We got Newton. Who's Next?

[3rdbass]

Hawkins is our best sharpshooter, but a wing that can shoot is a need.

Karaban is coming in as a shooter.

 

[auror]

Serious question - Doesn’t it have to be Karaban in some capacity? Otherwise we’re doing this again next year.

Yeah kinda thinking this.

 

[Huskyforlife]

I think we’ll be doing this every year regardless.

 

[businesslawyer]

I think we’ll be doing this every year regardless.

Not sure whether “this” refers to the roster changes or the Boneyard overreaction, but you’re correct in either case.

It's a teenage wasteland in the portal; love ain't for keeping and they're all going mobile. Everybody and my wife is looking for a bargain. No one is saying the song is over, as long as we won't get fooled again.

You missed one, but I'll forgive you because no one knows what it's like to be the bad man.

 

[Colin G]

Ugh. CFJ is such an ideal fit here as the last guard in a 9-man rotation too.

 

[BrysonDeMan]

Assuming a castle reclass then We already have a freakin awesome top 8 and we’re only going to get better…

Newton / Hawk / Jackson / Johnson / Sanogo
Castle / Ramey? / Karaban / Clingan

2 depth pieces? Springs? Red shirt?

We really only need to land 1 more impact transfer e.g. Ramey and we’ll have a 9 man rotation that’s better than this year’s team.

The doom and gloom is truly baffling to me

c'mon - we lost 4 transfers that averaged a total of 8 points last season. impossible to replace

 

[8893]

You missed one, but I'll forgive you because no one knows what it's like to be the bad man.

I was fully aware, but from the pics I could find it didn't look like Hurley has blue eyes and I didn't want to force it when the others fit so well.

 

[Colin G]

Devin Carter next and we good

 

[Huskyforlife]

Not sure whether “this” refers to the roster changes or the Boneyard overreaction, but you’re correct in either case.

Yes

 

[TerryBoyz]

A lot of players going in and out and in and out… a squeeze box.

 

[Fairfield_1st]

Ugh. CFJ is such an ideal fit here as the last guard in a 9-man rotation too.

Maybe we can sign him out of the portal. Get Dan Hurley to show him the love and maybe he'll come back to us.

No one knows what its like to feel these feelings like we do. I can't explain it. But they can't prevent us from being happy.

If you don’t see the problem, I can’t explain. I’ve had enough. We need scorers anyway, anyhow, anywhere, if we’re going to have a success story. We are looking for a pure and easy shooter. Who are you?

 

[NH Husky]

All this weeks activities is part of a plan I’m enjoying.
UConn built its status with a bunch of badasses and warriors.
Some were in your face: Donny, Sellers, Freeman-Hamilton chest bumps. Martin continued that for sure.
Some used other methods: El Amin, Henefeld, Sheffer, Butler, Lyman.
Some were superstars: Donyell, Allen, Okafor, Walker.
Commonality. Other team’s fans hated them.
Warriors: Rudy Johnson, Alterique, Akok.

These others expecting floor time without the effort? Thanks. Nice knowing you. Good luck.

Bring in more badasses

 

[Banta55]

Devin Carter next and we good

I thought is was Providence

 

[EBonz30]

I think Jaiden Delaire could help us a lot from the wing position- good rebounder/defender & versatile- I think he’s actually a bit underrated- still think we need another bigger name- but if Delaire can be the third or fourth transfer brought in- think it would be solid.

 

[mauconnfan]

Devin Carter next and we good

He can't shoot though can he?

 

[Martin]

So maybe the kids and the boneyard will be alright???

 

[Pgh2Storrs]

I’ve been curious as to our interest, if any, in Delaire. From the quotes his father gave to the CT beat guys when he left Stanford, it sounds like we’d be a strong favorite for him if we offered. With Akok gone, it would make sense to bring in a bigger body that fits the 4 out-1 in mold we’re going with but I also wouldn’t want to inhibit Karaban’s minutes.

 

[Bonk]

Anthony Harris transferring out of UNC, weren't we in on him during his recruitment?

Some were in your face: Donny, Sellers, Freeman-Hamilton chest bumps. Martin continued that for sure.
Some used other methods: El Amin, Henefeld,
Sheffer.
Some just played awesome: Allen, Okafor, Butler, Walker, Napier.
Commonality: other team’s fans hated them.
Warriors fought through adversity: Alterique, Rudy Johnson, Whaley, and now Akok. Huskies that we love forever.
Flotsam: Vance, Diggins, Floyd

 

[Matt1010]

He can't shoot though can he?

Hard to tell...he shot 27% from 3 on the year but 35% in conference (3/23 non conf and 13/37 in conf). Recruiting profile also describes him as a solid shooter.

And if we get a few more transfers, we won’t have to worry about looking behind the husky’s blue eyes.,

 

[ClifSpliffy]

yall whiffing big time on the relevant who reference to describe the team.

and what's up with that drummer guy?
