I think they have. There aren't a ton of stud recruits from CT. The premise would be better if you said we need to focus on recruiting the best kids from CT, MA, RI which I think we have been trying to do, at least sometimes. Who are the highest rated CT kids of recent memory? Waters, Heron, Enoch, Drummond. Not too many, I am sure I am missing a name or two.

Wasn't Murray a top recruit FWIW? Before my time, but I am not sure that is the example for avoiding unused scholarships.

I played pick up with him on my team, we were getting smoked until he took over....and then I took the ball, motioned for him to clear out and took the last shot. Even though it went in, he looked at me like what????

Earl had a great sense of humor.

How about someone like Tyler Olander. Would Ollie have offered Olander? I just did a google search, here's a 6 8 center from fairfield prep who averaged 20 points and 15 boards. Do we even look at someone like this? maybe as a preferred walk on? Put him in the weight room and redshirt him.

Next.

Murray's nephew Jordan, he left College Park too early and now might be in jail. There hasn't been many at all in recent years but Cincinnati is really hyping up Cane Broome.
 
Two of Waters's teammates at NDWH committed to day, one of them to Canisius. Maybe this is the week.

Cane Broome is going to make us cry next year. He actually plays ALOT like Waters.
 

Friend of mine did a piece on Waters last year. After spending a day with the kid he told me Duke and Kansas were his top choices ..... and UConn was way down the list

Would love to have Broome now as a depth piece but he is going to have serious limitations. If things were normal in UCONN land he would not be getting serious minutes. Things are obviously not normal.

He's a 32% 3 point shooter who averaged 3 AST per 40 minutes. Waters is going be better in both areas.
 
I saw Cane Broome play at East Hartford several times. Amazing how he has developed.

Well.

Broome is a six-foot tall shooting guard.

In a low-major league, he managed to pass the ball to the other team more often than his own.

6' Russ Smith turned the ball over a lot his first few years. And then his upperclassmen years he ruined us every time we played UL.

Things change. A year in recruiting is a long time. Ask Glen Miller.

If it's truly between WKU and UConn then Storrs is a no-brainer for a 3 year type player. If he has 1 and done aspirations then who knows otherwise 3 years at WKU sounds like a nightmare.

No, no, no. Didnt you hear? If youre a one and done you go to Uk because Calipari is the best at getting guys to the NBA with his incredible coaching. :rolleyes:

Blew that one big time not once but twice.

I know Pat, last he told me was that he's doing a postgrad year then headed to Columbia

Either Cronin and the rest of the people at Cincy are like Calhoun with the offseason superlatives (Ajou Ajou Deng) or Broome has improved. They say Broome is being given the keys and they are making Van Exel comparisons.

He's not going to be Van Exel but I expect him to be good.
