Post Player Workouts (Emeka, Diarra, Mo Bamba)

[intlzncster]

Charlie was very highly ranked - Clyde reeled him in.

Boone and Villanueva are about the only two you can give Clyde credit for...and that's with me not knowing who was the lead recruiter on those guys. The rest were pretty much great or developed irrespective of Clyde's involvement.

And CV was a stud, so it's not like he wasn't going to do his thing with or without Clyde.

Lol we are not going to land bamba unless a shoe box lands somewhere.

Everyone knows this. Except maybe huskymagic.

Classy young budding superstar picks Texas over UConn... reminds me of Durant.

No I'm not comparing their games, they're totally different player types, but this guy has Durant super-star potential and is a good humble kid like a young Durant.

I'll be rooting for him, just not against UConn.

You obviously haven't talked to Emeka.

Why are you so angry? Did your boy Tremont not get what he wanted?

Eh, of course he gives credit to Clyde, cause Clyde was here. Someone else would have developed him were Clyde not. Thabeet, Adrien, Edwards, and even Stanley in his own way, developed just fine without Clyde. As did Jake, Travis, Kfree, Butler, et all before Clyde.

Emeka was already on campus before Clyde was hired at UCONN, so he wasn't part of that.

I'm just confused why people keep rehashing this argument about Clyde. Chief thinks he's amazing, everyone else doesn't, can we please move on?

I will always Defend the Wall. Sometimes Chief memes stick. I'll not allow it.

I thought Clyde was great. Big improvement in play of our bigs as soon as he arrived, big drop when he left. I don't know why it's so hard to find a good big man coach but it is.

I'm glad we don't have to worry about Bamba anymore.

I'm also glad that, while most players are focusing on video games and partying, our guy is out there training with both a future lottery pick and one of the greatest Husky big men of all-time. Diarra is our best hope next year. Good to know he is preparing.

What a really cool piece... Definitely going to be rooting for him; great head on his shoulders and hopefully he becomes as good as many think he can be.

End it. No more....close the thread, whimper. I've had enough.
