Tyler Betsey to announce today! (Commits to Cincinnati)

[Hey Adrien!]

The writing has been on the wall for this move for a while now, so nothing else to do but wish him personal success and good health for the CT kid.

Poor kid, what could have been

Hey, not every kid dreams about national championships

 

[kobe]

 

[CL82]

Congrats Kobe. He's a nice pick up for you guys.

 

[Mr. French]

If it helps you score more?

Double entendre perhaps missed, but nonetheless I'll root for Betsey to score for whichever university he represents. I don't have a connection to him, just seems like a good kid and player.

 

[nomar]

Bad take, per usual. You put together the best team possible. There's no room for a petty grudge in this sport.

Also his analogy makes no sense. More like freshman prom to junior prom. It’s good to take a kid who’s already been developed. If Cam Spencer had previously turned us down, would TheHorde have said not to take him for the 2023-24 season?

 

[alphasigko]

He can always enter the Portal!

 

[Get a Job]

So you don't get fined?

 

[TheHorde]

Yes. We're pretty happy Hassan Diarra was on last year's team right?

Didn’t know he had been offered. Sure why not?

If UConn didn't already have Abraham and Nowell I'd be a bit upset about this. Griffiths bothered me more.

Need to get Ngongba.

Flagg would be the cherry on top.

It is a bit frustrating that in the past two classes the arguably best shooter in each class is from CT (not just prep) and neither went to UConn, a team that focuses on analytics and getting high quality three point shots.

Don’t get frustrated. We actually won a national championship last year!

.....damn

Betsy left Windsor High for Prep School to choose Cinci. Clingan played 4 years at Bristal Central to choose UConn.

“When I was a sophomore here at Windsor High, (UConn) was where I wanted to go, really where I dreamed of going,” Betsey said. “But really going through the process and realizing what you need and what you want, that’s really what it came down to and that’s where Cincinnati really separated themselves.”

Contradicts what he said over the spring and summer. I wish the kid luck at Cincy.

I can already see it. Betsey drops 20 on Uconn and a reporter asks Hurley about missing out on him. Hurley has to respond "Look I f-ed up! I took Flagg and Ngongba!"

Thought he said he wasn’t really much of a UConn fan growing up because he never watched much basketball? Whatever, next. Wish him luck but not a good move!

 

[dennismenace]

6-8 185 power forward? Is he thinking of Cinci because of the strength and conditioning program and Mike Rehfeldt who came to us from Cinn. and then returned to Cinn?

“But really going through the process and realizing what you need and what you want, that’s really what it came down to and that’s where Cincinnati really separated themselves.”

With that kind of frame he has some serious filling out to do as a PF. We can do that too Tyler!

Seems kind of like Kris Middleton to me, in terms of PF. Not a banger but tall enough to play it as a backup. So more a SF/PF.

Already had his own logo (“brand”) as a high schooler lol.

Pizzeria owner wants to cover Cincinnati in pizza vending machines

As a Connecticut kid, I'm sure he'll appreciate Cincinnati's contribution to producing exceptional pizza...

 

[prankster]

Officially announced - Cincinnati

Seems like a good kid, had a speech written to thank a bunch of people and got super emotional during it. And it was a long list, he really put effort into it. Best of luck to him!

So, he is going to The University of North Covington Kentucky. Nice!

 

[Hromp]

I am sure the Cincinnati coaching staff took him to the Clifton Skyline and avoided LaRosa’s.

 

[uconngb]

To congratulate us on yet another NC??

 

[TheShot1990]

Seems like a good kid, but he's a cry baby and Storrs is no place for cry babies.

You sound like a stand up guy. Thanks for your input!
