Kenya Hunter hired as Assistant Coach

[methodology]

SKJ of Kentucky is transferring, was the number two player in Virginia out of high school, wonder if Hunter is familiar with him?

I believe uva and UNC were his top choices before

 

[ctchamps]

You think you're funny, don't you?

After the announcement the bell ringer had nothing on me.

 

[HawkHusky]

I am quite impressed with our Boneyard Insiders. Well done guys. Thank you for getting the scoop.

 

[Kemba'sYogurt]

So this is what it feels like to not wear a cup.

Thanks @Matrim55 @JMick

light up the AAC and make it decent + in a good position for TV $$$

This. With Hurley, Hardaway, McKie, and Dooley, the AAC is well poised going into the 2020 contract. UConn needs to be UConn again.

The new Big East coaches have been poached to death. They are giving assistants long term HC contracts. Screw that. Now that Chris Mack left, the NBE coaches include Leitao, Steele, Wojrtrshyjyrdowski, Willard, Mullin, McDermott, Ewing, Cooley, Wright, Jordan. That is not worth much.

Not sure why all the celebration. These new coaches haven't resulted in a single addition to our roster. What's the delay?

What's a SKJ????

UConn needs to be UConn again.

They will be. I had a dream they lost a heartbreaker in the s16, with 24 wins. Not sure if that dream was this coming year or what and hey, it was just a dream...But it was very similar to some of those heartbreakers throughout most of the 90s/game vs Texas.

Regardless, Uconn will come back with a venegance. Watch out!

What's a SKJ????

SKJ may refer to:

• League of Communists of Yugoslavia (Serbo-Croatian: Savez komunista Jugoslavije)

Not sure UCONN Basketball wants/needs that.

 

[Stainmaster]

This is cool.

Very very cool.





Trying to remain calm. Keep repeating to myself "it's only April, it's only April."



But literally vibrating in my cubicle.

You should get that checked out if it continues.

For UConn that's a nightmare! And yes I know people will be just happy to make the tournament again. But we just had an NC. No settling.

Strong Ketchup Juju: The mojo that you get from making @August_West eat turkey and Ketchup sandwiches.

Of course it could be this guy

Sorry. If I tell ya, I'd have to Killeya.

If you have to ask you can't afford it.

One of the worst mojo ideas we had. Well the idea was great, but the outcome was horrible.

Out of all people, I would’ve expected you to be familiar with the identities of transfer options for UConn athletics.

 

[Confident Carl]

First Young from Minnesota, then Hunter from Nebraska. Not only did DH secure two quality coaches and recruiters but it's sweet knowing we plucked them from the two P5 schools in the B1G.

 

[Hey Adrien!]

Hunter averaged 2.1 steals/game in his career.
Jones averaged 1.5 steals/game while going to the line 6 times/game in his last season.

These guys have real life experience in areas that this team needs dire improvement. Me likey.

Wright, Willard, McDermott, and Cooley are all good coaches. Guys like Woj, and Steele will likely be very good. All the AAC really has for proven commodities, is Cronin32. Hurely and Penny probably have bright futures, but we still need to see their success.

Cooley is okay, but he doesn’t belong on that list.

I blame August's decision to artisinal grass fed organic turkey and various tomato based sauces instead of the mojo sandwich. The sentence was clear:

Before every game, Augie has to eat a turkey sandwich. With lots of ketchup. So much ketchup, it squirts out the sides and back of the sandwich and he feels like he’s drowning in it. And every time he posts, from now until the end of our season, someone needs to respond with “Shut up and eat the Mojo sandwich, commie!” Yup. It’s the victim you wanted with the punishment you wanted.

It was the execution that was lacking.

 

[Lefty2one]

Sounds like a great hire based on the responses here and around the web.

I will ask the question though; what in the world was a highly touted recruiter with DMV connections doing at Nebraska? That's a big step down from Georgetown unless the B1G pay their assistants much more than the Big East. Was he given greater responsibilities at Nebraska than JT3 was offering him?

He did his part. Disgusting sandwiches and I know the man carried it out. Not his fault. Bad choice of mojo. As you know he's my hero. #bonechina
