Tremont Waters

[6xChamps]

Serious question though, where can he go? I think WKU is out of scholarships, Creighton is probably gonna get the two UMASS guys. Don't think any of the big dogs want him (Duke, UK, Kansas). I guess he could go to Georgetown but kinda a weird move after decomitting.

Us having 4 really good guards without Waters

Jalen is awesome, Alterique is awesome if healthy but there is certainly a chance he might not be as good as we all hope next season, it's sometimes hard to get over those injuries and they claim you only get back 80% of previous movement. Vital is a good player, a nice third guard and Anderson is the fourth leading scorer on a 10th place Atlantic 10 team.

Waters would absolutely make us a better team next year and would alleviate a lot of the concern going forward, Jalen will be gone after next season.

Agreed. Would much rather have tremont than not. But I also think we'll be fine without him next season. But not landing him makes landing a high quality guard for 2018 a must

Everyone forgets how quickly kids change their mind. Recruiting changes overnight, one phone call, and everything is turned upside down. If Texas calls Sid Wilson, and tells him he's guaranteed this, that, or the other thing, he could commit tonight. I know people don't believe that, but it's true.

That's what scares me, everything points to Sid coming here but we've shown a total inability to close lately. We need to lock him up ASAP.

Am I the only one who wants the kid to be fired up enough to drive himself to Storrs?

I spoke with old 00 this morning. There is good news and bad news. The good news is we gained the letter 'd'. The bad news is we lost the 'm' and half the 'e'.

With Tremont, the "ME" is what some of us were worried about, so that's perfect.

 

[reddevilhusky]

Not sure where he's going. My source is someone close to Tremont, but I can't specify. I know it goes against a lot of what's been put out there, so grain of salt.

Hmmm legit sources vs chief with his CONFIR_ED who to believe....

 

[Huskyforlife]

Well Jerry is a reputable recruiting analyst, and he picked us very soon after my "next." So who knows.

It'd be nice. But in our current situation, I'll take a kidnapping and entrapping for 4 years. No shame.

 

[UConnSwag11]

Really hoping people stop assuming he's coming here and wait until he announces. We've been down tho road before

 

[Chief00]

LOL -
Chief stays out of the drama and has been consistent throughout. On this one not sure if the nineth letter (d) will come before he announces. But, I have only gone in an upward trajectory to 89% + while your "legit" sources are basically the flavor of the day on twitter.

I don't think this will end up being a lack of "closing" it's the kid making a decision which will either swing to his parents wishes or close enough which would be UConn. At that point the staff is up against it don't ya think, and they're doing everything they can to swing him their way?

Jerry is an avid reader of the boneyard. Knowing Jerry like I do, my assumption is he picked us solely on your 'next'.

 

[KingAG]

The good sign is this pick isnt based on a visit so maybe he's hearing something good.

Was just thinking the same thing, he must have heard something from Tremont camp. Let's hope this is the case, and he's not just assuming since their "seems" to be limited options like the rest of this board

That could also be the case, i hope he wouldnt base his prediction on an assumption
