Not with that attitude we're not!Yeah, if all those stay in the chase, we ain't getting this guy.
Not with that attitude we're not!
With the way you worded your title I was going to ask what type of love.
Love as in a long and happy marriage. Love as in an engagement that gets called off last second. Or love like you ex college girl friend. But I see from the twitter I can't be funny.
That falls under the category of engagement called off last second maybe?Or fake love?
The only thing that separates UConn (negatively) from the 3 other schools listed is our propensity lately to miss the NCAA tourney. A top 5 recruit will probably be gone after 1 year so obviously making the Tourney is a high priority, he will still get plenty of press and exposure at UConn (for now) so AAC doesn't matter much.
If he loves KO and believes we are on the mend maybe he comes here otherwise what is the benefit to him playing in the NIT. I think some high rated kids really would love to play for KO for 1 or 2 years but they have to be convinced UConn is a top 25ish program at minimum again. We make the sweet 16 next year and this past season is a distant memory.
Ala wenyan gabrielIf you actually want to play and you're not a top 10 recruit cross Duke and U.K. off your list. Cal sends dude who would be going to the NBA there any but if you're anything less than a top top top recruit you'll be buried on the bench and not have a chance to play
Exactly who I had in mind. I wonder if other schools use this against U.K. I would.Ala wenyan gabriel
It's a hard thing to use against them, right? "We think you're excellent, our top target at the PF. I know Cal is recruiting you too, but if you go there you won't be good enough to get minutes."Exactly who I had in mind. I wonder if other schools use this against U.K. I would.

Yeah it is a bit of a catch22Yeah, that one stings. The only thing you can go with is that we have a ton of minutes available, and UK has 5 guys at your position. Your choice.
FIFY with the implication of the statement.UK has 5 guys at your position that you might not be able to beat out.
Why don't any of the kids that turn down UConn because of PT concerns ever have that irrational confidence?FIFY with the implication of the statement.
What makes great players great is their irrational confidence. It's an important thing to remember.

Right. There's almost no way other coaches DON'T use that against UK, because it's one of the only things that can be used.
You don't say anything to the recruit that indicates negativity of his game or whatever, but the essence of "who are you going to play over?" At UK is a big thing, and kids know that stuff. They see rosters and recruits and all of that.
