There we go - Silas is back.

[jibsey]

That, and he won't be playing on one leg. His end of the year performance was incredibly gutsy.

You gotta be lucky health wise by tourney time. We got stung on 2 players.

And still came a single referee away from winning at all. It was a pretty good year.

Huge.

And this folks is how you get 79 LIKES in 2 1/2 hours.

Yeah, if your into that stuff 😝😝😝😝

 

[FfldCntyFan]

That means another season of the Demary's, the greatest Huskies family ever.

Silas at 100% with a chip on his shoulder next season, look out.

I'm not saying the Demary's are an alltime great family, but we've had a couple pretty damned incredible families. Greatest ever? Maybe, but a bit early to state definitely.

He’s had some interaction with them through a friend that he mentioned awhile ago, and has brought this up 100x this week so he must have had a good time with them in Indy lol

The closest thing we have to Tristen Newton

Yeah after 40 other people posted first their own threads. LOL!

 

[bigknight3]

The Castles and Big Poppa Clingan have a bone to pick here.

Need to put some respect on Kemba and Shabazz's moms.

 

[305Husk]

Yuuuge

 

[Umami Zen]

Prior to his injuries late in season-Silas was becoming one of our most consistent and reliable three point shooters. Was knocking down clutch threes at crunch time. A fully healthy Silas during the Tournament would have produced a different result in the NC game. Baton has been passed to him by our departing seniors- He is the leader for next year's team. Excited to see how Danny builds the roster around him.

 

[UConnTrumbull]

One reason why the portal rankings are kinda shit.

Silas coming back is like UConn signing a top 5 portal guy.

Wait can we cuss now? Huge news

 

[nelsonmuntz]

Good sign that the portal class is shaping up nicely.

And Newton, while good his first year, thrived in his second. This will be Demary's team, and he will anchor the backcourt on defense, with Ross a defensive stopper on the wing. Just need that frontcourt.

Don’t forget the two huge 3’s against Duke!

 

[UC0NN]

And the greatest deflection in history.

 

[BlueandOG]

This is big for us. He brings a sense of confidence and stability which will help us with other players, current and potential. Let's go!

 

[SubbaBub]

Even if he never played another game for UConn, he was a home run transfer pickup. I expect him to be huge for us next year.

I feel like the 1, 2 and 3 spots are well taken care of. Need to figure out the 4 and 5 so we don't need to hope the long range shooting is on every night.

Tip of the cap to Boatright's mom...

 

[imno1]

I expect Silas to be more aggressive offensively next season. He’s a scorer who was hesitant to look for his own shot. I think that changes. Looking for something around 15 and 5 from him.

 

[kobebeanbryant]

Yea he needs to be way more assertive next year getting his own offense, especially attacking the paint.

He had a great year but was painfully hesitant/deferential at times.

 

[Fantana]

Agree with more offense and need for at least one guard who can take him off of ball all the time will enable him to take advantage of his scoring and driving. Do think he would be better running a mix of on and off ball and think thats what we see next year

 

[Spaceman213J]

Glad he's returning.
Just everybody in the front row better wear a poncho when we play Depaul.

 

[husky429]

This thread needs to have way more responses. We just returned a potential AA.
