Per scout we were eliminated from his top 5

Think we wanted him only for 2016 - my guess is that once it became known that he wanted to take a two year mission, UConn may have lost interest as they didn't seem to track him much during July. Also, there's no reason to waste an official visit on a kid you don't want, so I think two year mission was a deal breaker for UConn.
I would've liked Brown over Bailey^ people are still bitching we aren't recruiting brown anymore, surprised those big guns aren't all over the staff for missing out on bailey .
That little two-year mission thing might have something to do with it.^ people are still bitching we aren't recruiting brown anymore, surprised those big guns aren't all over the staff for missing out on bailey .
For the record, that was not me bitching about not recruiting Brown anymore...just stating facts.^ people are still bitching we aren't recruiting brown anymore, surprised those big guns aren't all over the staff for missing out on bailey .
yeah wasn't referring to you at allFor the record, that was not me bitching about not recruiting Brown anymore...just stating facts.
If the staff cools on a particular recruit for whatever reason then I trust in their professional opinion rather than nitpick and speculate
Gotcha...not sure why people still feel the need to question this staff and their strategiesyeah wasn't referring to you at all
Why commit now? Seems weird if you're not going to play until 2018.
