Trey Patterson to announce June 18th

[Huskyforlife]

Honest question, how does a kid set an announcement date without already making up his mind?

He's gotta be at least 99% sure, unless some wild under the table stuff gets offered outa nowhere.

A kid can be sure and just convinced to change his mind. It happens all the time

 

[UconnU]

Everyone I’ve spoken with recently strongly believes he’s heading to Nova. I don’t think this is going to be another Jackson/Sanogo type steal.

It can, I wouldn't call it likely.

Wright has given this recruitment a lot of attention. I do expect a commitment this month.

Pretty bold prediction (specifically on the commitment date) in a thread in which the recruit himself states he is committing next week

Yeah so do we all because he said hes committing this month and that is what this thread is about.

This will not be like Sanogo. There is no intrigue with Tyler Phommachanh

I remember you, used to visit the Nova board a lot as a lurker. I used to pull for all the big east teams but man Nova fans really hated us. And I'm from Pa. so I liked Nova some but man it was like the hatred of 1,000 flaming hot suns against UConn!

I wonder if Nova fan base will be a little friendlier this time since your squad is on top of the cbb mountain???

It's my Mom's Birthday too. For real.

Is Trey Patterson your mom?

 

[formerlurker]

Is Trey Patterson your mom?

Unless he's going to be celebrating his 76th Birthday on the 18th and is celebrating his 55th wedding anniversary to my Dad today, I'm pretty sure they're two different people.

 

[huskiesNhoos]

LOL - Chess vs checkers but maybe I wasn’t clear. I was predicting a UConn commitment in June.

That's hands down the most succinct and specific thing I've ever seen you post. I love it

 

[Huskyforlife]

Drummond reclassifying and coming to school in a couple months was about as specific as they come.

It's gotta be Patterson then, nobody else is committing.

even more specific than the dam breaks in september?

Luckily I saw that coming from miles away and screenshotted the original so it will live forever

A few people also quoted his post before he edited.

The free board is mostly mayhem. It can be like an Internet roast.

 

[Scot-e]

Lord.

 

[uchusky32]

Lord.

Yes.

I had already ingutned others in the conversation tool. I agreed not to share the Big East infuriation publicly due to football impacts and communication that needed to be resolved.

You can’t please them all. I personally thought your “Confirmed” method was about as clear as anyone can hope for. The thread locked and a week later we had a commitment. Before that it also showed where things stood before we had a yes. I would take having a dedicated group of trolls as a badge of honor.

Because of CT social distancing basketball rules and not the usual summer sessions - it’s difficult to also do evaluations on the new guys coming in. Who plays together well, etc? I think it’s very challenging. And remember guys reclass or transfer so there’s not really a fix population pool we are looking at.
Recruits look at the roster and since our best players are in the last 2 classes - they may not see as much playing time here as somewhere else.

On the other hand, since our best players are in the last two classes, I can see recruits buying into the notion that something special is happening at UConn and wanting to be a part of it.

We have to work so hard to achieve that. I can tell you Creighton has been at it all along non-stop. Marquette and Butler are now practicing full guns. We can’t keep putting our coaches at such a competitive disadvantage and expect the results we all want. FACTS.

Stop ruining every recruiting thread with this, we get it

 

[Palatine]

Big East giants Creighton, Marquette and Butler. There is no reason we shouldn't own this conference.

 

[ctmike35]

Patterson to Nova is all but done.. Nova seems to be backing off Longino because they are in a great spot with Keels.

If you don't think these teams will be tough - you are living in a dream world

We practically do and we haven't played a game.
