Rakim Lubin Has Signed!!!!

[3uconn]

His coach just told me that he sent in his papers!

 

[tcf15]

Great news. Thanks, 3!

At the risk of blaspheming, Mary's got a keen stare making sure Rakim signs those papers while Baby J. appears to be rolling his eyes.

Can't wait to see him in action! Hey, has anyone seen Mama Lubin around? I know that she was posting on the board a while ago, but I forgot what her "handle" was. Anyhoo, welcome to the entire Lubin family from Husky Nation...

Welcome Rock!

Rock's signing very important now with DD declaring. He will probably back up Facey at the 4.

I expect the minutes at the 4 to be as follows:
~25 min of Facey
~10-15 min of Lubin
~5 mins or less of small ball with one of our guards (D-Ham/Omar) sliding to the 4 but obviously not playing as a traditional PF.

He looks like an absolute beast. Will be nice to have a real bruiser in the post to complement what we already have there... Welcome Rock!

I could not see his shirt because his guns were in the way. He certainly will bring a big body into the mix next year.

Kid wants to be part of the next national championship at UConn. Welcome aboard.

And when he gets here, he gets to work with the prototypical undersized but solid muscle UConn power forward.

 

[Fishy]

I don't want to nitpick, but I would have insisted on some gray and red piping on that cake.

UConn's swagger meter just jumped.

Awesome to have (as Corliss Williamson said) a man in the paint.

He's 6'8" and built like Hoover Dam.

That's his left hand. Is he left handed? I've always felt it's a notable advantage due to people not seeing it as often. Plus I'm left handed so it's always fun seeing fellow lefties!

 

[SixRings]

Welcome RK.
Dudes gonna bring down a rim.

Sweet Jesus!!

I believe he plays with his right. A lot of guys write with their left and play with their right. Ex. LeBron, Gary Payton, etc.

I like to picture Jesus with giant eagle wings, and singing lead vocals for Lynyrd Skynyrd with like an angel band. And I'm in the front row, hammered drunk!

Hey 3, got a question. Does KO specifically recruit devout players? If so, it seems like quite a model for getting players with good character

I want to hear "Gimme that !"

That I doubt. However, when talking with recruits a bunch of them are very religious. I know Will Jackson is.

OK. Either KO is recruiting them or these devout kids are attracted to KO.

 

[Strummer]

The pen looks about the size of a crayon in his huge hand.
Did San Diego recruit him?

 

[Adios]

I am impressed his "Jesus" has blonde hair!
