He seems like a good kid, I wish him the best.

 

[Adios]

Good luck, Andre. Looks like Calhoun pretty much told him to get out of here and go to the NBA.

Great kid & tremendous upside.
Good Luck Andre!

Great news for Andre! But of course, Alex O's Dad had to say the last word in the comments section of the article.

What a twerp. I feel bad for Alex, who has to put up with a father who constantly makes snide comments and can't let go of his anger. It's a lesson for all fathers to be gracious and upbeat and teach your kids by positive example.

I responded back to you his tactless remarks. The guy is a big time dick.

Is it possible for AO SR. to come across as a more bitter and jaded individual? Good god I wouldn't want that in my life, because I'd have to keep apologizing for it.

Stupid question.....is there anything to read into the situation that both Lamb and Drummond's decision were released via press release? Haven't all past NBA early entrants had a press conference to announce their decisions to leave?

Maybe I am just old and not remembering past early entrants correctly....but I could have sworng they normally have a press conference to announce the decision.

 

[Gurleyman]

They usually do, but they are usually coming off better seasons with less issues surrounding the program. The UConn athletic department I'm sure doesn't feel it's in their best interests to convene the media and get them asking questions about everything else.

The man definitely deserves "the gas face", my friend...
