2023 Recruiting: Stephon Castle

[husky429]

Absolutely - there's never any guarantees with recruiting, and who knows what will happen with this kid. But the bottom line is no one can second guess the thought and effort this staff is putting into this, and can't ask for much more than that. It has and will continue to yield results - let's hope Stephon is part of that

With the last staff, if we didn't get a kid we knew it could be about effort (and sometimes was). With this staff, if a kid goes elsewhere it's just because we weren't the right fit for them. I can live with that

He’s pointing straight at me. Has to be a good sign for UConn.

Auburn and OSU scare me here. Thouh we did pull out the red carpet for him.

I like the timing of the announcement. Would obviously be a massive addition if the staff can pull it off. When I watch his tape, his and wilchers games look very comparable. No idea how ESPN could not have him ranked.

Seems like a lot of local teams, us & OState. Any insight what the OState connection is? Or is there one?

Stephon Castle and Isaiah Miranda to start off the 2023 class sounds amazing. Size, Athleticism, and Potential off the charts

Not only that. Our mascot logo is right above his head and he is pointing at us. Lol!

Cool parallel there, but even without that DC is very active in helping in the recruiting process. He’s very active in all social media fronts.

Just awesome to see it from our guys, especially a CT kid who’s has never even played a minute for us and won’t for another 12 months. Warms my heart.

Also helped us with AK's commitment

I like the timing of the announcement.

That was my thought. Has to be a good sign that he chose to visit on his birthday and then immediately cut his list down.

Visits on his Bday, final list dropping soon, then top 6 with us in it and then a decision coming soon maybe this month. All this with in the last few days of his visit. Looking good for us IMO.

Could be something but could be absolutely nothing but he’s following a bunch of the guys on the team on Instagram now.

Anyone know where to find the sweatshirt Kimani’s wearing? That thing is fire

Great smile to go with a college ready physique and skills.....hope the smiles of his family mean something too.

Clearly he's committing to UConn:
