easy to say when your starting 5 is an All-star team lolHurley said it best re portal, you are not recruiting an all star team and you must get guys who will play well together and complement each other.

Ironically, i think it's more about logen's point that Cliff would be a perfect fit. Not necessarily about him being this good.cliff better be that good to have every post about him lol
He really would help us w his rebounding and shot blocking to help team pick up the desired Pitino pace though certainly not a scoring machine or super star. I’d love to have him, but I love to win NCAA T games toocliff better be that good to have every post about him lol
What are you implying?He really would help us w his rebounding and shot blocking to help team pick up the desired Pitino pace though certainly not a scoring machine or super star. I’d love to have him, but I love to win NCAA T games too
That is silly, he took Spencer, RJ Cole, Tyrese Martin and others since he has been at UConn. They were all “fit” guys v all starseasy to say when your starting 5 is an All-star team lol
apologies... 4 of the starting 5 are all-stars... better? lolThat is silly, he took Spencer, RJ Cole, Tyrese Martin and others since he has been at UConn. They were all “fit” guys v all stars
Nothing lol, just that I never get what I wish forWhat are you implying?
I’d settle for playing NCAA tournament games!He really would help us w his rebounding and shot blocking to help team pick up the desired Pitino pace though certainly not a scoring machine or super star. I’d love to have him, but I love to win NCAA T games too
I know I got thatNothing lol, just that I never get what I wish for
You missed the point, when he picked up the 3 mentioned he did not have all stars. My last word.apologies... 4 of the starting 5 are all-stars... better? lol
My comments were based on his point that we would all feel better if we had signed someone, specifically Omiyuri. Personally, I disagree completely, I cautioned everyone as we signed players last year to be realistic, but this guy was this and that guy was that, etc., etc., etc, and we were a top 25 team and on and on and on. And the reality was the team and coaching staff never jelled until it turned out to be too late. Continuity was one of Pitino’s strengths and that is just not the constant it once was; I am high on all the 4 main returnees but none of them are “proven” anything and the rest of the team will be new.If all you say is true, and I really do agree, how does that make what DK said totally untrue?
Fair, and frankly, healthier perspective than mine. lol.My comments were based on his point that we would all feel better if we had signed someone, specifically Omiyuri.

Fair question, and maybe saying I am high on him is a bit of a stretch but I do think he showed a desire to “get it” down the stretch and his staying to me is a definite sign he seems to be willing to be coached up.Fair, and frankly, healthier perspective than mine. lol.
Not to derail, but curious what's shifted in your RJ Luis perspective. I remember you being particularly down on him.
Quite fair & finally feeling that way myself once he stayed.Fair question, and maybe saying I am high on him is a bit of a stretch but I do think he showed a desire to “get it” down the stretch and his staying to me is a definite sign he seems to be willing to be coached up.
How magnanimous of you guysQuite fair & finally feeling that way myself once he stayed.
