Take it for what it's worth (MAL)

[Kemba'sYogurt]

I don't care what anyone says this makes me a little nervous. They got him in before us and now anything could happen when you get a recruit in front of someone as likable as Cooley.

Exactly. But we have a guy named Ollie

 

[TitleTown]

If it was Louisville, I'd worry about the hookers and blow. With PC I wonder if MAL has a fetish for slightly chubby girls feeding him canolis?

They do have The Foxy Lady in Providence! The home of "kegs, legs, and eggs".

I heard that place was awful. Like they have the afternoon shift talent round the clock.

Adams Gilbert and mal all in a row... KO is a friggin beast. Uconn will have the best pg rotation in the country for 2017 , i reckon we'll be up there this year too.

Can we maybe not count our chickens here? If we do land him, it won't be more than a few days from now, and we can celebrate then.

On the contrary, back in my college days, you could be there 4 hours & never see the same girl twice. Top talent.

I'm so glad MAL is coming to UConn. He's going to be great here. Yay!

I must have been misinformed.

I've pretty much been in mal is a lock zone since finkelstein( a uconn grad and probably the most connected New England hoops writer/scout) said he is uconns to lose on natl television

 

[Chief00]

@Chief00 Is Dre in town to host MAL on his visit?

Not sure where he is at the moment - Thanks I will see.

 

[huskiesNhoos]

He's currently supporting rutgers basketball by making appearances on banners

 

[donyell34]

We have had strange recruiting happenings before. Never a sure thing till its done. Crossing toes and fingers.

 

[CardiacAndre7]

I trust the confidence of our insiders over some wanna be 247 type thing.

Rutgers is so excited to claim their future earnings as their own

And you'd always see Mo Vaughn.

 

[CardiacAndre7]

Thanks

DONT YOU duck*IN DARE

 

[BigErnMcCracken]

I'm not going to mock you because, like I said, I don't think you're trolling. I think you actually think you're providing some insight.

Quite frankly, my post was July 23rd and I said not in 2o minutes but soon. I had also said the calendar was September. The steps needed was Ham classification decision, KO back from Team USA and in school session visits. Keep in mind - as HuskyLife indicates - I could still be proven wrong on this - so why don't you wait until a decision is made - then you can attack me for being wrong or it being inevitable anyways.

Yeah, I went a few times back when I was in college (98-02) and it was known as one of the best clubs around. A buddy of mine went to PC and he said he would see pro athletes in their all the time.

 

[superjohn]

Hung out with Mo Vaughn once at the Foxy, Vinny Pazienza was always there.

 

[JMick]

I just can't wait until we get one commit. It always seems like the dominoes fall after that.

Used to go there way back to the ECAC tourney's held at the PCC. Always a good time!

Where's Doris Burke???

 

[FfldCntyFan]

We should give Rutgers a call and ask permission for some of the guys on their new recruiting ad to visit here.

Cooley bringin' in the big guns

I understand why they had him there, but to try and put him up against guards like Kemba, Shabazz, Boat, Marcus Williams, KEA, Gordon, yadayadayada is unfair to Dunn ...Considering he was only their second 1st round pick since 1997, that probably would not put PC over us. The only thing they can offer is a better guarantee at immediate playing time. But MAL will play here. Top 40 recruits play, and are given a chance. A 4 guard rotation of Adams, Gilbert, Makai, and Vital will be nasty.

It's still says something about his importance to PC if they could get Dunn to come back just to host a recruit.

Kris Dunn's story is an excellent and compelling pitch for PC, especially for a guy like MAL who is in a similar situation.

You mean "big gun"? The plural version implies they have more than one.

Of course, no denying that. But apples to apples, PC's guard history pales in comparison to ours in just the last 5 years.

Unless you think PC should have just conceded and told him UConn produces better guards so go there, I don't see the downside in having a top 5 draft pick from the most recent NBA draft there. It can only help
