If we get all 3…I think we’re the best team in America again. If AK returns there’s zero question in my mind.

PS this is nuts - I said from the start my ideal would be all 3 if they buy in to what Coach is selling…if not, I think Mahaney and McNeeley are best duo but I’ll take any combo with McNeeley.

If we get all 3, this team is going to be REALLY fun again.

I got sheet for beeching about our freshman class all year but I’m ecstatic to be proven wrong. We could be a better three point team than last year which is crazy to think

Oh 100%. We're definitely in the running w/o Karaban. But with karaban... man we are going to be incredible.

All Hurley needs to do, is show some tape of the unselfish motion offense that they ran this repeat National Campionship season, where any of the skilled scorers on the floor could get good scoring opportunities, or find themselves with the ball as time is running out on the shot clock needing to create their own shot, make one of those last second passes to a cutting teammate or knocking down a contested three.

Shots will be there and plays to be made if they come here and buy into Hurley's system. Think about it! Where else can they go to improve their scoring, passing and defense? UConn will continue to be the most entertaining team to watch, where NBA franchises will be watching the capabilities of the players and not so fixated on their individual stats.

That's the role that seems right based on those stats and that's not a bad thing............if his role is firing up our team when they're struggling, and can shoot coming off a screen. Otherwise he won't be Joey II and won't be as valuable.

Watching some of the clips, it looked like he had a solid handle and showed some quickness. He used those to create space for his J but can he use it to do more? He's got good size at 6-6. There's a clip of him throwing it down with authority.

Now maybe he's just a deep shooter, aka Joey Cal 2.0 (though Joey could put it on the floor, drive and dish), but I'm curious if Hurley can mold him into a more complete player who can defend and take it to the basket, and not just chuck it up from beyond the arc.

Now if all he can do is knock em down from deep at a 40+% clip, you won't find me complaining. :)
But I feel we're going be pleasantly surprised to see more from him by season's end than just a 3 point specialist. If he wants any chance of making some solid coin after college, it would be in his best interest to learn to defend, find open teammates, team-rebound, drive it to the paint to knock down midrange shots or draw contact and get to the line. He's got the height, handle, and hops to be so much more than what he's been. He needs to get stronger, for sure. Let's see what Hurley and staff can do to transform him into more if he's willing to learn.

If Johnson and Big Hoss can block shots and be a deterrent at the rim like Clingan was, we’ll be set. We’ve lost so much experience
 
Brea will be a Husky by the end of the weekend.

^Straight from Trilly in his discord. I don’t want to post screenshots anymore because I’ll risk being banned but I am posting them on Storrs Central because it’s behind the paywall. Someone else can post it here if they want to but I’m already on thin ice there from “trolling” Kentucky fans lmao

Oh and there’s an extra surprise in there too from Trilly. Hurley is going for the kill shot.

We have but other teams have too. Purdue lost the player of the year. Illinois lost their best player. Houston lost its point guard. Tennessee is losing Knecht. Marquette is losing the heart of its team.

We would be #1 and it’s not particularly close IMO. Ya ya ya Kansas whatever. Do yall realize how cancerous that locker room will be with Dickinson, Kugel, and Storr? They are a disaster waiting to happen
Expand ...
You'll see most people stick Kansas there based on the fact that they have a potential all-conference player at every position.

But...I think you're absolutely right that the team won't gel in the locker room whereas the Duke team doesn't yet gel logically on the court (and is frankly far too inexperienced for the portal era, IMO).

Huh? Why can’t you post links to Twitter and articles? Links or it didn’t happen as I say.

Hey, you too can just pony up money to pay for a mediocre sportswriter’s contrived fictional internet persona discord where he releases recruiting leaks to desperate CBB fans.

Then peddle the info on free CBB discussion boards for clout & likes!!!
 
I just want this to all be resolved in the next couple days so we can forget all the other portal nonsense and start looking to next season. That and planning which 5 star 2025's we want.

I know this is a thread about Brea, but have you heard anything about Mahaney from Trilly? Also what is this kill shot you speak of
