Tarin Smith (Grad Transfer)

[AntG168]

With Smith and Adams visiting I think that has to mean we're not super confident about Lecque

Could be. Tho BField said as early as this morning said we didn’t pursue Cremo as hard because we were confident

 

[HawkHusky]

I trust in our Boneyard Insiders.

yeah people still seem confident so I don't know what to believe. It's just odd unless we plan on playing 3 guards 100% of the time

It could be that the package deal isn’t a requirement for Lecque and we prefer Brendan Adams over Silverio

it's a real possibility. but then why have a sixth guard in smith? unless there are zero bigs we're on for '18

Is smith a Grad transfer?

There is no way Lecque reclassifies to be on a team with six active guards.

Maybe these guys won’t commit on their visits, but we are by far both of their best options so I’m sure they’ll want to.

yes. I don't know why you'd want to grad transfer and potentially be the 6th guard

If nobody transfers, we have enough bigs, especially with a small lineup most of the time. I'd actually prefer a more pure Wing player.

 

[AntG168]

These are good problems to have I guess. I much prefer these problems than those of 3 months ago

Have we actually offered smith? Maybe he's visiting, but he knows he's in line.

Offers generally aren't reported for transfers. Bringing him in for an official visit is as good a sign that UConn wants him here.

Six guards, two wings and five bigs sounds ok to me given Gilbert's injury history.

 

[uchusky32]

Got to take into account Gilbert's injuries and if Lecque is as good as advertised he will be on the floor.

Hamidou 2.0 everyone has There hopes up. Besides rummors Is he ever on the record saying he’s interested in coming into class of 18 and how is it even possible?

 

[navery12]

Maybe Dan Hurley is taking the first one to commit even further, and he's bringing them both to campus in a race to commit from the same room

 

[Hans Sprungfeld]

This is the 2nd time in a week I've seen this particular mixed metaphor on the BY. Bad juju, and not good for MOJO. Don't be casual with your idioms, people.
Review:
Dominoes fall: This means that a series of events is set into motion, one triggering the next, in unstoppable fashion. Typically is associated with something negative. Example - As soon as the stripper began to sing like a canary, the dominoes began to fall, and Pitino was doomed.

Pieces fall into place: This means that various individual events occur that, in the aggregate, result in an overarching effect. Typically is associated with something positive. Example - Immediately after the hiring of Dan Hurley a top notch staff was assembled, several high profile athletes committed, and other non-obvious pieces fell into place to assure the resurgence of Husky Nation.

Is there a fat chance or slim chance that this explanation settles things for all time?
Will someone answer, "I could care less."?

He is. You can find multiple articles about it on this brand new website called google dot com.

Yea because articles from 5 months ago are useful? Freshman are reporting to UConn in 2 months I would think he should make his plans clear soon, the fact that we have 2 guards on campus show Hurley’s level of confidence. It’s a dream, wake up he’s not coming.

I'll take this as the best sign yet, because you're pretty much batting .000

Andre Drummond announced he was coming to UConn on August 26th a few years ago. Two months is an eternity in the recruiting game, and to be honest he really has 4+ months to decide.

You haven't been right about a single thing in the last 4 months, so I'm pretty confident now.

Andre was from CT?? Also visited the school. Also wasn’t in an era where social media covers everything. I don’t know why people think we can get this kid we couldn’t even get kids ranked this high under Calhoun.

I’m guessing on this one considering we haven’t landed a recruit this high since Drummond. Who was FROM CT.

Did you get this from the same source that told you Ollie was coming back?
