2023 Recruiting: Youssouf Singare Commits to UConn

[Ricker]

For an unrelated reason, I went back to my Boneyard post from Jan 21st, 2000 regarding Sanogo at Hoophall when 'Big Cliff' was our supposed key target and I was seeing Sanogo for the first time. Sanogo was halfway thru his senior year and was ranked #128. He seems to be working out okay despite the ranking at that late date.

PS (Its hard to be snarky, I already want to apologize to @shizzle787 )

Wow, you were on Sanogo really early. I bet even his Mom didn't project him to be a star at that time.

 

[Ricker]

I admit it was 2020. I should read better when I post. Egg solidly on face.

 

[formerlurker]

Your gif game needs work too.

This is going to be great for Clingan down the road with this kind of talent practicing together. Everybody gets better.

 

[jibsey]

Clingan looks good just being out there.

I'm sure that was a selling point for Youssouf as well.

 

[NJHoops]

He and Justin Edwards were named senior game MVPs

 

[Huskyforlife]

The spot up 3 could be a weapon down the road, but the athleticism at his size really stands out. Huge potential.

 

[Scot-e]

Anyone got a new video so we can get back on track?

Assassins!

The staff is instilling that killer instinct with recruits and now that they've committed they need to embody it on the court!

 

[NJHoops]

I love when a staff can get a recruit to rearrange visits and then cancel future scheduled visits and commit, especially when he does it after the visit. It‘s easy to get caught up in the moment and make a decision but to go home, think about it, talk to your people and then say you’re in, is pretty great.

There was a good one with @HuskyWarrior611 against the world, last season, I think.

Which one? Lol

There’s a few good ones to choose from.

I’m planting my flag on the don’t rely on transfers hill and waving it proudly.

@Get a Job trifecta choices could be considered for the Grand Tetons award.

You might be up for the Everest Award.

Will Shizzle sizzle or fizzle? Tune in at 11 for the latest!

Here’s my ever so slight contribution to the fizzle side.

It was1999 in UConn’s first NC. One of the moments etched in my memory was Soulemane Wane’s strip of Elton Brand and follow up basket. That play and the look on Brand’s face was priceless. That’s as well as you can do with a sub 100 player. Have a pivotal play in the most pivotal game that was significant in the most important game in UConn mens bb history.

I wasn't sure if I should put this here or in the stock thread.

Sizzle or fizzle?

U.S. stocks look ready to sing the bear market blues again this morning after the Bank of England shuffled sentiment with a dominant turnaround. Fearing a breakdown in market stability, the central bank on Wednesday promised to buy long-dated bonds "on whatever scale is necessary," sending the yield on the 30-year gilt down by a full percentage point in the span of just a few hours. The chorus quickly spread across the Atlantic, with U.S. debt echoing similar moves, as the 10-year Treasury yield fell 26 bps to 3.71% for its largest one-day decline since March 2009.

[Hey Adrien!]

Thanks for sharing.

He’s raw, but I like how shows glimpses of a versatile rim-running big. He’s a project, but one I’m excited to see develop.

It’s obviously just highlights but they show glimpses of a well rounded game. Finishing at the rim over smaller defenders and blocking shots like a 7-footer should, plus a few heady assists and a smooth looking 3. Should be a lot of fun to see his development and the in house competition he’ll have with Clingan

 

[CL82]

That guy is like a bathroom after Taco Bell… Just one flush after another.

 

[jibsey]

I'm certainly no talent expert but he's looking pretty good to me.

 

[HuskyInfinity]

Am I missing something or is no one else buying that shot ? Mechanics look solid and fluid. I get it looks like he’s playing against middle schoolers but truly seems like he has the foundation for a wide skill set, that pass too.

 

[TheChamps990411]

Defend, block shots, put backs and set screens. He does that at a high level and he`ll be an absolute stud. All things hes capable of with his size and athleticism. Develop offensively and it the cherry on top of an already delicious sundae.

Not quite as thing and spindly as Brimah in body type, so if he can build up.

 

[Umami Zen]

Still a young dude.. But he is showing on tape that he may have the instincts for some offensive talent early(in HS) that Thabeet/Brimah did not have/never had.. His defensive talents are obvious and his BBIQ is advanced for the limited time he has been playing the game.
