Hamilton is going to be Daniels? What?

Way to misquote me and twist my words around. I said "pretty much" thats a lot different then saying "is going to be". Hamilton will have a similar game to Daniels thats what pretty much means.

I'm guessing he means he can be a similar player. Hamilton is only an inch or so shorter than Daniels and can shoot from outside, so it's not a wild idea that they will fill similar roles.

Yes, I'm sure most people understood what I meant lol.

Yeah, I knew what you meant, and you're nuts if you think Daniel Hamilton is a substitute for DeAndre Daniels, who was stretched at the four to begin with. Hamilton isn't a four or close to it. He's listed as a guard.

Definitely a wing (3) in UCONN's system.

But I didn't say he was a 4 did I? I just said he has a similar game.
 
It'll be interesting to see how much Phil can improve his outside shot. Lots of minutes available for him available at the 4 if he can stretch the floor a little.

Problem is, I don't know if we can afford to play Nolan and Brimah together for long stretches. Nolan is our only legitimate backup center, and if we play the two of them together, both could very easily get in foul trouble. Then we'd be looking at long stretches with Facey and Lubin being our frontcourt.

Since the announcement, the only thing that I've been able to think about is: What is Ryan going to say on the mike about the NCAA when he's on the podium next year holding up the trophy?

Should be really good... :cool:

This is what happens two years after you banned us!

A healthy and improved Brimah is huge for us now. Boy would Myles Turner be a GREAT fit now or what? Sorry couldnt resist. Boat,Purv,Tsam and Cassell are going to be a national nightmare next year. Boat and Tsam can cause absolute chaos on defense which will be fun to watch. Are we playing Duke in December? Feel sorry for any freshmen guards that have to face us early next year lol!

You have to find something else to cal him that is not Purv!
 
Thanks Boat! Glad he is back and I think it is best for him.

I love next year's team but don't forget this will be a huge transition. Shabazz, Daniels, Giffey and Kromah will be very difficult to replace. Not only was Bazz the clear leader of this team but we are subtracting out top 3 rebounders and our 1st, 2nd, 4th and fifth leading scorers.

I'm glad our 3rd leading scorer returns and that we will have the benefit of his heart and leadership. And I'm pretty comfortable that we have people to replace the points. I worry about power forward and I hope we get some help there, We have a lot of rebounds to replace and it really is an area we should look to improve not regress.

That said, I like our chances but I assume our team will be much better in March than November. Purvis and Cassel will be older and more experienced than the typical new player. That will help.
 
Boat figured it out late season. He will dominate next year, cant wait! BOAT SHOW
 
Per Woj Boat was determined to enter the draft but after listening to those around him and telling him could go unselected he decided to return.
