Wish we had more 2021 kids attending. This is the time when you really should start heating up your recruitment of juniors. That class should be huge for us we have 5 scholarships opening up.

How nice is it to look at this years team pic & not 1 grad-trans to be seen...Grad- trans are not the 1 & done's I'm looking for. We can build a future with this squad

We won't have 5 scholarships open for 2021, it'll be 3

How do we know there won't be a bunch of 2021 recruits attending?

I’m assuming they would have announced it seeing as they announced a 2022 kid was attending.

Does anyone know if Akok and JG are still inactive?

 

[Scrutineer]

Looking at shoulders and jaw lines, Polley looks to be as tall or slightly taller than Carlton and Akok, Whaley and Springs all about the same height (6'9"?).

Late to the party... grab your Husky tape measure and knock on the door.

How tall is Polley currently?

New team photo makes him look like he’s 6’10+ Can’t load the pic for some reason, but it’s on the UConnMBB instagram page

Not sure about Akok. JG looks inactive. Sal posted a photo of him working out saying “Can’t practice... good.. more time to grow”

If we can get a big this fall it leaves us with a potential open scholarship if AG moves on and a slot to fill in the spring and I'm pretty sure Hurley would prefer a frosh to give him 3 in the class if possible. 3-4 per yr is the ideal situation for managing grads and retaining continuity from yr to yr

i'm well aware of all that. fingers crossed for Javonte Brown Ferguson but if 'rique leaves i'm guessing a grad transfer would be the most likely 3rd signing. and personally i'd rather take a grad for 1 year thatll help us make the tourney as opposed to some freshmen ranked between 200-300 thatll be the 12th man for 4 years

Cole looks like the "grandpa" of the bunch with that beard.

 

[Jbirdp5]

In Borges article recapping first night he named the 3 recruits we know attended but made reference that there were others as well. Anyone know who?

JG inactive. Back in a week. He'll be 100% to start the year.

Akok back tomorrow. Only missed a practice or two. Small injuries.

To me it is the opposite as Carlton looks slightly taller than polley and is definitely taller at the shoulder level which means the most.

 

[David 76]

"defiantly taller"?

Moreso than any other sport, the college basketball season really sneaks up on you. I think it's because they've started having true practices in September. Am I the only person here that just realized we're less than three weeks away from the first real game?

 

[selles]

You got a problem with that?

You're definitely not the only one here that realizes the season is a couple weeks away. I have the schedule taped to my laptop for a couple weeks now. I haven't missed a radio or tv broadcast for a game including exhibitions since the mid 80's, there's only a few I haven't watched live in recent years because of the late starts in the AAC but usually watch them at 5 AM, gotta love DVR's
