Exactly. Kinda glad the season is ending soon. Ride the positive mojo into next season. Let the injuries heal. Get back 3-4 more players. This was a huge success of a season. Now if we do get an NIT bid but Sid Wilson isn’t back, does Hurley opt out of the invite? Matt Garry is out for the season we are down to 7 Schollys and one walk on
 
Well for postseason play. Obviously we're now on a fantastic long-term trajectory

I was thinking about this (what to do with an NIT bid) a week or so ago. It would probably lead to a heartfelt conversation with the team. If CV and possibly AG really wanted to play postseason, would Hurley shut them down?

Jelly fam was a "movement" started by some NYC kids to put NYC basketball back on the map. They were big on social media. Their signature move was making layups much more difficult than they should be. None of the kids panned out on the high major level unfortunately.

From his IG earlier today

Kinda cryptic - young man has had a tough few years - losing his mom, going to St. John's to be close to home, hating it, transfering to UConn where he wanted to go to begin with, having to sit out, the coach he came to play for getting fired and then just never seemed to fit in. I hope he finds some happiness and peace with himself.
 
Heart breaking really. Loses his mother, gets screwed by the NCAA and has to stop playing basketball. I would imagine having to sit out and watch a team from the sidelines isn’t the best place to grieve.

I don’t know what he did to get suspended or what he’s been doing all year, but folks with a “good riddance” attitude don’t have their priorities in line.

Hope Sid is able to figure it out.

His 2nd suspension, I believe?

Hurley’s references to Sid have been less than glowing recently, so I wonder if this has been building for a while or due to a recent occurrence. Disappointing that he just has never figured out a way to build on his insane athleticism. I would imagine his future here is very much in doubt

Remember Hurley's post game press conference a few games ago where Hurley was going through the box score and praising most of the players about how they've improved and are good building blocks for next year? Didn't mention Sid or Alterique even after scanning the box score again and saying something like, "Yeah, that's everyone." (something like that). You could tell from that there was something going on.

It's disappointing. For Sid and for the team.
 
This is his third strike right? There was the first one under Ollie, the second which led to the long suspension last year, and now this?

Really unfortunate. I had already kind of written him off as a meaningful contributor for this year and maybe next too. If he couldn't get PT with our line-up situation as it stands right now, the prospects moving forward seemed bleak.

Dude is a highlight machine though, and always seemed like a likeable kid. Hope he puts it all together one day..

I have been rooting for Sidney Wilson, hoping that he would put in that extra level of effort, fly right, and stay on Hurley's good side. He was right on the cusp of it before he injured his knee. I really hope this situation works itself out, for Sid, for all his brothers on the team, and for the UConn program as a whole.

Blessings Sid, I hope you set this right.
