SG Hamidou Diallo (UConn Offer)

[I Bleed Blue]

My sources indicate that if he receives an offer from Duke he's going there...if not we should be safe.

how credible is said source?

Good point. And on the converse to my previous post, continual recruiting after the commitment probably contributed to Prince Ali backing out.

Do you mean that KO didn't continue recruiting PA enough after he committed?

 

[phillionaire]

Who are your sources K and Nate James?

Want?

I NEEEEEED IT!

We kept going hard after some big name 2/3 guys, higher profile than Ali, and that might have put him off. Just speculation. I thought I heard that he hadn't heard from UCONN in a bit at one point.

I know this might annoy some posters, but can someone with a twitter tweet at Jerry Meyer and ask why he made a UK pick for Diallo? Like i want to know if he thinks he has intel on that or just assumes anyone who Calipari wants will go to UK. Like I don't even think they've offered yet and we obviously have the upper hand and positives on our side.

It's because Calipari visited Diallo two days ago. That's it, IMO. Don't lose your mind over these crystal balls - there is a long way to go til Fall '17. There have been recent requirements in which our posters have been far more clued in than the national guys so let's hope that continues.

The crystal ball has long been known to be useless.

Durham proved Jerry Meyer's individual opinion is useless.

That is really not fair. Meyer was proven worthless long before that.

I really think that his picks are nothing more than some algorithm based on a Southwest and JetBlue flight schedule.

This is the guy we need..

You don't say...

If it's outside shooting that UConn lacks, well then everyone will just need to work on it.

Larrier, Enoch from the elbow, Durham, Gilbert, Adams, etc., 500 shot a day.

KO is answering the questions people raised about the staff's ability to build recruiting contacts. It took a little time, that's understandable, but now by all appearances we're tight with Mass Rivals, tight with PSA...that's a lot of prospects on a regular basis.

KO has a plan, he always has a plan. And since he's a very smart guy, the plan is usually pretty good.

Indeed. That said, I want to see how we do with Expressions Elite's new gang:





Pretty sure we haven't landed one of their kids since Olander. I'd love, love love to get Waters & Samuels.

Bear in mind that I know absolutely zip about recruiting, but aren't we out of the Waters sweepstakes?
