Liam McNeeley COMMITS to UConn (Merged threads)

[superjohn]

If he's looking for a PG spot, he may not be interested in Storrs. Nowell is really good. So it Diarra if he returns.

It's probably going to take Nowell time to adjust, it pretty much always does with freshmen point guards and he's not nearly as advanced as a guy like McNeeley is at his position.

We would be stacked but there's absolutely room for Mahaney and it's probably our one spot of need going into next season. A third ballhandler who can score and take people off the dribble.

It is good to be King!

Anyone doing minutes projections before Alex or Hass officially make their decisions is rushing it.

hold my beer. threepeat dream scenario:

Diarra 25 / Nowell 15
Mahaney 25 / Ball 15
McNeeley 20 / Brea 20
Karaban 25 / Stewart 15
Reed 20 / Johnson 20

Bench: Ross / Abraham / Singare

a legit 10 man rotation. is it even possible? everyone needs to sacrifice a bit. Ball, Stew, and Ross in particular might not be happy but after we three-peat the team is theirs.

IMO- Nowell is more KEA than Gaffney. Year one will have to share minutes with Hass. See Aidan(if he commits)as more of a CG that can share secondary ball handling ala Cam. Not as a primary PG

Who's next ?

Hopefully mahaney

Please don’t compare nowell to gaffney

 

[Umami Zen]

Please don’t compare nowell to gaffney

I didn't

 

[Fan1978]

I think Mahaney would start at PG. Doubt he’d commit to be a backup.

He is more a shooting guard

After spending several working hours this week refreshing the Boneyard I took a break today. Jump back in tonight and what a present!! Love that we’ll get to continue the long distance call celebration next season. What’s get! AK, Diara, Brea and Meheney my top 4 wish list list for next season in order.

 

[Fan1978]

I didn't

Fair enough, just seeing him in the same sentence made me vomit

 

[JungleLobo]

Just put a 6 pack of Rolling Rock on ice

Sorry, you’ll get a new job soon. Hang in there.

That's exactly why I said I see him more as KEA talent than Gaffney. The kid is a baller. Junk yard dog

It's definitely time for a smoked bourbon.

Shock or Slick?

Overnight another. The new one looks damn near impossible to break though...

He's actually more Shabazz and Boatwright than he is either of those guys.

Between him and Mack truck point guard Ahmad Nowell, this has to be one of the most exciting recruiting classes in UConn history.

Add to Jaylin Stewart’s size & Solomon ball.

Another McDonalds All American? How many does that make?

 

[Huskyforlife]

Isn’t Mahaney and Diarra a small backcourt? Especially without an elite rim protector to back them up?

 

[Bboy Lace]

It's crazy that we're in a position to go for a 3peat. It's crazy! Unbelievable ride we're on. Greatly appreciate our coaches!

I'm not gonna name my next kid Danhurley.
It has a nice ring-

[UC0NN]

Dan new nick is "the Closer" Mariano anyone?

 

[UCTitleTown]

BTW. Secondary benefit of Liam's commit to UConn. Opening up access to Montvedre players for the future.

And giving LM an outlet to trash talk CF.

It's taller than Diarra and Nowell.

Cam Spencer and Jordan Hawkins but in an NBA body, I guess that works for me.
