Apples to oranges. Andre would've had more points playing in the CCC too.
Hypothetically he would have, but how many people would be saying that the stats were because of the level of competition? These kids can only play who's in front of them. DC is going to be fine when it's all said and done.

Yes, he will be fine. Comparing stats is still nonsensical. I scored 17 a game in the NCCC as a senior, does that mean I'm almost as good as Andre now?
 
AJ showed some special things in his high school career that I'm hoping can translate here. Also willing to give him a pass being a freshman battling injury during a covid year on a relatively veteran UConn team. He showed flashes still and with what seems like will be a completely different role for this year's team.

I'm not writing Clingan off but he's a project and I personally just don't see much from him right now. I don't think he's going to have a big impact until his junior year probably. He has a lot of work to do. It's not comparable with AJ. AJ's high school tape was special. Excuse me while I watch it for probably the 100th time.

AJ and Donovan both showed special things in HS we hope ur translates into even more as their careers move forward long way to go for both.

But please Amida and DC same sentence? Lol the impact will be much more than a career 6/4/2 guy I promise.

Thank you. I honestly don’t want to hear about DC’s high school numbers. What are his AAU numbers?

I mean Amida was pretty damn good here all things considered. Numbers aside. DC could be a better offensive player down the line but unless he goes through a complete body transformation it'll be hard to be close to the defender Brimah was.

Don't want this thread to turn into another DC back and forth discussion. I like Ty's game! Wanted to see what the odds may be that we landed him here if Michigan was out of the race. Thought he can be a great replacement to what AJ brings to the table and for when Tyrese leaves. Think him and Alex can play well together too with the rest of this class!
 
It’s bizarre that out of all the bigs we’ve had come through here this is the one that comments like that are made for.
Not nearly as bizarre as the fact that you seem to be the only one making those comments.

He was ok, worked out fine made a big hoop for sure early on. Liked the kid, worked hard. This kid will get his numbers simply by knowing the game better as he comes in. Nothing against AB but he never caught up on the intricacies of the game, but he made up forsome of that with athleticism something DC won't have but can create in a different manner. I mean the shear size, with work on the body (needed as you say) along with his obvious ability to score the ball and pass the ball already put him in a better place. And he still has a year of HS, now having the ear of the UConn staff as well. You're little respect for the kid is a strange take that's all!

But how many you would have scored if you were 7'1", right?

Genuine question, has he shown this ability to score the ball against similar competition in AAU?

Why do you always change the narrative to vent your dislike for this kid? When did AAU become the measuring stick for talent or potential?

Huh? AAU has always been a measuring stick for top guys are you serious. Especially when they aren’t prep and don’t face a high level of talent in high school. It seems like you’re actually changing the narrative in this case. Didn’t Jeremy Lamb blow up because of his performance on the AAU circuit at the Peach Jam? Guys blow up all the time on the AAU circuit. So what are you talking about?

My perspective is different than yours due to our age difference, possibly. I view it as a bunch of scumbags running a basketball circuit, lining their pockets with sneaker money. Funneling the money to sleazy parents, handlers and advisors while pushing kids to certain schools. And by schools, I mean Prep as well as College. And because DC made the choice to stay in Public School to honor his Mother...who cares how many points he scores in AAU. The only thing that matters to me, and I'm sure a few other people, is that he is bringing his talents and CLASS to UConn.

I mean that can be true while at the same time being the only space where top kids play against each other to have a better evaluation of them unless they’re in prep. I respect his decision to honor his mother but that doesn’t mean he still shouldn’t show and prove the opportunities he gets to play against top guys on that AAU circuit since that’s where he’d be playing other top guys like himself. Maybe he did do that though which is why I asked as a genuine question. But judging off your reaction it would seem like he hasn’t done well.

I’m really looking forward to seeing how he plays at the top 100 camp. I hope he shows out to answer those kind of questions of how he plays against other top guys. But I’m not going to be impressed by the numbers a 7’ puts up in LL where most centers aren’t taller than 6’5.

I don't follow AAU like you and some others on here because I'm put off by it, but if I recall correctly he was the top player in Pittsburgh earlier this year. If there is video of it maybe you can check it out if you haven't already.

I sent him video from AAU the last time this came, forget if it was from KC or Pittsburgh but he came away unimpressed and is still throwing out the same nonsense so I've given up hope. Maybe he'll change his mind with the upcoming AAU events Donovan is playing in since those are apparently the only games that matter

you arent being genuine, you were told he won mvp in his aau tourney this spring

"Clingan averaged 19.1 points, 16.0 rebounds, 6.2 blocks and 5.8 assists for the Spartans at the Hoop Group Spring Jam Fest in Pennsylvania. The team went 6-0. Clingan won MVP."

Please show me where someone posted this.

I love the classic loop of player committing to UConn that we would all have given an arm and leg for and then the weeks-long discussions deep-diving into how this player will never work and how their style play is extremely flawed.

Anyways, let's get Ty Rodgers too.
 
Please show me where someone posted this.
navery said he sent you his aau numbers and it was in that huge thread about clingan that got locked, im not about to go looking for it.

but if you were genuinely curious about his numbers you could have googled it in 2 seconds before just spouting off about his perceived shortcomings.

Yeah he didn’t talk about the numbers or him winning MVP. He just posted the tape from it. I looked into it though, some of the standouts from the event were guys who didn’t even have 247 profiles so…. Do what you will with that information.

I’ll wait to see what he does at the top 100 camp. I would love for him to shut me the hell up.
