The Kid Has Stones

[Huskybass]

Nobody wants it more than Tyrese Martin. He is quickly becoming an all time favorite. Resolve like Boat and Bazz. When we get Bouknight back, wow!

 

[GHSWolverines]

Indeed. He played like a man possessed.

 

[HuskyBoi]

once he realized that he is too strong and athletic for anyone else he said ima do it myself

 

[calluke]

Must have missed like 10 in the paint. But kept fighting, kept going to the basket, and they eventually fell through. Love the heart and passion!

 

[Tenspro2002]

He's Shonn Miller (another guy I loved) with less touch but more strength.

Big time toughness, you can see why Hurley recruited him twice.

 

[tennmike]

Tyrese is the kind of player Cinci used to beat us with. Tough. He was not going to be stopped by anyone with a DePaul jersey.

Another Dam Breaker for us.

 

[scdono]

Love the kid

 

[MDHuskFan]

When Hurley first got here they kept mention the lack of “alphas” on the team. For anyone who didn’t know exactly what he meant.... he meant Tyrese’s

I am working late tonight and missed game.

What about his yips?

Absolutely nailed it with this take.

Missed a few you'd like for him to make but he was by far our best offensive player

Loved Shonn, but he wasn’t putting the ball between his legs in the paint & taking guards off the dribble to the hoop like Rese displayed today. Similar athletic ability tho.

Still double clutches far too much and missed several but he was a bulldog and totally dominated the game for us down the stretch.

Still there, but hopefully working through them

 

[Dooooooomed]

Total steal from URI.

Shonn Miller if he could play shooting guard, maybe

This is so true. Cinci and Tulsa(lol).

 

[Dutch Boyd]

Easily the most unique player we've had in some time. We have gotten killed by guys like this over the years. Nice to finally have one on our side.

did martin do the "he's too small to guard me" thing after that last lay-up?? love having this dude on the team -- although i suspect i would feel the opposite way about him if he was an opponent, haha.

 

[superjohn]

Couls you imagine if the NCAA didn't clear him for us this season. He's incredibly important to this team and made even moreso with Jackson, Akok and Bouk's health. Can't even picture the team without him.

Agreed. We are very fortunate to have him.

 

[Waterbury]

Steals: Tyrese Martin 5, DePaul 3

 

[Milo65]

Brass stones! Love the Swagger and the muscle underneath. If your an opposing coach, how do you prepare for UConn? Polley can snipe you, Bouk can dominate, Martin can out muscle you, Whaley can out hustle you. The team still haven’t put it together offensively. RJ and Carlton show flashes, Sanogo is so young.

 

[UconnU]

He transferred in to the most competitive situation possible; and now he’s our primary option. Dude just competes and plays with no fear.

 

[UconnU]

If you haven’t seen this... who does he look like here?

[fatlucy]

Total steal from URI.

He would have been a star for them.

He is a Man Among Boys for sure. I loved how Gaffney was pumping his arms when Tyrese scored that big basket at the end of the game.
