Souleymane Diaby is no longer on the roster, but will remain with the program in a different capacity

Incoming?

Incoming?

What do you mean by that?

What do you mean by that?

Yeah, since he was a walk on, his departure is not a sign that a new player is coming on.

Maybe they felt with 15 scholarship players they didn't have practice or coaching time for walk-ons, so they are getting rid of walk-ons. Maybe he'll be a student manager or some such.

 

[Fishy]

UConn has opted into the new 15 scholarship/player limit.

His “position” was eliminated, sadly.

 

[CL82]

What do you mean by that?

I was thinking that they moved him out to make room for someone else but I didn't realize we were one over the 15 cap

You only get 15 roster spots, so it was not a UConn decision to not go above that

Yeah this was already reported which is why I wasn't sure what you meant. They decided to use those 14th and 15th spots on Elezaj and Paunovic. The article did say he would remain in a "different capacity". So I thought you might be alluding to what he would be doing next.

 

[Lafayette]

I hope he gets is CPA and becomes the team's accountants because there is no way he would be a guard coach.

One of the great cinema feats of our time. Excellent work.
