how much clearer could i have been? him playing in nepsac and not at norwalk. This summer circuit is nice, but if he were to perform well consistently vs sophisticated coaching i would be more convinced. he sort of just came out of nowhere thats why im weary. not that it matters, any of these bigs work in ollies scheme.

So out-playing some of the elite bigs this summer isn't a good enough body of work to convince you? I hope we land him.

I trust coach Ollie and his staff much more than someone who sits at home and critiques players from a far.
 
Size, skill, athletic ability, and rapid improvement (indicating hard work and love for the game) are enough at this point, and he's shown those. The rest is coaching and KO can provide that. He's not going to show anything in NEPSAC that would discredit him.

People that watch him play high school ball in Fairfield County say he doesn't have heart. But the talent is there - I trust KO to lock him up and show him our ways.

Come on Steven, let's get this done already! Can't wait to root for you 10 years from now when you take timeout from your lucrative NBA career to play in the JC Charity game!

UConn remains in the hunt for the former Norwalk High star who will play at St. Thomas More this winter. Former Husky and USA National Team hopeful Andre Drummond attended the same prep school and was coached by Enoch's AAU coach, George Matthews, growing up.

"We have an official visit, I think it's planned for September along with a couple other colleges," said Enoch, 16, who seems to attract a new college seeking his services every time he fires up another 3-pointer.

"It's nice because (coach Kevin Ollie) was in the NBA a very long time and he was a really good player," Enoch added. "He knows about basketball and he's a good coach -- a great coach."

Enoch took an unofficial visit to UConn in June, but is also generating interest from Memphis, Oregon, VCU, Virginia and Providence among others.

"I might be deciding really soon," Enoch said. "I don't know when, but it's just a matter of really wanting to go somewhere."

I like our chances against these schools (especially Oregon, since Enoch doesn't seem to have a crew of funky handlers). Although I sure would be pissed if Cooley swooped down and picked up another CT kid.

Tremont Waters in 2nd of the 3pt. Keep em both home!

I really want Enoch , seems like a player that keeps on getting better. I was listening to Gottleib show one day and he was asked who was the player that was he most surprised in while playing AAU ball. He said Paul Pierce. Pierce was a chubby back up center that made himself into a player and Enoch has same potential.

Breakdown: Virtually unknown outside of his region as a high school junior, Enoch was terrific in the spring and summer, and is a consensus top-100 recruit nationally as a result.

The big man should increase his profile even further, as he transferred from Norwalk (CT) to the regarded prep school program at St. Thomas More.

Enoch parlayed his spring play into invites and attendance at the highly-regarded Pangos All-American camp and NBPA Top 100 camp. He is reportedly a late blooming post prospect, who has come on strong as of late. As a result, there’s plenty of reason to believe he’ll continue on the same trajectory going forward.

To no surprise, Enoch has accumulated armfuls of scholarship offers. His home-state program, UConn, will not doubt work hard to stave off numerous foes for his college services.

Is he basically saying 'I really want to go somewhere and will make it official soon but I don't know when.'

Or am I misinterpreting what he's saying? Sounds like he knows he wants to come here and he's just going through the process out of necessity.
 
For him to be hanging around the UConn fam so much and not commit to us would be odd. Hope he does it soon so I can stop worrying then add Stone and whoever else then we be all set.
 
It will be interesting to see if he actually visits any other places between now and September. If he doesn't, it's hard to imagine him not committing during the official visit.
 
Since he is new to the limelight, I can't blame the young man for enjoying some time being wooed by major programs. After a little of that, he should make the clear choice for the perfect fit UConn offers.

Us missing out on late blooming CT bigs (Camby and Vin Baker come to mind) sucks, but it sounds like we are playing this one right.
 
Really think this kid will be a beast in college. Esp year 2 & or 3. Upside Upside Upside. Very very skilled. Love his game!
 
And his whole family are UCONN fans. It would be strange if KO wants him and he went elsewhere- more strange then Price Ali bailing after we won a NC because we are not loaded at the PF position unlike the 1-3.

I really want Enoch - I hate it when we let homegrown studs get away from us, especially in this case when he is in our backyard and a UConn fan. I believe it's not a matter of IF but a matter WHEN he decides to commit to us.

I think the only way we don't land him is if he decides after Stone announces and he chooses us, then Enoch may be a bit wary of coming in plus our staff might not want two bigs
 
I like having CT players on the team. Including T.O.
 
Steve Enoch
PF, 6-10, 220, 2015
Norwalk High School (CT)

Only 16 years old, Enoch is a bouncy forward who plays with great activity in and around the lane. He runs the floor exceptionally well, but can also step out and knock down the 15-foot jumper with consistency. Enoch runs the floor, can spread the defense with his jumper, and rebounds with urgency. He’s also a terrific on-ball defender, with the athleticism to alter and reject shots in the lane.

Enoch has had a meteoric rise this summer, and he continued his strong play at the Big Strick. He should continue to make headlines as he looks to develop a true post game. Everything else—size, rebounding, mid-range shooting—is already there.

Staff not wanting two bigs is not likely. That's like saying you have too much starting pitching... not gonna happen.

Umm yea I realize that but grouping PFs and Cs together as bigs for argument sake. Look at the frontcourt we will have returning: Brimah, Facey, Nolan and Lubin. Are you going to add two more bigs to that group?...maybe but I don't think so
I think they land one big, a wing and an SG (or combo guard). It all depends on how it shakes out and who we miss out on - I'm sure the staff has their preferences but it will be dictated by the recruits that we have offers out to, not the other way around
