Pascal Chukwu

[HuskyBballFan]

This may be an indication of the real interest in Chuckwu

Kansas wouldn't be hosting him for an official visit if they weren't really interested.

 

[Stainmaster]

No idea why people want to speculate about this kid's emotional health or future. He isn't interested in coming here, cool. Good luck to him wherever he ends up. I don't need to dissect every rejection I get from a girl at the bar. Move on, plenty of fish in the sea.

Come on, anyone who doesn't want to come to UConn is mentally unstable. You'd have to be wrong in the head not to consider it.

Which doesn't belong and why?

UVA because they're in the ACC, or Nebraska because they're Nebraska?

 

[Dogbreath2U]

UVA because they're in the ACC, or Nebraska because they're Nebraska?

Obviously, Nebraska because they are Nebraska. Hows does Nebraska get into that group with a kid from school in Providence?

 

[mauconnfan]

UVA, Iona, Kansas and Nebraska? Hmmmmmm..now wonder he left PC

 

[djct1999]

strike Kansas off the list...........

Ole Miss transfer Dwight Coleby (@daddysmooth22) told ESPN he will transfer to Kansas. Will sit this season and have two years left.

 

[CallMeBruce]

I would have liked to have pursued Colby. Too bad.

 

[Letsgohuskies11]

he's an Iona, Nebraska caliber player, he would never survive on Kansas, UVA or UConn no matter how many people wanted to stash him

He was a little foul prone, but he was an effective scorer and a really good rebounder in the SEC. He's a borderline starter for us, and certainly a significant contributor at the very least.

Pretty sure he meant Chukwu

SEC? Providence is in the big east.. he's a soft 7'2 big man that was going to get tossed around by bigger stronger players.

Yeah, I thought you were talking about Coleby.

oh, no Pascal-chukwu

[jollari]

Looks like we might actually be in this one (albeit a long shot)

 

[Fishy]

Why, that's kinda interesting...

 

[CallMeBruce]

I wonder what's changed. Initially it didn't seem like he had any interest in staying in the northeast.

 

[Brochacho]

That came out of no where.

Chewy! Come back!

Chewy! Come back!

[Joke]Rothstein just tweeted that Chukwu is no longer considering UConn.[/Joke]

 

[rayrayfor3]

how many visits is this guy going to make?

 

[HooperScooper]

That would make 7 I guess.

 

[Stainmaster]

So what's our take on him? I personally wouldn't mind adding him given that we have a scholarship to spare and will have multiple frontcourt guys coming off of the books after this year.

On paper it would be perfect... Amida has a huge year, goes pro, and then Chukwu steps in and takes over. It helps to further balance out our scholies and any time you can get an athletic 7-2 player with upside, you take him. Plus pissing off PC is always quite enjoyable.
