Is this going to be one of those live hat reveals?

Please if any valuable information comes up about Javonte Brown Ferguson please make a new thread
 
I'll take the kid Jalen Bridges in the next clip. Jk. Javonte Brown Ferguson needs a redshirt year.
What...u think he's moving up a year to redshirt? You are basing him needing a redshirt year off of a 12 second clip?

Even if he needed a redshirt at the time the video was taken, he won't need one by the time his freshman season starts. Coaches and his motivation will get him ready to play at first opportunity. Reality, UConn needs him to backup Carlton in Carlton's senior year and then start the next year. UConn can't afford him to redshirt.

(Of course, nobody redshirts voluntarily, so it's silly to suppose he would even if minutes were less abundant.)

I'd want him to redshirt, he probably wouldn't play behind Carlton and Springs as a freshman anyways.

I hope so. A kid visually picking the good guys over kansas would be a nice little piece of press.

What are you basing this on? I've only watched a few of his games but he looks like a far better prospect to me than those two.

I watched his games. Though his stats are decent, he's sluggish, he needs a lot of Sal to develop explosiveness so that he can benefit from all of his length.

I trust in Sal to have him ready when Coach Hurley deems him ready.
 
One thing that does concern me, do the kids we’re bringing in share Hurley’s energy, grit, competitiveness? Is this something that can be taught? We lose CV and AG after this year if you look at the roster we have for the next few years the kids are all super talented but they’re universally laid back type kids. Hurley even mentioned at the presser the other night that he may need to address this through recruiting...

Of course he looks like a better prospect in general. But Carlton isnt relinquishing his starting spot as a senior, and Springs will have the benefit of practicing with the team for a year, and probably being much stronger than Ferguson. It also shouldn't surprise me if he's the best of the 3 by the time he leaves UConn. Are you lower on Springs than consensus?

Not low on Springs. I like him but Javonte is just a better prospect than Richie and Josh. NBA frame and length and just a lot more upside, IMO. I'm not as high on Josh as most of the board.

You said Javonte probably won't play next year with us having Josh and Richie, I strongly disagree with this.

I think the right terminology is that he could use a redshirt. But since he's reclassifying, no chance he'll do that. We don't have enough in the pipeline to sacrifice that year of experience anyway

Your posts seem to have a certain flavor of concern.
