Solo looks to be working already

My goodness

Working on what…….looks like he is just showing off…not sure that qualifies as work.

You can be jeered at, but right answer. Anyone who thinks Hurley wants his players in the gym shooting tik tok videos instead of practicing 3s and foul shoots doesn’t understand Hurley yet. (And that’s not knocking Solo, who may have shot the video in between hundred sets of foul shots for all any of us know — just agreeing that players filming highlight reel dunks isn’t making anyone or the team better.)

 

[EROCK CONN]

i think he’s going to be a star!

Geezus H, that's incredibly explosive.

Glad you added a bit of insight. From a 10 second clip there is nothing to conclude he was just there fooling around. He was in the gym and unlikely there just to do that clip. Hoops is still just a game and he was having a little fun.

He played a key role in stephs absence. He's tasted greatness. There's no way that this kid is not gonna ball out. Don't forget we were surprised by almost everybody:
Cam
AJax
Sanogo
Hass
Joey
SJ
DC
Newt
AK
Jstew

I'm on the boneyard a ton; I know the majority of us had no idea what we had in these guys. The only guys we were amped on were steph and Hawk. And even then, they had a bunch of detractors. Haven't we learned?

TRUST!

I'm so excited for him to be a more meaningful player on the team and thus giving more media interviews.

This isn't nail painting and dancing. They're clearly in the gym working and decided to show off on the way out. We got similar videos from Castle and crew last off season, it worked out pretty good.

Don't be a buzzkill, this is fun.

I have 2 options here -

1. Drop my jaw because a 6'3 guard just threw down a between the legs dunk off of a 1 step dropstep
2. Brush it off because he's posting dunks on Instagram instead of getting three point reps up, at 9pm on a Tuesday, after the season ended

I pick #1

 

[Horatio]

Season ended 8 days ago. We gotta relax. Lol

 

[Huskyforlife]

Avert your eyes if you're a hardo.

Haaa. That's pretty funny actually.
But think:
How many chances do you have to be a voice amongst the best fans in the country, on the leading cbb fan forum, for the most dominant team in the past 30 years? I'm not ashamed to say that I think about UConn basketball a good percentage of the time.

 

[Huskyforlife]

We should be lucky these kids aren't still drinking the night away and partying btw. The fact they're back in the lab already is a testament to their work ethics.

 

[WrenchFan69]

I'm impressed they're even back in the gym. If I had just won a title 8 days ago, I'd still be partying

 

[TheChamps990411]

My goodness

That is just stuuupid!!! A guy that size with that explosion and power. He also has a nice stroke from 3. I hope he puts in the work and comes back next year and challenges for CPOY along with Karaban who i predicted years ago would eventually be a candidate.

Solo showed put back slams and shooting early when he had PT. He will be great for us I believe we are sleeping on him from comments lately.

We just won back to back national heffing championships and a week later we have fans questioning the worth ethic/practice regiment of a returning sophomore. Some people will never be happy in life.

Old heads in here losing their minds over our guys having some fun at the end of a workout. No doubt in my mind they spent a couple of hours getting a proper basketball workout in before this. There isn't a single player in this program that doesn't work their ass off or take basketball seriously. DH has made sure of that.

Basketball is what they do. Probably get a little squirrelly if they are not in a gym after a couple of days. If you are a shooter, you are always working on your shot. I remember Jeremy Lamb trying to find gyms to use when he was traveling.

This is how I thought people would see it but silly me

They shouldn't be allowed to dunk and filming it is just gratuitous.
