Does this mean the grind has now stopped?

Nope.

Bouk ain't 6'6 and Adams ain't 6'5.

Maybe true but their 6 “and 5” respectively taller than Bazz who allegedly was 6’1”

There is nothing to wait and see on, it's just one or two yard members under new handles having some fun at the expense of Chief. We aren't a realistic option for Cliff O. in '20 or '19.

Huh... thought we offered the kid. Are you frustrated with the newbies having fun or is the kid’s mind already made up and he’s a “next”? Maybe both? Lol idk anymore.

Based on what? Who is a better option for him in '19?

Or read his post. He is commenting on the kid's 2019 options, not UConn's

Kentucky, if they want him in '19. If they don't want him in '19, he won't go '19.

For that to work he'd have to be Imno2

Nope, I still think it was the right thing to do. But it doesn't matter, Hurley didn't think so and he'll build the program back up this way

It's fine that Hurley didn't want to give the appearance of running off KO's guys.

But I hope going forward that he's willing, with his own recruits, to have frank conversations with kids who turn out not to be cut out for this level, especially with how prevalent transfers are these days.

The last thing we need as a program is to have scholarships tied up for multiple years in guys who we know aren't going to give us anything. JC was great at this (except for making sure the academic boxes were ticked on their way out) without being malicious or exploitative.

I’m in the side that thinks DH handled this almost perfectly. There is a difference between having tact and being a pushover. I have no doubt that DH can have the tough discussions as he demonstrates consistently that he is tough, passionate and quite boisterous. He is definitely not soft. Not saying you or others are saying that but he is following his path of integrity which I think will pay off with better recruiting down the road.

It ain’t easy

And it ain’t funny!

But we will always have the urinal moment - LOL

 

[Chief00]

Chief, Is their any truth to any of these rumors? Even a little?

The Grind will pay-off. Step 1 of this chapter was this week. It will require patience.

 

[Chief00]

Awesome! Thanks for the great answ..... I tossed a like your way to help get that L/M ratio up a bit.

Thanks but no need to.

But it’s a matter of the next step. Anyone who’s paid attention to Hurley knows that he can be pretty honest and blunt but is also a good communicator. He’s had those types of conversations with players over the years- laid out how he sees a guy’s abilities and if or how they fit into what he wants to accomplish as a coach. He’s pretty much said I don’t see how you get minutes at this level. That’s a pretty frank conversation.

If a guy chooses to stay anyway, there’s two ways to handle it, and that is where opinions vary on what is the appropriate next step at the collegiate level.

He was jumping up and down he was so excited about Calapari offering him a scholarship to kentucky. I don't have a great feeling that we are getting him to huskies.

Lol.. Chief still bending spoons.

The grind never ends. If someone is looking for something easy that requires little work - try something else. Cheering on the coaches to close step two this summer.

Yes sir! The Grind Continues!
