I wonder how he and his dad are feeling about that transfer to Louisville now? No Pitino and most likely no post season play. Tough break for the kid.
Gets a like for fade into Bolivian. I always thought it was fade into Bolivia.meh, I'm interested to see what happens with Louisville, but I don't really care if he fades into "Bolivian" (as Tyson would say).
Him, Jackson, and Durham all struck me as incredibly entitled guys. Enoch had McHale's moves but couldn't finish to save his life. Durham looked tentative. And none of them played defense.
Enoch made his choice, he's gotta live with the consequences.
I still can't believe how many missed dunks he had. It made no sense.
I don't know if they keep records on missed dunks but his missed dunk total or missed dunk average has to be some kind of record.I still can't believe how many missed dunks he had. It made no sense.

Vital was recruited by Louisville and was down to Louisville or UConn when he committed to the Huskies in April, 2016. He said he saw no illegal or unsavory activity during his recruitment and visit to Louisville.
“Coach Pitino and the whole staff did everything the right way,” he said. “It’s just an unfortunate situation. I have some friends on the team who are a part of that program.”
One of them, junior forward Steve Enoch of Norwalk, transferred to Louisville last spring after leaving UConn.
“He’s doing all right,” Vital said. “I’m just telling him to keep his mind in a good place, don’t think about all that chaos too much.”
Don't be petty. Kid made a bad choice but I hope he lands on his feet – wish him nothing but the best.
And in a better world, he'd be getting ready for his redshirt freshman year as a Husky. Oh well.
Yup. If he stays healthy he'll be a stud for ND.Durham was the one that bothered me. He would have been perfect for UCONN if he stuck it out.
Agreed, Enoch just doesn't have "it." "It" being the intangible that makes people great competitors and maximize their potential. Vance Jackson could shoot but was lacking the athleticism to be an all-conference type of guy but I definitely think he could have been very productive. Durham, I really thought that guy had the potential to be big time all-conference or even all-American type of player.That's what should have happened from day 1. Everything might have turned out differently for Steve.
Durham was the one that bothered me. He would have been perfect for UCONN if he stuck it out. It was expected for him to be tentative as hell after 2 years off. I expected what we got.
But his upside was tremendous. The atmosphere last year wasn't great, so that probably contributed.
It probably would have been better if he redshirted as well, but I totally understand why he didn't want to, having already sat for 2 years prior.
