UConn Makes Us Want to ... Hurl

They are probably thinking Tristan Newton 2.0 with Demary IMO with Malachi playing the Diarra role.
Uconn is absolutely loaded.

Easy MR…

I wouldn’t put them in the “absolutely loaded” category… if AK comes back- I think they have as good a Top4 as any BE team… Will reserve judgement on incoming Freshmen
 
Loaded (and regrettable as it is to say, well-coached). Us and them at the top of the League next year. 1-2, 2-1 IMO.
As of now, I do not think we are up there. Its Uconn and Creighton as 1-2.

But when the studs arrive, and they are arriving, it will be Ucoon, Creighton and St Johns vying for the top of the big east.

It is going to be a bloodbath.

They are a Final Four caliber team as constructed. They would beat the 24-25 UConn team 9-10x out of 10 games.

They might be the most talented team in the entire country.

Even right now- i think we have the horses to match. I am going with the assumption Bryce is fully healthy- and his sitting out this past season was a Business decision on his end. He and Zuby form a 1st team BE frontcourt.... no other team can say that.

And Joson... had a heck of a freshmen season (when healthy) in a tough B12.

We'll get the guards to take that Preseason BE #1 ranking. The BE runs through us... dont get it twisted.

That’s like saying a Ferrari without its engine installed yet is not as fast as a Ford Pinto.
 
Unfortunately I’m not 😕
Was quick to ridicule MR repeatedly last year on UConn, but they have no holes and absurd class. They have the deepest roster in the country right now.
Next year's U Conn team could be a fringe top-25 team and light years better than last year's team. That isn't a relevant comparison.

Hurley definitely has some good pieces there but he will have to come to terms with the fact that he is not recreating his two title teams. If he does that and coaches what he has they could be top 15 and while from there anybody could be a Final 4 team IMO your projection is MR-level hyperbole.

Be better.

This year UConn had huge deficiencies. Mahaney was a complete miss and Diarra could only move in right angles.

The roster is massively upgraded.

I would agree that Hurley will never have a team as good as the Newton/Clingan teams. He caught lightening in a bottle there.

To say they are fringe top-25 is just absolutely crazy. They are preseason top 5 team.
