i mean the constant rescheduling does look very weird. it's not out of the question that programs see this as unprofessional.

He’s been marketing UConn clothes holding his brand new newborn, in the hospital. Weird would be an understatement.

5 stars are never bad for culture in a program that's all about winning.

If you look at the way Hurley builds a roster, he disagrees. Roughly speaking, DH likes to bring in one, maybe two, five star studs, two or three developmental players and top it off with an experienced portal player or two.

Basically depending on the open scholarships he will break up the incoming class along the lines of the above. Plus, from a culture perspective, he looks for players that come from a solid family, not too many hangers on or a posse. He also highly values players that will sacrifice for the team.

Why are reputable sites taking his word as credible and a voice for the program? Where did he come from? It’s insane
Why are people at this site treating him as a credible source? Where does this come from? It is insane.

Yes to what he values, all true, but I don’t think Hurley has a number limit on 5 stars he’d bring in. He has a culture limit. If he could bring in 13 5 star kids with the attitude of Steph Castle he would do it.

I don't get the hate for this kid. He's weighing his options. If he chooses us, great. If not, then we have other options. I wouldn't say we don't want him. We absolutely do.
We would all be ecstatic to have him - protective mechanism of some fans called the emotional hedge.

This is like the hot girl who you’re trying to get to go on date with you. When you can’t get it you take the nice girl out and say I didn’t want her anyway ;).

Isn’t it like two people who have had something negative to say?

Yea I just think most would PREFER Lewis at this point
If Lewis is ready to commit here, then I want him. He’s a quality player and most guys take the bird in hand approach over the two in the bush with all else being fairly close.

Unfortunately there is no indication of this. He's got 3 more visits to blue bloods to go.
