Daniel Hamilton "my word is stronger than a letter ... I'm here."

Anyone want to send that to Jeff Goodman? I'll never forget how Goodman predicted Hamilton would renege on UConn and go to UCLA despite Hamilton and everyone around him saying he was going to UConn depsite not signing a LOI.

 

[aceboon]

why are the reporters still even asking about that LOI? Here's here, they gotta let it go.

 

[mauconnfan]

Any times as to when they are out there playing? Might head over to Coop tomorrow to add some more stuff……love to see some practice!

Lets all hope he wasn't getting defensive pointers from harden

Hopefully he wasn't getting defensive pointers from Harden, ft-shooting pointers from Howard, and shot-selection tips from his brother

My god.... I wish I could gain 20 pounds of muscle, then drop 15 pounds in a matter of weeks. Lubin is a freak!

 

[elduderino]

We need brimah to room with rock and hamilton, too, so rock can show them both how to eat!

Hopefully he'd leave some food for them. That guy is bringing the beef! Wouldn't be surprised if he could man handle the both of them in a kitchen confrontation. He's going to be fun to watch.

Excellent. When I was hearing 270, I was a bit concerned.

 

[Kitaman]

Basketball aside, your first day/week on campus is so special. Hard to find anyone complaining about that special moment.

Sheesh - the guy was already a physical beast, wasn't he? Can't imagine what a leaner and stronger version looks like, but great for him!

 

[SixRings]

I'm excited for Lubin. Dude knows what his job is: get boards.
If he puts in a mouth piece before game time I'll lose my mind.

 

[MilliniumPrince]

If Adrien comes home this summer, Lubin may spend this summer in glass eating academy with Professors Adrien and K-Free.

 

[GemParty]

Anybody catch Lubin's comments about Senior FL beast, Young. He watched UConn play that big dude twice, and thinks it would be fun to board against him. Wow.
