Without and data to back it up, Alex Oriakhi and Roscoe Smith come to mind.

Weirdest play by a UConn player: This or Dan Orlovsky running out of the back of the endzone?

He must have seen 1 not 11....but seriously that was Webber timeout bad.

Carlton was good for Houston. Both sides helped him move on to a place that would really work for him.

It’s water under the bridge now, but Floyd really listened to the wrong people.

I mean, Floyd would have stayed on the bench here. He would have been recruited over so at least he gets starter minutes but yeah being on 2 national title teams vs playing on the dumpster fire that is Providence is a decison

Curtis Kelly at K State had maybe the best post-UConn transfer career

He got way too heavy here - wasn’t happy and just put on a lot of weight. He dropped like 40 pounds at K State and was just much better.

I really disliked Josh Carlton's game for us. He was just a bad fit and it worked out great for everyone that he transferred. Sanogo and Whaley balled out for us and Carlton had a good senior season for Houston.

There isn't a single UConn player who went elsewhere I wished stayed at UConn.

He got jerked around here. They made him gain weight, they made him lose weight. It was so dumb. Samson just put him on the floor. That worked better.

Roscoe was way too crazy for JC. Olander was nowhere near as talented but JC seemed to prefer the known vs whatever Roscoe might do. I really like Smith and was sorry to see him to…we didn’t miss him though.

AO was just circumstances….his best friend, Jamal Coombs-McDaniel basically got kicked out, Drummond came in, he sulked about his role, blamed everyone under the sun for his troubles and then the NCAA banned us from the tourney. We didn’t suffer there either.

I’ve actually met him since - genuinely nice fellow.
