Borges: UConn has some big targets in mind as summer’s final live recruiting period kicks off

>>The final week of the summer’s live recruiting period kicks off on Wednesday, and UConn will be well-represented at major AAU tournaments in Las Vegas and Orlando over the next five days. The Huskies will have two staff members in each city at all times. Head coach Dan Hurley will split his time between the two cities, as will assistant Kenya Hunter. Kimani Young will be in Vegas, at the Las Vegas Classic and Fab 48 tournaments, while Tom Moore will spend the week in Orlando.<<

Pretty safe to say Borges reads the boneyard religiously

This staff is working their tails off. Love the reinvigorated work ethic in stores.

Clear plan and execution. Will be a fun fall for Husky faithful.

Filling 5 scholarships with top level talent must be very demanding. Impressive that this coaching staff is so committed to making this happen. Lots of respect here.

LOL - he needs to start giving credit footnotes to some posters.

I noticed at the end, regarding Taliek: "One of Brown’s responsibilities with his new job is to keep in contact with former players"

Love that Hurley is designating a former player (and Taliek specifically) to do this

Back in the day, I read two beat articles that were based on calls I made to Arnold Dean. Ken Davis gave a hat tip, Phil Chardis did not.

Claiming no credit, but it fits with the aspirations of my signature.

Honestly, this is what they are supposed to be doing. All semi decent staffs do this.

Yeah, I know, I get it. Just giving them a shout out because in my optimistic view I think that we are going to land some of this top talent, despite the best efforts of a veritable who's who of college basketball programs. This tells me that these coaches are doing their jobs at the highest levels.

It's within their pay grades to do so
I hope something really good comes out of this effort and not only that UConn was in the final 5 for most of them
Hard work should pay dividends
Hoping

Anyone ever wonder who is playing in Vegas that the good guys are watching? See attached.

We always have big targets. Now we have to see if Hurley can actually sign any of them.
