

Pretty sure that Abdou Toure is playing on the same team as Aristode. Nigel James (LuHi) should be on that same Expressions team.

Expressions is loaded this summer. I'd expect Tom and Luke to watch every game they can.
 
Abdou Toure is a poor man's Sanon. Not a knock, I just mean easier to get and may eventually be as good. He's also only in 10th grade and just won the state championship.

People who claim to be in the know say this recruitment changed when he hired his agent

Wow, I must be behind the curve, didn’t realize high school kids were getting agents!

I don’t know if it’s good or bad that we’re going to be in the mix for legions of these golddiggers. “Hey Arizona, my main motivation is to win a championship and there’s a team up in Storrs in the mix that’s pretty good at it so I’m starting to lean in that direction unless i can somehow be convinced to reconsider…”

If he's a me me player, then we we wouldn't want him him. Team first.
 
I don't like speaking badly of people I know little to nothing about so I will try to be careful here.

The weekend when he attended both a UConn home game and a Providence home game in the same day, each followed by tweets basically asking followers of each school who could be louder in saying "come to our school" gave me the impression that he prefers a bit more individual attention and praise than the guys who have done well here under coach Hurley receive.

I wish him no harm but the way I see it, if he came here, we would be playing at the highest level of college basket and competing for championships. If he goes somewhere else, we would be playing at the highest level of college basket and competing for championships.

At a school that last won one almost 30 years ago. Just keeping it real. He's one and done anyway and won't sniff a title at Arizona, not even a conference title.

One is heading into college next season and the other is going to be a junior in high school next season. They also don't play anything like each other.
 
Tucson is warm during the school year, it’s a draw. Their campus is not nicer than Storrs, I’ve been to both. Our program is better.
 
I won't fault a kid for picking Arizona. Consistent top ten program, big money, best conference. It's a solid choice. I hate losing kids to schools like Cinci or Rutgers though, i'll never understand that.
 
Toure is just a kid who has a lot of development/growth in front of him before he even steps on a CBB floor. Will be a different player by then. Hard to compare with a projected one-and-done.

Abdou is a baller for a young dude. Will be fun to watch him grow in AAU this summer.
