Sid Wilson Commits to UConn

[TopDogs]

According to Zags, and as we were all guessing, he's got to sit (fwiw): UConn Lands St. John's Transfer Sid Wilson | Zagsblog

 

[gampelcrazies]

I could see him being eligible for conference play

 

[husky99]

TBD

This is what I was hinting at yesterday..

Very needed

 

[UCDaveD]

LET'S GO!!!!!!!!

Huge get! Great job by the staff here.

Hopefully more good news to come this month.

Nice pickup. Welcome to Husky Nation Sid!

 

[huskiesnyc]

This is a huge get for KO and co. Just the start of a very good recruiting month I hope!

 

[Kmba2Rmemba]

Excited to see if he's able to transform his body through a year of D1 strength & conditioning.

All focus goes to Nembhard & Akinjo now? Possible that Cam Reddish is still in play or does Sid make that a moot point?

 

[Stainmaster]

Now keep him off the phone with Ed Cooley until he's moved into a dorm.

On a serious note, this is very encouraging. Our last Top 100 pledge who didn't decommit was Vance back in October of 2015. Hopefully we don't have to wait as long between Sid and the next one.

Reddish is announcing tonight so we'll know shortly. Though I wouldn't expect good news there

Check the Richter scale. I just felt a rumble.

Big get. Unclear status for this upcoming season though, correct?

Almost certainly going to have to sit this season....so a 2018 recruit, as per his original plan.

I could see him being eligible for conference play

Ah, it doesn't work that way. All or nothing.

Welcome to UConn Sid!

Maybe this will turn the tide for some of the more worried fans. I always had "ten toes in" with regards to KO!

keyword almost. stranger things have happened but no sense in getting hopes up

 

[superjohn]

Good start...

 

[UConnSwag11]

i feel like Kansas every year has a player or three that is in trouble and either misses games or comes in for the second half of the season

[willie99]

We got the wrong "Wilson", or is it the wrong "Sid"? I'm thinking there must be a higher rated "Wilson" out there somewhere

Anyhow, welcome Sid, and I'm glad to see our staff getting more hits.

After a run into the 2nd weekend of Madness, it's going to snowball baby

Yes but like I said they are trying

 

[KembaStepback]

Yes but like I said they are trying

Crazier things have happened. Worth a shot. Worst case 2018 recruit. Either way im way in and pumped.

Welcome Sid!

 

[Burnsbros23]

Very nice. Finally some good news. Carey or Akinjo be nice

 

[EBonz30]

One time, finally!!

 

[AdamaNation]

One time, finally!!

Isn't he a slashing high flyer? If so can he and kwintin be the start for phi slamma 2.0 we just got even more exciting. Hope it works out!!!

A year adjusting to college classes, practicing, lifting, maturing, being a UConn team member, and not being in Jamaica, Queens. What's not to like?

To me it's already good news. I know recruiting is not made for moral victory but Duke, Kentucky and UConn Cam's last 3? To those who think he can't recruit I can tell you about a lot of other teams who wish they were still in the picture, and most of them hoping were P5's. Hope he "shocks the world" but no mater, the worm may be turning.
