Promise you guys will contain your excitement:

Hamilton said he will likely sign letter of intent within next couple of weeks.

Maybe we should see how he looks next year.

He was a 5-star recruit, yes, but was generally unimpressive in his year at NC State. On the other hand, he was burdened by having Mark Gottfried as a coach. So nobody knows.

He could be 2009 Jerome Dyson (very good). He could also be 2010 Jerome Dyson (significantly less good).

He could be better than Dyson 2009 too……..that's where I will lean until I see otherwise! His athleticism makes this a real good comparison but his handle and ability to shoot it better gives him an edge.

I got a kick out of this Hamilton quote.

“I love it out here. The fans, they all love you and embrace you. That’s why I like it out here, because there’s no haters.”

Daniel, have you met freescooter yet?

I was at the Barclays Center last night and although in very limited minutes, I walked away very impressed with DHam. First reaction.... a more athletic and quicker Rip Hamilton clone. Kid has a very smooth jump shot, plays with a quick bounce, and was always moving. His overall game is perfect for the UConn style and I suspect he will put up some very nice numbers from day 1. He will either drain the 3 with ease or blow right by anyone trying to play him tight. Loved his energy on the floor and his overall demeanor screamed prototypical UConn wing. This kid is the real deal.

His handle is so good. He looks extremely comfortable with the ball and is very good shooting off the bounce, a rarity in this day and age. His composite rating is 17 I think so I wouldnt say he is underrated, that said, I can't believe ESPN would rank him 30th, behind many 2 guards who don't seem to be in his league. Not to shoot for the low hanging fruit but Duke's Grayson Allen? C'mon..
