Buried in this article here is a hint at who Hurley and the staff are targeting next. Let the speculation begin:
As for now, the Huskies will continue to utilize HDI for portal help. UConn still has four open scholarships for next season but likely won’t fill all of them. The staff will continue to mine the portal for backcourt players. With Newton and Alleyne in tow along with returnees Jordan Hawkins and Andre Jackson, the most ideal fit might be a ballhandler with multiple years of eligibility who might come off the bench next season but compete for a starting job in the future. The staff appears close to getting such a player or two on campus for a visit. UConn is also considering Class of 2022 high school recruits and/or international players. Junior college players aren’t a focus right now, but not entirely out of the question.
