Why drive a Mercedes when you drive a Bentley. Forget Yale go to Williams.

Forget it. It's the grad school that matters - unless ur of the top 0.5%

If this kid goes to Duke I will actually vomit

 

[UconnU]

NE6 vs New Heights is going to be a must watch when they meet this season. We are essentially recruiting both of their entire starting lineups.

If he got an offer, it would make the most sense given his interests. EOD, we rank a fair bit lower as a destination anyways.

We're in really good but want to close this out soon, he's very good.

You can vomit. If he goes to Duke I’ll puke.

Don’t Want De air Jordan and Cockburn really badly.

This guy and Mulcahy are the must gets for this class. We can’t lose elite Northeast talent anymore. Give me Mulcahy, Delaire and 2 of: Lecque, Quinones, Achiuwa, Akok, and Cockburn.

It's pretty simple, if he wants an NBA career UConn is his best choice. If not and wants to work in something like finance then maybe Stanford or Yale will be right for him.

Or get a BS/MBA in Finance/or Accounting over four years while in college, possibly Europe if not NBA for BB. Uconn business degrees highly respected in the business world. Or graduate in three years and get MBA in Ivy league in the off season. Pretty bright future possibilities!

 

[dennismenace]

Thats not even remotely true nowadays as long as you perform you will get NBA looks.

Uconn's reputation under JC according to one scout: "When you come from Uconn you are NBA ready." Hopefully we will return to that reputation under Hurley.

100% of people on the board would sign up for that. That's a Top 10 class.

No way Lecque comes here tho.

Agree to a point. But I think a class of Mulcahy, Quinones, Delaire, and Akok is a 100% realistic class.

The fresh prince of delaire needs to be a Husky.

Hes going to be a Husky if those are really his final four. Hes not going to play across the country. Where is Vanderbilt anyway? Yale can take care of his academics but likely not do much for his basketball career. Uconn ftw!

 

[Ewekon]

Vandy is a great school and is in Nashville. Fun town. SEC school.

 

[HawkHusky]

Storrs is funner.

What’s a Vandy?

If you're not scared of Vandy it's because you haven't been paying attention. They have a top 5 class coming in, it's an elite academic school and Nashville is one of the best cities in the US.

I still think we get Delaire. But man we're gonna have to work for it.

 

[Paesano]

Vandy's coach had better pay attention to the attention the FBI is giving college sports.

It's the South, Jake. No place for a Yankee.

 

[HawkHusky]

The only thing I know about Vandy is when you see them in a March Madness bracket, always pick against them.

Im fully aware of what Vandy is doing. My post was more tongue in cheek.

Yale makes huge-to-full financial aid contributions to pretty much all admitted students; Yale is probably the same or cheaper for most financially-average folks

The average student debt is minimal for most IVY grads . I was never sure if that was due to the means of their typical student, substantial assistance or a combination.
Its the middle class student who goes to the Quinnipiacs of the world (Fine but not elite private schools) who end up with the most debt.
Just another reason for class stagnation.

Puke just started recruiting him...

For VIP only but here you go. I don't have access.

Should we be worried?

Yes. It's duke.

10 years ago, sure.

 

[superjohn]

He's being recruited by Duke and Virginia now. I've heard we are in great with him since Hurley got here but really want to get him on campus and close it out soon.

Losing out on him would sting a lot. Hopefully we get him here soon

Jalen Adams signed just after getting offered by Kansas and Louisville. Sometimes you just want to know you can land Megan Fox before settling down with Reese Witherspoon.
