Sydney Wilson Dom Amore Article

[Son of Robert]

Good article in the Hartford Courant on Sydney. Gonna play a big role this year.

Can someone post the actual article, thank you in advance.

Another of Hurley’s hires, Sal Alosi, has worked closely with Wilson to add some muscle to his very lanky frame. The results are noticeable; Wilson said he weighed in recently at 180 pounds, eight more than where he was at the end of last season.

Up to 180. Dear lord.

Up to 180. Dear lord.

How big is the average wing in college?

How big is the average wing in college?

According to the BY, you’d be led to believe they should look like nose tackles

How big is the average wing in college?

Bigger than that. 180 is a perfectly fine weight, if you're 5'11". at 6'5" I'd like to see him around 210-220.

Not 6'7 180. That just worries me for injury.

Jalen is 6'3 195, for comparison.

Up to 180. Dear lord.

At least he's up. I wish they said what he weighed coming into UConn from St John's. I wonder if he gained any weight all last year

 

[HuskyHawk]

Very good article. Love his attitude. He's going to do some very good things here.

And Jalen needs to be stronger.

I like his emphasis on New York. Preach to the recruits, Sid.

Hmmm. Last year's roster has him at 183. Loosing weight? Hopefully gaining muscle.

"Wilson, too, could be the shooter the Huskies have lacked."

Really?

UConn's roster weights are about as accurate as what I tell my wife I weigh when she mentions I look a little heavier.

Yeah that quote didn’t make sense to me.

 

[HuskyHawk]

"Wilson, too, could be the shooter the Huskies have lacked."

Really?

He's a perimeter player. If he can't shoot, he isn't going to play much. I know his reputation out of HS was not as a shooter, but he's been practicing with the team for a year. Hopefully his 3 point shooting has improved.

3 games at MSG?? when / who?

Nevermind:

11/15 MSG Syracuse
11/16 MSG Oregon or Iowa
12/8 Pru FL St.
12/22 MSG Villanova

 

[Uconn92387]

3 games at MSG?? when / who?

The 2k Classic vs. Syracuse and the winner of Iowa/Oregon and then Villanova.
Also Florida State in New Jersey

Great article. Well written, informative.

 

[RichZ]

Article about Sid, but the best line in it was about Hurley. "Hurley wants Wilson to be stronger, tougher, more dynamic as he tries to take players who came to fit Ollie’s designs and make them fit the new mold. "

I date myself with these comps, but what's the chance he 'fills out' into a Malik Sealy-Richard Hamilton-Tayshaun Prince type of body, basically a skinny guy who makes it?
