@ebosshoops: Per his summer coach, UConn has offered class of 2016 forward Mario Kegler.

Top 35 on most services.

Worth noting that both he and Malik Newman attend the same high school (Callaway H.S, Jackson MS). They don't play on the same AAU team, however.

I meant to say "attended". Kegler isn't at Callaway anymore.

Like his game. Strong look to it, nothing real pretty just gets to the hole. And a nice stroke too.......reminds me a little bit of Poythress, same size and ability maybe not quite as athletic.

I think the Poythress comparison is pretty spot on. I think Kegler looks a little longer than Alex and we can certainly utilize him as a strecth 4. Poythress is a tweener that Cal has no idea how to use because his jumper is below average, Kegler seems to have a better stroke

We have Omar and Hamilton to play the 3 and this guy looks to be a better shooter than the SF's we are recruiting. Of course we are only seeing a few highlights against questionable competition in every case but Kegler also appears to have a very good handle for his size. As one who believes that outside shooting from the 3 is paramount, I like this kid a lot.

He's a 2016 recruit so Omar will have graduated by the time Kegler is a freshman in college, and Hamilton will have completed his 2nd year, which means he might only have a 50/50 shot of still coming back as a junior.

Not to mention he is still a baby. He could still come a long way before he plays college ball.

247 lists him as 6'7" and 195. He looks heavier than that on that video. Hope he grows a little bit taller if he's thought of as a 4, but he was described as a small forward on that site.

New mixtape. If we are still Kegler's leader, the staff should just ignore everyone else and go all-in on him. He's great.

It seems sledteam likes to offer all comers.

Maybe more selectivity?

The hand grenade approach is not working. Hello?

I hope we do not have to hear how all the next wave of recruits and their parents luv the preacher man. That has not been working.

Has he talked about a commitment timetable? If he says we are the leader, grab him ASAP.
