It means he's so delusional about his right to be angry that because he has decided we WILL lose out on some highly rated recruits that we may or may not lose out on, he has determined that just because he doesn't know what our back up plan is for these recruits it means we don't have one better than KO's signing players with ratings not up to the normal UConn levels. (I could go on and say like, for example, Whaley and Cole, but that would be giving that poster way too much credit for some level of rationality.)

Yep, you nailed it @businesslawyer...
This dude thinks Dan Hurley has the same level of preparedness as Kevin Ollie.
He's also upset we're not closing 100% of top 20 recruits.
But hey, maybe in another year recruits will just write off Duke, Kentucky, & Kansas as options not worth considering because they don't have a dairy bar.
 
A lot of truth. At some point we have to realize we have a great deal to offer, and we should want recruits who want to be here. If they hear our best sales pitch and aren’t interested, then on to the next guys. I want guys who want to be here.
agree, we don't have to settle for being someones fall back anymore

We want these guys which is why they were offered. But if the love isn’t reciprocated then you have to move on to someone else. Historically we have found many great players that were not 5 star recruits.

Guys who want to be here are guys who are willing to do what is necessary to win championships. Be careful what you wish for

What am I speaking Spanish!!! What do you think it means!!!
Obviously it's not Spanish. You were clearly speaking Trollish, anyone can see that. As for what I think it means, and I try not to speak for others on this board, it points to you being an idiot. I mean, come on, do you read what you write?

Hurley is abysmal at winning close games. Now he is abysmal trying to recruit after a championship. Hurley just got paid and he seems to be on vacation while others are at work. I’m not amused. We need more than two recruits for next year’s class.

It's pretty obvious you're not serious. Not sure why some people are taking your posts seriously. But I think your schtick has run its course. Not funny anymore.

Can't blame gthe coach for the whims of a 19 yr old, 18 yr old or whatever. Bring bigger bags next time.

This post is so bad. I dont post here often but feel compelled. 1st of all it's UConn. Not an acronym. 2nd you say 'we' but are crazy critical. They just won the title!! You must be a miserable person to be around...
 
Not hearing great things here btw. It sounds like we are still a ways from a decision which is good.

A 2 man class after a natty would be really deflating.

Not after we just brought in a 5 man class. This was never going to be a big class

Of our 12 scholarship players, Newton and Cam Spencer finish up and Clingan, Castle, and Karaban are projected to enter the draft. That's losing all 5 starters and having 7 returning scholarship players, 6 open spots. This will end up being a big class, if not through high school graduates then through the portal.

probably losing at minimum 5 players. Hurley has never been huge in the portal, so I guess I don’t follow your logic.

Point taken. Though I think projecting Karaban to enter the draft is a bit premature. I also don’t view transfers as apart of a “class”. In the transfer era I think we see less big classes than before anyway. One thing I’m not worried about with this staff is recruiting. I think “deflating” is rather strong and dramatic
 
Clearly with several players with eligibility being unknowns in terms of the draft (i.e. Clingan, Castle, Karaban) using the portal to fill needs will be the best game plan once a key high schooler or two determine whether the class would be more than 3 incoming freshmen or not.

Diarra will also likely graduate, though will have eligibility remaining if he wants to return.

No idea if it's actually how Hurley feels but we'd have 1 senior, 1 junior, 4 sophomores, 2 freshman so it does feel like there's potential to get really unbalanced with a ton of freshman coming in again

Probs 2 portal players.

He's kidding around. He's been doing this for a while. It's not funny anymore so just ignore him and maybe he'll stop.

We brought in Newton, Alleyne, and Joey C. last year. I assume we’ll end up with at least one more recruit, but seeing what the freshmen can do this year and picking up 2-3 guys from the portal based on that doesn’t seem unreasonable.

2,man class is fine after fab five, good luck with your career at party city. Sorry to hear they are bankrupt and your balloon blowing career is in jeopardy. Must be deflating.
