His brother ended up at St. John's. There could not have been anything "high-level" about how that selection process went.

Heh. I'm saying that he and his family will have learned from his brother's experience. They are taking their time, and presumably putting it to good use.

It was a joke. Just enjoy the insult of an old Big East team.

 

[Marbles90]

your opinion on this issue is misinformed to say the least

Hey...At least you didn’t call me stupid. I am gonna count this as a like!!

 

[AdamaNation]

Yeah he has. Jared Terrell at URI.

In highschool, he coached J.R. Smith, Tristan Thompson, and Lance Thomas.

But it's certainly not a trend or something you can hang your hat on.

I knew the HS just not recruited and prepared for nba

 

[AdamaNation]

Already got three 4 star dudes. More on the way .

4*?

 

[Sky ball]

By your guys logic, almost no coaches can ever be known for sending guys to the league. Because most coaches start at lower level schools. Lower level schools don't generally put guys in the league except by accident. Of course there's an unknown.

When you step back, it's really crazy logic to worry about something like that.

He who recruits the most 5* players will get more players in the NBA.

 

[Chief00]

4*?

Let’s not overthink - high potential 3, 4 or 5 stars are the guys we are targeting, who also fit our system. We are looking at Junior College as well. Bottomline, we are getting guys who can help us win not roster stocking stuffers.

Yes, and how many 5* are going to Wagner and URI. None.

Almost no coaches?????????????????
Yeah ok

 

[intlzncster]

Yeah ok

Wait, are you saying most coaches start at high majors pulling down 5*? Because newsflash, that's not the way it works.

The only way you can be assured a guy pulls down five stars, is they come from another high major program.

And since UCONN being what it is, that wasn't an option, if you wanted a legit coach.

 

[Hi-Low]

In 2 or 3 years a lot of the 5 stars will be going straight to NBA or the G-League if they raises the minimum salary to say $15K/month. If an 18 year old can make $75K (or more) for 5 months and develop in G-League then CBB will be in a completely different place.

And this is where developing players will start to kick in. Thankfully, we have Hurley at the helm.

Yep.

 

[Dream Jobbed 2.0]

They posted a picture that very much made it look like he had committed

I’m sure Precious won’t love it either

Is it also a recruiting violation to have current players (Akok) contacting uncommitted recruits on social media, as the poster suggests he should do?

 

[HawkHusky]

Ugh. So bad.

"Man, Dan Hurley and the rest of the staff were doing okay, but what really put me over the edge was @uconncentral's instagram campaign"

We're becoming a really annoying fanbase online. I'm tired of being associated with accounts like this and noescalators

Every school has social media accounts doing exactly what this Instagram post is doing.

Historically, yes, but not recently

personally, I find noescalators very comical

 

[MuchoDogYears]

No news out of Kansas on his OV? It was this past Sunday, right?

 

[Bonk]

Precious just posted this on his snap story lmao. So he has seen the UConn Central post, and some of the comments. Fair to say this comment has sealed the deal, he is headed to Storrs. Welcome baby Apple.
