Tre Mitchell in the transfer portal

[ucawn]

We recruited him out of HS, wouldn’t be surprised if we got involved.

 

[the Q]

I guess coach and mom broke up....

 

[Hey Adrien!]

When was the last time to players with identical names transferred in the same offseason?

Low-key happy that my "joke" thread materialized to actual news. After reflection, my bad for that thread!

 

[HobokenHusky]

Imagine being able to have either him or Sanogo on the court at all times.

Or the bright lights of Amherst and the A-10 were too much for him. But, based on his stats and dependent upon the reasons for the transfer, we might have a spot for him.

Certainly would like to have him on the roster. He put big #s up vs Dayton, Richmond, and the other good teams he played last season. Not sure he'll want to transfer and compete with Sanogo for minutes though. Regardless, I'm sure the staff will be making some calls.

 

[Phoenixhusky]

He would be a great fit at Uconn!

 

[HuskyBoi]

15/40 on threes this year too, I wouldn't be against this

 

[Tenspro2002]

A big man who averages 19 and 7, and makes 3's and FT's at a high clip, and can pass (2 apg)?

What's the catch?

His mom.

His mom.

Is Kimani single still?

You know you’re a dork when you get excited about his ft% and block and steal numbers.

I’m in. Sign me up.

Who runs a matchmaking service in storrs to help out mom? Lol

 

[Dooooooomed]

yes please.

 

[superjohn]

He's a total no brainer for UConn. Looked like he was going to UConn out of high school, is playing down the road and I would imagine is looking to play right away at the highest level of basketball and to play in the tournament. We're only positive that Sanogo will get us easy buckets out of the frontcourt next season, Josh replacement with much more game than Josh. As long as he's no longer a package deal with that assistant this makes so much sense for UConn and him.

 

[GetTheFacts]

He's a beast. Should be the number one transfer target of UConn.

 

[TRest]

I watched him a little this year, he needs to get in the weight room but otherwise has great skills.

I think he could play next to Sanogo too. With him Sanogo, Akok, Martin, Samson Johnson, and springs we’d have the best front court in the big east next season and one of the best in the country. If our backcourt gives us anything we’re cooking

 

[Hey Adrien!]

yes please.

@the Q, seems like your work here is done.

[ConnEd]

Watched some of his highlight clips from this year. He's skilled. Pretty good footwork. Can use both hands in close. Nice stroke on his J. The main question is whether he's strong/athletic enough to produce against higher level competition than what the A-10 has to offer? Will he step it up when faced with more resistance? And, I've seen nothing of his defense, so...

 

[Tenspro2002]

Really? He's listed at 240. Or do you mean he needs to trim some fat?

I've only looked at the numbers, but he seems like exactly what we need in a backup big, or maybe a 4 alongside Sanogo in a big lineup (Whaley replacement).

 

[UConnSwag11]

Imagine being able to have either him or Sanogo on the court at all times.

Don't forget Whaley has the option of coming back too

 

[husky429]

He isn't capable of playing the 4 except against very specific types of teams... Georgetown comes to mind. He is pretty much a traditional back-to-the-basket big with a little bit of catch and shoot ability. He doesn't have the lateral quickness to cover 4s at all. He's probably slower than Sanogo.

Sanogo is a traditional back to the basket big but whenever I've watched Mitchell he's versatile on offense, makes a lot of jumpers.

 

[I Bleed Blue]

Sign him up Danny! Or bring Whaley back. I would be happy with either tbh.
