"Fland has taken official visits to three programs – North Carolina, Michigan, and Indiana. UConn and St. John’s have both hosted him unofficially. Fland hopes to visit Kentucky, Alabama, UConn, and Maryland in the month of September."

We're the only school that's getting two visits

I’d imagine that’ll change if Nowell commits on the 23rd, no?

So if Nowell is already on board does the UConn visit get cancelled? Hard to get both of them to UConn. I don’t know what Nowell would think if UConn got a commitment from Fland but I bet there’s a good chance he wouldn’t be happy. Bird in hand.

I wouldn’t get our hopes up unless we’re throwing a bag. If we do I think we have a good shot.

Beat me to it. Was typing when you posted.

Maybe he can be in line for the 2G spot between him and VJ?

 

[Huskyforlife]

I don’t think we’ll move forward with it once Nowell is official.

 

[UofCT]

I thought Syracuse was in on him too?

Once Boeheim left they had no need to go after anyone named Boogie.

If Castle goes, then him and Newton are both gone and we have two guard spots open for both.

You think Nowell and Fland are waiting until the spring to sign?

 

[Hey Adrien!]

Disagree. My best guess for a 2024-25 starting backcourt is Nowell & Ball.

It's nice for Fland to put us in his Top-8, but I'm not holding my breath.

 

[Psolo12]

No, was just stating it is very possible for both to be on the court at the same time next season if both Castle and Newton have to be replaced.

Even though they're not on his list, I have to think Providence College has as good a shot as anyone.

Finally, someone said it. Wholeheartedly agree. They have the same chance at landing him as the 2023 National Champion UConn Huskies.

There's something about the need to pick low-hanging fruit in that comment.

I just saw this quote from Coach Calipari on social media.

"John Calipari once said this: “Yes I am the type of guy who can come in at the last minute and take any player I want from you. You can spend your whole life recruiting a kid and at the end of the day, if I want him, I’ll get him. If we want him, we’ll get him. Don’t ever get that confused.”"

I want Hurley to be that guy. "Ohhhh, Boogie and Cooper......"

I noticed Calislimy didn’t say the same thing about winning an important game deep in the NCAA tournament hmmmmm

Beat me too it. I was about to say, if only getting all those players led to winning. Maybe Calipari should do his own talent evaluating and not falling in love with a player's star count.

That's Kentucky more than Calipari. If he went back to UMass he'd have a far more difficult time recruiting top players.

100% correct

I dunno. He recruited like a demon at Memphis. He was getting 5 stars left and right. So well that all their seasons have been erased.

Kinda of like Pitino did at Louisville, and is doing now at St. Johns...which will probably have its upcoming seasons erased.

On the plus side it’s a great opportunity to possibly buy a Final Four banner at a Tag sale or on EBay lol.
