I've seen posted on here multiple times that UConn has never gotten a recruit that Duke wanted. We'll see if the Huskies can break through here.

If there's ever a recruit it happens with, this seems like the one
 
Thanks. I'll remember to mention these 2 the next time someone says we don't get guys that Duke recruits.
 
Wouldn't it be more relevant to compare our recent sucess against Duke? Don't really think Roscoe or Daniel's have any bearing on Hurleys battles with them.

When RS and DD came here we were a "name" national power with a legendary coach so, even with the legendary "K" at Duke, we had a chance.
No legends here since 2014, but if Dan Hurley continues the uptrend in wins and recognition, doors will open wider.
Plus, for all the talk that Scheyer will easily assume the mantle he has never been a head coach and, even though the legend chose him (as with KO at UConn), he'll have to win big right away or he'll be de-throned as quickly as Matt Doherty at uNC and Steve Alford at UCLA.
It won't even take losing seasons for a change to be made, unless Hubert Davis struggles at the same time
 
Let's see if AK has been taking notes from Sool. Seems like TBB has Brewster teammates/AAU teammates with UConn "leans".. He'll continue to attract offers from top programs but he's sayin' all of the right things about his vibe with UConn.

Helps that we were in early with TBB-Seems like a kid who will put value on that

For the most part, Yes, but the post was in response to someone who had written "never."

I'm willing to accept that consensus that Duke prioritized Ewing or Ben, but there is definitely some story that gave rise to my prior impression and that of others that Ben chose UConn over Duke.

Can someone provide greater clarity here?
