I was never a fan of Enoch, thought he played matador defense, never knew where to be. At least as a Soph, I didn't think he was better than what we had last year, and if you count his offense, he may have been worse (i.e. he had trouble scoring).

Here context is so important. Enoch’s feet weren’t slow - he was slow to mentally process Glen Miller’s complicated junk zones and confusing man principles. Therefore, he looked slow to many.

These three with the pace Hurley is running.....I don't think so. There was plenty of opportunity for minutes with some talent but mostly with effort. Heck, the team was starving for leaders.
If transferring was the answer, and mediocrity suits you just fine, then you were wearing the wrong jersey to start with.

Yes, Miller was responsible for that position coaching malfeasance.

What i remember and I saw his last game, was that he was put in as a second or 3rd option and got few if any entry passes. Our 25% 3 point shooters were 1st option. he had moves, we all saw those at various points in his UCONN career. It’s a dead horse I know but as he puts up numbers this year it’s going to revisit our board. He had a lot of bashers here.
 
Only saw Enoch once live and was at Tulane where UConn almost blew a 20 something point lead and the one year player from Seton Hall saved our bacon by making a couple of shots near the end. Enoch didn't play much but was completely confused on defense and seemed to be in the way (Hamilton had ball a lot) on offense.
Biggest memory of that game was couldn't believe Enoch looked so lost out there. Had the anti-Brimah body and looked like he should have been a load to play against, but wasn't.
Basketball is not that hard to figure out, I would defy Miller to come up with a plan on offense or defense that would make Enoch look so inept on the court.
Sure Enoch could make a startling improvement, being as bad as he was his two years at UConn was on him.

I'm sorry but there are no M2M principles so confusing that one should look as lost as Enoch did. He was often late or missed the most basic of rotations. Basketball strategy is not rocket science. The kid has poor instincts and no anticipation ability and the speed of the game, even against mid or low-majors, always seemed to bother him.

I saw him in the Hartford Pro-Am in 2015. This was the summer before UCONN, he was on Amida's team back them. Enoch was terrible, slow and could not keep up with the pace of the game. He has the body but has no quickness or instincts. This cannot be taught, you can remedy it by practicing sets over and over again. Steve Enoch was never a hard worker. Instead of going back for more competition in the Hartford Pro-Am against professionals in 2016. He went on to play for teh Armenian Junior team. He them went on to train with his female cousin who owned a gym in Atlanta. It was a waste of a summer for him. KO expects all his players to be self motivated like himself and that was KO's downfall.

Steve Enoch will have a good college career in the ACC. Some of your criticisms were valid but change does happen especially with young Bigs. Kwintin Williams is also slow on rotations and behind the speed of the game mentally, but that doesn’t mean he’s a bad athlete.
Enoch has a big strong body and good hands - he will make his share of shots and grab his share of rebounds. Unfortunately, he did not have better college position coaching and someone who could light a fire under him in a positive way.

Mediocrity did NOT suit them just fine. That's why they transferred. You could argue these three were starving for developmental help.

It's not about the jersey, it's about the coach. And KO was woeful at player development.

KO expects everyone to be self-motivated except for himself. Please go away KO.

It's amazing how people still don't understand this. If KO was out and Hurley was in at that time, they don't transfer. All these kids wanted is to be developed and it sure as hell wasn't going to happen with Ollie.

Vance's dad was a pain in the arse, but at this point, I can't fault him for being up in arms.

Wow this surprises me. I always root for guys who wore the UConn jersey but I just thought he’d barely have an impact at Louisville. Good for him, a CT kid, let’s see if he can keep it up

This is going overboard. Enoch’s style of center doesn’t really fly in the NBA anymore. He’s a true center, a dying breed. The pace of the NBA would also be too much for him
 
Durham will be the one who got away.


Enoch ( flaws and all) we could’ve used on the current makeup of this team but Carlton improving could mitigate the longing for that.

Jackson? Meh.

OK so I go to ESPN and the highlight clip is of Enoch, but with a big time block at the rim. This is like a stone in my shoe.

Your hate for Glenn Miller reads like it's personal yet, you don't know him at all. Everything you post about UConn basketball is made up.

You still can't teach size and skills and Enoch always had them. If can play a lick of defense he will have a legit chance at the NBA. Also, don't be surprised if he can shoot outside as he showed it off when he was playing on that national team.

I think losing Enoch and Jackson hurts. I think Durham I'm not as high on as he doesn't seem to have much of an offensive game and still not sure he will stand up health wise over a season.

Haha. K Chief. Just know everything you post is a lie, at least tell these people you are making things up and have no idea what you're talking about as you've showed many times.
 
always thought Steve was just a late developer. Could we use him? Sure but Carlton showed me enough that says he’ll have the better college career. And with Enoch gone Josh gets all those minutes accelerating his development. Plus the loss of those 3 transfers had a big impact on bringing Hurley here. In the moment I felt they betrayed the team but with time and knowledge I now understand it was best for them to move on. No regrets. We got #4 with KO and now we have the most energetic coach in the country.
