Tremont Waters

That's what I thought as well. If he's everyone's plan B, they'd at least call him.

I remember Kuran Iverson talking about Kentucky being his top choice when it seemed clear they had no idea who he was.

I Don't even care about a pastrami rueben (wait, I'd probably love a good one, but just don't think of it after marked widespread drop in pastrami quality in recent years notwithstanding some good here and there, such that anything more than mustard on the side is an upgrade and not a sacrilege most places), and I'm out of this thread until the decision is made.

If Tremont Waters wants to come to UConn, then I really want to watch him and would imagine good things. Yes, Tremont, please join the Huskies.

If he doesn't want to come, then the Malik Newman analogy fits best, whether it works out that way or not. Nothing more to see.

And @djct1999 you never answered my question as to whether you'd like to see him in a UConn uniform or not. Sticking with, "It ain't gonna happen," is beating a dead horse. We get it.

I am indifferent on Waters. The kid is talented so I will never be disappointed when we add talent. But there is enough that surrounds this kid, that I don't see a long, productive future here. Also, he makes our only strength, stronger. Doesn't truly address a need. We can win with the backcourt we have. In other words, I don't care either way.

Tremont sounds reasonable in that recording. But he doesn't know much about his own recruiting, seems like his Dad is in control.

First kid I've seen who couldn't even give a list of schools recruiting him.

watching @tcf15 UCONN vs Florida FF highlights and I am convinced Ollie wants to play just like the '14 team.

Which is why Vance Jackson is making a HUGE mistake leaving. He could flourish as a 4 in that system.

If Polley can put on some weight before the season starts, I can see him getting a lot of minutes by the end of the year. A perfect 4 in our system.

You should care, the kid has Lonzo ball type of passing skills and he will make everyone else on our team better because of it. I could see Ollie going to a very exciting up tempo offense with the guard depth we would have with Waters. HUSKYMANIA would be back! and maybe we even get one for the thumb.

It Is never a good sign when a kid confuses people telling him on Twitter to come to their school versus an actual school recruiting him. Juice is not worth the squeeze. Pass .

I think vance would've been a much better version of Giffey but it is what it is. We need three point guards minimum

Could be set up by family to allow Tremont to focus on bb and separate him from the nonsense that goes on around recruiting. I mean it's not like the kid has a Boneyard ignore option. Most fans and reporters fit the description of the average poster in this forum. Kid knows exactly what's going on and this is the method used to push most of the crazies to the sideline.

I don't claim to understand much about the process but from his quotes it sounds like he's enjoying the attention and might wake up tomorrow and choose a college like he chooses which cereal to eat for breakfast.

Zing! Go Royals!

I think TWs recruitment is essentially in his fathers hands. He didn't even know the coaches names, and is talking about Twitter.

Kid obviously loves the limelight, but I think dad is trying to protect him from the sharks so to speak.

I can't imagine W. Kentucky being an option. Once Mitchell leaves after a year, Fremont will be stuck there. If he's interested in fame, that is not the right school.

My guess (not an insider) is that he will be in a uconn uniform by default if duval goes to Duke.

 

[tentoes4rings]

What an impressive, articulate kid. Diarra allegedly is a high character kid, in this video Waters seems to be as well. Would be excited to have both next year.

 

[LoveMeSomeUC]

If this kid loves the 'cuse twitter I'm certain he will enjoy a 41 page boneyard thread begging him for his services.

So did Roscoe. I don't think he has the speed to play the three either. Have it your way and good luck.

No such thing as a better version of Giffey! He was perfect!

 

[intlzncster]

Anybody know a good place to get a pastrami reuben?

Sam LaGrassa's
Financial District, Boston

Do it.

 

[Jimmy Serrano]

Take this FWIW but I'm hearing 2 things: Gtown is in front by a lot and he is not coming here.

What??? Outside shooting man. We have none.

He's a classic tweener

Met a source today who said that Uconn is a very strong possibility for Tremont
