Tremont Waters

[champs99and04]

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

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

Thread in two posts.

The only definite in this whole thing is that someone is going to get kasongoed

looks like western Kentucky according to crystal ball predictions, but id rather have the Anderson guy would be good depth, Looks like waters may have issues with pt.
and if he comes here he may transfer

Crystal Ball..lol. crystal balls are not useful until the kid is about to commit

Tremont is a nice, bright kid who has a father wise enough to take all this stuff off his shoulders until his basketball season ended (or beyond)

You can be suspicious of that, read anything you want into or even dis him for it, but it is what I would do for my son.

My guess is he wants a college highly rated for basketball and academics. We check off his boxes but not in a way he would like(ie. Duke)
We meet his needs but aren't his preference (safety school). I hopehedoesn't get an offer from his top tier.

Look everyone is hearing totally different things. You don't have to name your source but if you're not a known poster on this board like 99 tcf zionn etc you should at least have to say how your source is at all connected. This is getting ridiculous.

 

[upstater]

He is going to recommit to Georgetown so that he can become the next Kemba Walker. This is why I am confident the next big we recruit is going to become the next Alonzo Mourning.

I told you crystal ball predictions, Western Kentucky

 

[imno1]

If we end up with Waters it's probably gonna be after he transfers from wherever

I didn't specifically mean you. Lots of people have weighed in.
For the record...crysyal balls are useless. Those guys know as much as I do. Which is nothing.

Now with Anderson coming we will be loaded with guards. I have no information but I just don't see Waters coming here. It would be weird but he may recommit to Georgetown because it may be the best fit for him.

It's honestly shocking to me that our fan base wants to compete with the relevant programs for titles most years but then still holds idealogies like this. If UConn ever hopes to win anything of value in the postseason, we will need to be able to convince a top 30 kid to sign up to compete with a nobody like Anderson. To say we will not get Tremont because of this commitment is basically the same as conceding that UConn will never be back in the title pickture. I've said this dozens of times but look at how our direct peers accumulate, and retain talent.

Hearing uconn and waters are over or cooled off. Staff is focusing on big boys...

Thats oddly relieving.

So you mean we are the one who cooled on him? By big boys do you mean bigger guards, or big men?

Yes ans big men i assume

Big boys... big block shots big boys

 

[AntG168]

Tremonts a good kid. But if he was going to come here begrudgingly then i think we dodged a bullet. Would love to have him but im glad ollie has learned his lesson and moved on

I'm just fine with this. His whole attitude was wrong from a UConn point of view.

Retention has not been an issue at UConn - and don't look now but transferring may have become the thing to do now in college basketball
Yeah UConn lost 3 guys but as quickly as you call a brand new Husky a nobody, you classify all 3 who left as some type of proven talent as well as seemingly have determined the UConn program as now irrelevant
Based on your past posts, UConn is no longer among the top programs, due to KO, so just who are this programs peers?
