Sid Wilson Commits to UConn

[huskymedic]

Based on the timing, it seems like 1 (or 2) of 2 things:

A. Sid Wilson can play the 2017-2018 season

B. UCONN can sue the shiitake mushroom out of USF for cancelling tomorrow's game.

Gentlemen, place your bets.

UConn Football has one possibly two waivers outstanding.

5 wins makes the Huskies bowl eligible is probably 1. What's the other?

Players, players...

If UConn outright sues USF for cancelling a game with a category 4 hurricane barreling down on their home, I will never attend another UConn sporting event in my life.

That said, this has to be Wilson if it's basketball, otherwise it could be the football team pre-applying for a waiver for the five wins = bowl thing.

Ah...our LC Junior College friend? Makes sense.

And FYI to any other posters...I was joking about the whole suing USF thing. Guess I should have used an emoji there.

Exactly. Because it's much safer to be IN the hurricane than it is to be 1200 miles away from the hurricane.

When will the decision be made about eligibility in 2017?

Meanwhile Duke gets Marvin Bagley to switch classes to 2017 and gets word of his eligibility all in about 3 weeks. Hmmmm.

The Blue Devils figure to be the consensus No. 1 team in preseason polls because the NCAA reviewed Bagley's case and determined everything to be above board. Yet plenty of people, including some in the coaching community, wondered how Bagley, his family and Duke managed to pull this off.

"Incredible but not at all surprising," one ACC coach said.

Love to hate Duke? The NCAA and Marvin Bagley III just did your attitude a big favor

 

[husky99]

He enrolled at St. John's.

A waiver would be a surprise and I have no idea what they would base it on.

Very similar to when Kia Wright enrolled at UConn and then transferred to St. John's - there was never a thought that she would somehow be able to play as a freshman.

Hearing the staff thinks he will play. Time will tell.

This team will be pretty intense if Sid Vicious can play this year.

DOOMED THOUGH

I'd be pretty excited if it was football player Kyle Buss too though. Comes here as a WR but at his size/speed he could really help out a thin RB corps.

 

[UC313]

Is Buss the Jersey kid?

Not fixing that ^

No - RMU transfer from upstate NY.

That's actually my thought - it seems way, way too fast for Wilson.

Borges is having a tag sale down the street from me, I'll go shake him down for information and buy a tea pot.

Back in 20

 

[Bryan Lord]

He said doubtful as he backed away slowly. Did not buy one of his autographed books.

You didn't pursue?

 

[CL82]

You didn't pursue?

Disappointing. When you commit to one of these stalks you come away with board worthy news or a restraining order. There is no middle ground.

 

[Bryan Lord]

Does he even still cover us? Anyway tag sale probably going on till 3pm in southington.

247 doesn't have Sid updated for our 2017 recruiting class but if they did we would have the #1 recruiting class in AAC (prev #8) and move up to #50 in the nation (prev #81) .
