Kofi Announcing Tomorrow

[HawkHusky]

I'll take either one ASAP.

 

[djct1999]

I don't ever whine about dirty recruiting but if he flipped that quickly it's sketchy as hell. Orlando Antigua.

100%.

Or should i say 1 hunnid %.

At least there’s Gaffneys insta post

There goes his dream of playing several games at MSG and Boston Garden. Maybe at Illinois he can play at the Indy Civic Center. I can't believe he wants to go play for a team that will be like 4-20 something in March.

“I can't believe he wants to go play for a team that will be like 4-20 something in March.”
That’s why he’s going to Illinois.

I would prefer Mitchell over Wahab. They’re both 4 stars. Mitchell is built much more like a center which is what we really need.

I very much disagree with that assessment.

 

[Edward Sargent]

With the timing of his visit and the influx of Illinois crystal ball picks, I'd be very surprised if he doesn't go to there now.

Time to lock up Mitchell or Wahab this week. I'd be happy with either.

Also, after watching Montverde play on TV on Friday, I'm convinced Achiuwa can play the 5 in college.

How about Mitchell and Wahab?

“Big announcement tmmrw” doesn’t mean he’s committing tmmrw.....

soooo did he explicitly say he was committing tomorrow or did he just say big announcement tmmrw?

 

[Hurleyman216]

Disagree Mitchell is undersized for a center and has no lift. Wahab is taller and bigger. Wahab is not some beanpole project. He has good size already.

Wahab has a better basketball future.

Whoops good catch. Meant to say Wahab over Mitchell. Wahab is built like a man. Mitchell is built like Whaley

Call me ignorant, but when we lose out on top recruits to schools that dont have the pedigree that UConn does, like in this case with Kofi and Illinois, I think the AAC is a major factor in the decision. I think its just common sense. I know many factors go into a commit, but I just think its way to easy for schools to negatively recruit against UConn because of the AAC.

People will quickly point out Wiseman to Memphis to counter that argument, and I will admit thats a huge positive for the conference, but Memphis is his home. Its very important to keep your local kids home, but if this kid was not from Memphis, theres zero chance he would go there in my opinion.

He did not say he was announcing tmmrw

You ever see a photo of Mitchell?

Based on your vision for Kwintin this certainly is sketchy at best.

I was going to say the same thing Mitchell’s a big boy who needs some toning but has a nice ready body for an Alosi.

I like them both and honestly ones a solid 4 the other can play the 5. Lets grab both.

 

[lange10]

A lot of Illinois smoke right now. Best thing for us would be him announcing another OV.

 

[HawkHusky]

He did say he planned to visit Pitt.

 

[aburks41]

He did not say he was announcing tmmrw

Then were fine. My guess is either an official visit announcement or trimming his list down. No one anywhere has said they heard anything about a verbal from him, or even anything hinting that a committment is coming tomorrow (or today, whenever he posted that)

 

[Hurleyman216]

Saw him play in person a month ago.

 

[UConnSwag11]

He did not say he was announcing tmmrw

What he say then?

 

[JMick]

What he say then?

He said big announcement

 

[superjohn]

Saw him play in person a month ago.

And you think he's built like Whaley??? You need to get your eyes checked.

 

[tuvent08]

He might announce by the time this post reaches the server, but it's also true that he's an 18-year-old kid who loves attention and trolling people. Insiders are only as good as the information that they receive, and many of these kids who aren't trolling are still changing their mind every ten minutes.

 

[intlzncster]

Today is tomorrow. Our insiders' silence is deafening. It's ok to share your knowledge/opinion when it isn't what we want to hear guys.

It's not like they spend their lives monitoring every thread or post on a particular player? Zionn (or whomever) might be on vacation skiiing or something.

Or, their contacts on staff and program are equally in the dark at this point.

Anyway the situation is the same as any other recruiting situation in major college sports: top prospect favors school and strongly hints at committing to staff... Takes another visit.... And everything changes on a dime.

Its the most common situation in recruiting. Basketball, Football, it doesn't matter. Happens to even the best programs (tho rarely Duke)

 

[UConnDad]

Did he mention the dam?

 

[Hurleyman216]

And you think he's built like Whaley??? You need to get your eyes checked.

He looks small compared to Wahab.

Silver lining If you’re gonna go elsewhere do it early so we’re not stuck holding the bag
