2024 Recruiting: Liam McNeeley Reopens Recruitment

[Hey Adrien!]

We never offered, but he’d obviously be a wonderful fit, as he would for any team.

 

[runner11]

Sounds like he is already a done deal to KU

 

[husky99]

Yes please...

 

[ScottCT]

Not happening.

 

[Staven]

Not taking the bait still recovering from the Cooper Flagg announcement

 

[UCTitleTown]

Reel him in. He can be our Cooper Flagg-lite....or maybe Duke needs a 5th 5 star in 2024.

 

[UConNick]

KU was apparently in it to the very end before he originally chose Indiana. Would agree they probably have the inside track.

 

[connVA]

I guess Self added another zero to the end of the check

 

[BigTenFan]

IU has plenty of money- He probably looked at Woodson coming back and weak roster for next year and knew it was a bad fit

 

[auror]

He would fit in incredibly in our offense. Probably a long shot since we weren't involved originally though

 

[UconnU]

He’s like a create-a-player for our offense. Offensively he's far more advanced than Flagg.

 

[uconngb]

I guess Self added another zero to the end of the check

SMH

 

[Obthree]

Reel him in. He can be our Cooper Flagg-lite....or maybe Duke needs a 5th 5 star in 2024.

He’s going to shore up Cooper’s Championship Run Next Year TitleTown. I bet SLAM and everyone is hounding him right now. HAHAHA

I want him to go to DIKE and Cling Kong to come back to us Next Year for a RUN IT BACK x3

 

[Chin Diesel]

If there is never a basketball player named "Ian" at UConn, I'll be okay with that.
Bartender at a pub? Yes. Snooker? Yes. Highland Games? Yes. UConn basketball? No.

 

[MilliniumPrince]

I wouldn't count out Texas

 

[CL82]

We never had a Cam before this year either. That seems to be working out OK.

 

[JungleLobo]

Who wants a freshman when Hurley’s biggest talent is finding 6th year super seniors like Joey California and Yell at Clouds Cam

 

[UConnSwag11]

Kansas

If this guy starts posting on the women's board, we need to ban him. A lot of fragile cardiac health over yonder

Cam is a 5th year, not 6th year. His sophomore year he actually only played 5 games because of an injury so this is really only his 4th year of college basketball. But I wouldn't expect you to know all that since you're not a UConn fan.

 

[IndyLives]

C'mon Danny. Throw some big NIL money at him and reel him in.

Yeah those were huge mistakes by Hurley

 

[QDOG5]

Every team has to "add a 0" with the NIL. Kansas didn't suddenly outspend Indiana. The kid de-committed because he didn't like the direction Indiana is heading.

 

[Penguin]

This kid is very good and UConn would be perfect for him. Would love to see it happen

 

[UConnJim]

Supposedly, the Indiana offense hasn't done a good job of creating 3 point shots. Kansas (or UConn) is a better fit for his game.

 

[Stew Crew]

If the last 2 years has taught us anything, cultural fit is just as important, if not more important, than skill level. In the current team, I see two potential lottery picks diving for loose balls (clingan's dive in the Marquette game might be my favorite play of the year). We have not always seen that (ref 2006 team of prima donnas). If UConn didn't heavily pursue this kid, I would have to wonder if he would really be a good fit culturally.

 

[QDOG5]

Woodson basically on a one year prove it contract next year.

Supposedly?

 

[ctchamps]

Woodson basically on a one year prove it contract next year.

I'm wondering how much consideration in keeping Woodson for one more year was based on not losing McNeeley.
