All indications are that we’re eyeing Floyd and DCling. We should only have a couple departures. This couod potentially be a smaller class.

Interesting, I always assumed this was gonna be a big class. Adams, Cole, Martin are very likely gone unless they want to play a 5th year and seems like 2 of Jackson/Akok/Sanogo could be gone too

My guess is it’s 4 with a potential late add in the spring, which could be a transfer. I think we’re looking at DC, 2 guards, and a combo forward type who can shoot. It does seem as if our guard choices have started to narrow down though, which should show you where are priorities lie.

just to clarify- do you mean a potential grad transfer to replace bouk? that would get us to 4 departures in 2022 (cole, adams, martin, grad transfer) if we're assuming akok, AJ, and sanogo all stick around

with the extra year of eligibility idk how we can try to predict who stay and goes anymore

No, I was referring to 2022, but that could also be the case this year...so we may end up replacing the 3 seniors, a grad transfer who could theoretically take Bouk’s scholarship this year, and then maybe 1 more opening up.

I also wouldn’t rule out a reclass taking Bouk’s scholarship (although I have no idea at this point who could potentially reclass of the guys we are recruiting), and if this is the case, we’d only have to replace the 3 seniors and then could potentially have another open up in the spring of ‘22.

hmm ok. curious why you are predicting a spring add in 2022 then? who's the potential lotto pick on the team next season like bouk this season?

Ya think? I don't see Jackson or Sanogo as one and done. Maybe Akok if he had a big jump this year, but he's still working his way back to health. Jackson maybe, but I see him on more of a Bouknight trajectory.

I’m just saying there’s that possibility. A lot of things could happen.

This is for 2022 so those guys would be 2 and done, which is why I assume Jackson will be gone. I think he's on the Bouknight path, and hopefully Hawkins right behind him

I like Yann Farrell for 2022. Idk who will be the 4th player but Floyd, Yann, DC are top 3. Maybe Avery Brown idk though.

Lil Sool working in the background for 2022/2023 classes.. Roster construction and PT will be Dan Hurley's biggest challenge now that talent level is so high/deep.. 2020 eligibility rules will also affect roster movement.. I think 2022 roster needs could be slightly bigger than Navery thinks.. Reading tea leaves..Time will tell..

Not surprised. Corey Floyd Jr. seems to have moved up on our list and showed well at the Slam 16. Seems we backed off on Gayle (invisible at the Slam) and likely did the same with Cuffe, and there could be Justice in that.

Floyd was quoted as saying (around the time of the Slam).. That he was told by UConn's staff(during the recruiting process) he was UConn's #1 guard target... Before Gayle/Cuffe announcements.. Tea leaves..

A PC insider on our pay board says that he believes that you guys will get Floyd, fwiw.

Never all in on PC Insiders.. Nice to Hear.. If you know what I'm sayin'.. Corey knows what's goin on in Storrs..

A couple of Rivals futurecasts to Kansas for Mr. Cuffe

thought he and his pal avery brown (who are both pals with clingan) werent good enough for us? whatever hurley thinks is best of course. just seems that from the outside it appears he could be making his life easier re landing clingan. cuffe is gonna wind up in the top 100 and brown is the quintessential savvy borderline 4* BE guard that wins a chip as a senior. woulda been happy with both these guys even if clingan hadnt specifically mentioned wanting to play with them in college.

So we're never gonna get over the yearly panic and questioning of Hurley are we? Thought we might have finally learned after this year

who's panicking? i just reaffirmed that i trust in whatever dear leader thinks is best....am i about to be disappeared in the middle of the night and sent to re-education camp for saying something that could be interpreted as mildly critical of dear leader?

Let’s just take any possible top 100 recruit in all of New England and neglect all other areas to get other ct recruits to want to come here
 
I'm guessing we backed off once Kansas got involved. The kid is very good, anyone who's watched him knows that.

I wonder how much, if any Impact Norm Roberts has on the Cuffe Jr recruitment? Roberts has been an assistant at Kansas for a while now. Cuffe Sr obviously played at St John’s, but he graduated prior to Norm becoming the HC in the spring of 2004. IDK how close Cuffe Sr was with the program after he graduated? But maybe that connection has something to do with it...

i literally said i'd have liked cuffe (ranked higher and plays the same position as floyd) even if he wasnt friends with clingan... and clingan isnt just any other ct recruit lol he's the biggest in state recruit since camby and drummond. so what's my punishment for speaking out against dear leader? you'd have made a great officer for the SS. heil hurley!

Yes, if they're seriously pursuing.

Why? What kind of defeatist attitude is that? Is that what you think Hurley is about? Did Calhoun back off when Kansas came after A.J. Price? Unless Cuffe told Hurley don't bother because he wasn't interested, I'd be surprised, no I'd be disappointed, if Hurley backed off if he liked Cuffe just because Kansas was recruiting him.
