Your 2017-2018 UConn Huskies

[the Q]

I heard most people play basketball in shoes! So that's good.

i just think it's interesting how you see guys increase height in shoes from a range of like half an inch to 2.5 inches. Crazy....maybe everyone should wear the same shoes for the measurements? lol

Is that Cobb all the way on the right? He is a monster.

Haha I was going to ask that too. He needs to lose some weight. Yikes!

No, Onuorah.

It's David Onuorah, the grad transfer from Cornell

 

[3rdbass]

No, Onuorah.

Wow he looks a little out of shape compared to playing days. I guess almost a whole year not playing started some bad eating habits or maybe it is just a bad pic as he looks like he has a stomach.

A lot of people have been saying we need some beef in our front court. We've got some!

He is big and built but seems a bit more in-shape than he looks in that picture. This one is from April:

We've always been pretty demanding of our bigs getting back on D so it will be interesting to see how they run the court. If they (Cobb, Onuorah) can't get up and down with some frequency it may present an opportunity for Carlton. Would love to see 1 or 2 of those guys step up to the challenge.

 

[Huskybass]

Lots of new faces. The big fella reminds me a little of the center from Miami who was a UConn commit for about a week. Hope Onuorah's UConn experience is a whole lot better.

Some camera lenses make people on the edge look wide.
