We’ll be fine shut up!!!!!!!

This is the nature of the current college basketball landscape.
Except UConn is the only program that can hang a banner from this past season. This is the price for winning it all.

I fully expected to have a rebuild after winning the national championship. Newton and Jackson may end up coming back. Sanogo, to a lesser extent, also. But if none of them do then the Huskies will have a rebuilding season. Doesn't mean they will be bad though.
 
Boneyard: ‘OH NO WE’RE SCREWED!’

Hurley (walks into 5-star recruit’s home, brandishes ring) ‘As you know, we put 80% of our starters in The League, and won our 5th Natty. So you coming to UCONN or not? Hurry up because there’s competition for the roster spot and the clock is tickin.’

I thought sanogo didn’t keep his eligibility? I don’t think we’ll have a bad year but our chances of repeating go down significantly. If castle is as good as advertised we’ll lose him and clingan next year

And that's a good thing, if we want to keep getting top recruits we need to show we can get them to their goal which is the NBA
 
I think we need to make some Daily Affirmations for members of the ‘Yard during this next month of uncertainty

National Championship repercussions….

  • 4 players to NBA Draft
  • 3 players transferring
  • Miss on top Transfer target

lol- who would’ve thought.

With all that said, I still feel great about our future.
What world are you in? 2 of the 4 players looking at the NBA may be back, and 2 of the 3 players transferring played a combined zero meaningful minutes this year. Why would you go out of your way to overstate what is happening. How about we at least wait until Jackson and Newton actually aren’t coming back before treating them like they’re gone?
 
It's like some people forgot we get two titles on the 4's in the new millennium. It's tradition

And next year happens to be 2024

So chill, the stars are aligned, we're due for men's and women's titles
 
The fruits of their success. I wish all of these young men all the best. I truly hope each one of these guys get the best outcome as far as they were concerned when they made their decisions. The gave us a lifetime of memories. My only regret is that my son got a serious case of food poisoning that kept our family from going to Houston and seeing it in person. We will be ok. Dan Hurley has me believing that he will figure it out.
 
Hurley can’t win a close…recruiting battle.
I accidentally hit the like button. I do not agree with your assessment. He recruits just fine. He gets system players and what we learned is that when system players embrace their role their value goes up.

So a week ago, the worry was that we would repeat and Dan Hurley would jump to the NBA. Now we’re outside the top 25 and preparing for a rebuilding year. I can’t keep up!!!
If you were a NY lawyer this place would seem to be going in slow motion.;)

Would love the use of exaggeration except it isn’t exaggeration. Love that so many people who are normally lurking have taken the time to post.

Just a FYI that if you click back on the Like button it will undo the Like.

You make it sound like these are problems. These are signs of a healthy program.
 
If we had lost to Iona this would be a lot more concerning and the urgency to win now with a guy like Timberlake much higher.

As it is, we're returning at least one starter and possibly up to 3, an excellent center, and bringing in a top 5 recruiting class.

Honestly, if we had gotten Timberlake and kept everyone, we'd probably have to worry about some of those guys decommitting. In the long run I think this is a wash. I'd rather have 2-3 years of Solo Ball than 1 of Timberlake and another transfer.

Apparently the men’s and women’s programs have made the tournament 69 (nice) times. Someone in the instagram comments noted we have a 23% championship win rate. Absolutely absurd. We’ll continue to have sustained excellence and we will win more titles. We truly are the basketball capital of the world and should be proud. In Hurley we trust!

 
You new here?
Post the quotes where people are losing their minds over the transfers and two players testing the waters. I’ve seen mostly a wait-and-see sentiment and to trust Dan Hurley

Trust Hurley will find what he needs. Turn the pups loose let them ball. Good for them and the team along with Karaban and Clingan and whoever else would be a good and fun team.
