You trust Samson Johnson?! That guy will be eaten alive by Zuby. Diarra is shaky also.

Zuby is good but hes not some superstar who going to dominate either johnson or reed. Will be a pretty even matchup.

I actually sort of agree with this. Johnson and Reed split the game at center and average 18 points 10 rebounds and 3 blocks between them. I don’t see this position as a mismatch for us although give us the edge. I do think Smith will give Diarra fits though.

I think Reed is much better than Johnson, and I find it perplexing Hurley isn’t counting on him more.

Hurley being loyal to Sampson to a fault.

The last time we predicted smith would give someone fits it didnt go so well.

Was gonna post the same.

PG is not the problem. The only issue they have is that Karaban did not step up and become that next level college basketball player.

Legit Uconn fans beg to differ.
Boneyard has Diarra’s ears ringing the way he closed out the Gtown game.

I literally exited out of sports-reference and went to espn since I couldn’t believe it. Samson Johnson averages 2.7 rebounds in 18 minutes per game?? He literally averages more fouls than rebounds!!!

Love when the eye test meets stats. Zuby will eat him for lunch if Hurley doesn’t make an adjustment to Reed.

Struggles defensively. But the much better rebounder and scorer.

2 great things to happen to uconn this year:

1- Losing 3 in maui. Humbled them.
2- Mcneely injury. Gives all these guys a month to get more playing time and learn how to play together.

When mcneely returns, they will just skyrocket right to their 3rd straight natty.
