For all the speculation about who was talking about

Cuse board. Good comment. We’re gonna have size and depth going forward like our championship years.


So UConn has 6’9 Akok (sophomore), 6’9 Richie Springs (freshman), 6’9 Sanogo (freshman) and 7’0 Javonte Brown (freshman) all as underclass bigs this year - now Johnson in 2021. That’s 5 big men already for next year. Then going all out for Clingan in 2022.

honestly kudos to Hurley for convincing 5 guys who can only play the 4 or 5 to commit within 2 cycles. Will be interesting to see if all 5 stick around

Samson is a really high upside prospect. Far from a finished product but he has all the things you look for in a developing big. Enormous wingspan, very good athlete, and has a developing three point shot, shot blocker. Once he gains strength and further development the ceiling is really high.

He’ll be a stud.

Awesome job by Kimani and Dan Hurley..With an assist from Sanogo and LiL Sool!! What else can you say about 2021 class so far but.. "It is what it is".. Tremendous..Completes the trifecta..

When this is all said and done I am going to have to see this ZOOM Presentation that the staff has been using the last 4 months. None of these kids could even visit and still committed.

Can we get rid of this meme?

Testiculo was one thing--this is quite another

I wonder if this is a Marquese Chriss kind of recruit.

Seems the staff got all 3 of their top targets early. They targeted these guys and went after them hard. No waiting for the spring for leftovers. I assume these 3 recruits fit everything the staff was looking for. Feels good to be done so early. If anyone leaves early in the spring then they deal with it then.

Glad and relieved to see Tommy stepping up his game. This is by far his best one yet.

Every time Hurley tweets a Rocky clip.

I heard Finkelstein Say that he’s only been stateside for 2 years playing. Pretty amazing
