I know we like to joke on the Cuse board “going in full meltdown mode”… I hate to say it… this board is in full meltdown mode…

I really liked Corey as a great piece moving forward as well and couldn’t wait to see the Castle/Floyd backcourt in action.

Good Luck with the surgery Mau. We’ve currently lost 5 guards + Zero have committed to us from the Portal + many wanting to crow bar Jackson into a PG spot = DOOMED!!!! / an absolute reason to panic / We currently need about five guards
lucky the season doesn't start until November

I am still a Hurley guy, but I'm at the point where I won't believe anything that comes out of his mouth whenever he is hyping up a player. He also hyped up the freshman this past year and Hawkins was the only one who even remotely looked like a good player. I need to see it before I believe it with Hurley now
We had "the best player on a NC team isn't even available" (Deng), Majok, "the Ferrari", etc.

A time-tested tradition.

Thanks Kathy picking her up in 30. She feels great already a little pain as expected but that was already there. And yes, she knows the deal needs to be sure to live by the expectations put forth in the meantime but I will remind her she has a tough time sitting still.
Tough time sitting still will push her to rehab the right way.

My wife has had them both done. My little Grandson loves to say Grandma's got amazing hips!! She was 14 years older for the second so recovery was a little more difficult, but she is 6 months out no pain, no limp and walking 3-5 miles a day and also in the pool regularly. Make sure she does all the PT, especially if they did the replacement from the anterior. While the incision is smaller they really stretch the muscles to fit everything in there. My wife has had both and she thought her posterior surgery was easier. Don't worry about the transfers. If you are lucky enough when you return the BY will have imploded

Hope your wife recovers quickly. You missed nothing. At your leisure read the “Floyd enters the transfer portal” thread and enjoy knowing you missed most of the drama.

I didn't even see a thread regarding the departure of Corey Floyd Jr, what the hell happened here? Is there a story behind this it would seem to be an absolutely awful loss. My wife was having hip replacement surgery yesterday and I was behind on most of the happenings I guess, but this news is shocking.

Please tell me more, this one hurts I thoughts this kid was going to be a nice piece.
Best wishes for the wife... had one of mine done 3 years ago. It was time. Hope all goes well for her.

Thanks 68. Hope it's all better for you and you gained 20 yards thereafter?

Maybe Floyd can be won back over. Idk, it’s just strange
It would be nice but he's going to be looking up at Newton, (likely) at least one transferring quality guard to be named later if not more based on the scuttlebutt floating around here, and a (potentially) reclassifying top-30 commit. Presumably he doesn't want to be the guard version of Springs over the next two years.

Not yet, but it's getting better. I was scared witless about doing things afterward, and took a while to get going, but have seen guys from the golf course that have had the 2nd one done, and the pro was back working in less than 2 weeks, and a guy we play with was back out playing in 4 weeks. It's much easier than a knee.

Hi Mau

My best to your wife - she'll be fine. She just needs to get to PT and push herself to a realistic limit My thoughts are with her

Had my knee replaced in 2016, the other is due anytime and now the specialist says my hip is bad
Thats what years of soccer and being a catcher in baseball will do to you
I am a walking pain machine

This Floyd thing has got me scratching my head - based on DH's comments about Floyd it doesn't connect Someone thought Floyd didn't want to fight for a starting role but according to all the staff the kid wasn't wired to even think that way. Something is going on - maybe DH is feeling the pressure of needing to get beyond the 1st game in the NCAAs but to have his last 2 guard recruits walk away is troubling.

Again the best to you and your wife

I actually expected this and was surprised it didn't happen sooner, based on his quote that he didn't come here to redshirt. To me, he seemed really disappointed -- bordering on PO'sd -- that he didn't/wouldn't get the chance to prove himself.

He didn't sound pissed 2 weeks ago in this article. And if he was mad then that's completely on Hurley for not setting Floyd with the right expectations coming to UConn a year early. You can't tell the kid he can compete for a chance to play and then at the end of the year tell everyone that if he didn't redshirt he would have helped the team. Which is why I don't think you're right. There's more to this story. Hopefully we end up finding out what happened.
