2025 Recruiting: Nate Ament

[JerseyAlum]

You take who commits first.

Yeah, bird in the hand, or Husky in the snow better than on in the wild.

Some of these high recruits who put Spring '25 as the decision dates definitely are waiting to see what players are likely to leave early which clears the way to starting in the Fall. So if JStew goes off this year, by the Spring those recruits know he will be gone vs staying and helps their decision process. I am sure a lot more goes into it, but that is definitely a factor.

After getting Adams, Reibe & Mullins … could the staff make a hard push for Ament or Bundalo
Personally would rather Ament which would be insane not a slight to Bundalo which would also be great but getting Ament would be overkill

Ament really wanted his shots in the Elite game I watched. He is clearly a great talent but Bundalo is close in impact potential and a perfect culture fit. I got the sense that Ament is more comfortable as a 'go to' guy than as a piece in an offensive system. To add either would complete an embarrassment of riches. My pick would be Bundalo for the size mismatch possibilities

Word is Ament is planning to sign during the late signing period (April 2025). If Bundalo wants a spot, I'm not inclined to turn him down on the slight chance we can get Ament. Ament looks like an amazing talent, but there's no reason to think he's interested in UConn besides a few kind words he had about Hurley months ago.
