Best of luck TN! We know who is the best PG in college in 2023!

Good luck Tristen!

Ah…

 

[KingAG]

We can take a break for about a month now. We won’t have clarity on our roster until the end of may. Go on vacation lol

 

[lange10]

For the inevitable sky is falling folks a reminder that we won the national championship 16 days ago.

Go get ‘em Newt!!

 

[navery12]

Just like Andre, this is the logical decision. Get feedback and if it's not what he wants to hear, come back. Congrats Tristen

 

[3rdbass]

Ok so now we know about what his Twitter post meant "2". LOL! Him and Jackson to declare for the draft.

 

[MDHuskFan]

For Dre & Newton, guys who haven’t tested the NBA waters yet. This is by far the most logical decision. Even if they don’t stay, they’ll have tons of guidance on what to work on as they prepare for the future.

If they get good feedback, they go & as fans we should be supportive

 

[BuffaloHusky]

There is at least a 50/50 chance he comes back and probably a little worse than that for Andre. We will be fine next year.

Don't understand the concern about guys leaving. Go look at our roster chart from last year at this time. I think we had about 6 players on it until all the new guys committed. Every other team in America is also having roster turnover.

 

[LIuconn]

Good! Hope he gets an opportunity to make a roster

I wouldn’t say fans are “concerned”. We just won a natty. BUT this is much different than last season. We’d be insanely young right now. And we should prepare for some growing pains. It’s a problem you want to have. You want guys getting drafted

 

[Jaydumo20]

I know this has probably been said but it seems like most teams that win the natty from here on out will face similar upheaval.

 

[imno1]

I love TN but I don’t see NBA in his future. So the real question is has he had enough college?

 

[MDHuskFan]

2 years ago- Dan really needs to get some guys into the NBA. The only way to get NBA level players and a good team here is with him showing he can get guys into the NBA.

Now- National Champs & guys declaring for the draft.
Boneyard-Sky falling & everyone losing their mind

The carpenter has some work to do.

 

[bendm]

good for him.

at this point it's whatever i guess. dreams of a repeat were greedy. thank you to all the players. i hope we have 4 guys drafted this summer.

i can bask in the glory of #5 for another few years.

 

[Marat]

So why did Alleyne go ?

 

[HungryHuskies]

When do these guys that maintain eligibility need to make a decision by

 

[uconnbill]

he can play overseas at the very least but I can see him in the D league as well.

Good luck either way

 

[AdamaNation]

So why did Alleyne go ?

Re-recruiting is fluid. How long have you been here?

 

[XLCenterFan]

Why do I feel like I’ve been taking gut punches all week?

Too long.....

In Hurley we trust!

If the past has taught us anything, Hurley the carpenter will get Huskies ready to play when the season starts!

 

[navery12]

So why did Alleyne go ?

He wanted to start, which wasn't gonna happen here

 

[Connecticut13]

So why did Alleyne go ?

Gotta think there’s a decent chance both Newton and Jackson come back. And the staff prob thought they’d get Timberlake too until Kansas made some last minute moves.

 

[bendm]

He wanted to start, which wasn't gonna happen here

why do you say that? as of this moment Ball and Stewart are both projected to start and alleyne would start over either. we're all assuming Hurley knew these guys were entering the draft arent we, so i'd like to assume he also knows they will both be returning lol.
