2020 Recruiting: Hurley watching Cliff tomorrow (10/10)

[HuskyHawk]

Any time you are comparing what might be the best guard in UCONN history, and certainly the best guard in the country that year, to what we have now....

you can throw out the comparison.

That’s irrelevant to the argument, which is about depth. We have almost never had more guard depth than we will have next year. So adding a guard isn’t a desperate need. If the view is that Cole and Gaffney aren’t good enough that’s fine, but since neither has played for us we don’t really know.

This is lining up for Kentucky to snag him next spring. My opinion is there is no way we start the season without a commit from a Big. and Cliff is not going to a school with another freshmen center. So that's the ball game.

Agreed. Lock down Cardwell. If Cliff wants us in the Spring, we'll make it work. But it looks all but over.

When are you all going to learn that calling a recruitment “over” 4-5 months before a commitment date is idiotic. If the staff still believes we have a shot just sit back and wait

 

[Towney007]

Well reality is - Kentucky is Kentucky. Auburn will pay anyone anything they want.

We need a big, keep recruiting him hard, but i'm so sold on Cardwell at this point, I'd rather get that commitment now and if we want to keep pushing for Cliff, great. Let's do that.

But I want Cardwell. He's such a good fit here it's nuts.

Thanks for reminding me that I saw this license plate in downtown Springfield last Saturday night.

What was Dan Wetzel doing in Springfield?

Basically that he likes Hurley and hears from us about once a week.

You're comparing Cole, Gaffney, and Bouknight to Kemba, Bazz, and Lamb. Come on.

The 04-05 team only had Taliek, Williams, Gordon, and Anderson? Umm, that's the #10, #41, #41, and #24 recruits in the country. Come on.

Kemba was the best player in the country in 2010-2011 and you're comparing him to a guy who was the 479th ranked recruit who played great at Howard University.

I believe the poster was focusing on ball handling and who brings the ball up, not overall talent. I could be wrong

Glad we are still recruiting.

I don't think Springs or Javonte would be a deterrence, but Carlton likely is.
Nick Richards has been playing very well for UK and will likely leave for the draft. I don't have any inside info but it seems like Cliff would need a clear path to starting here or he's gonna go elsewhere. Prob UK.

And if I'm Hurley I am creating that clear path, iykwim. Cliff is worth it.

Should be able to use Andre to help with Cliff

If he is as good as some think he is Carlton will not be a deterrence. Have you seen Josh play lately?

UConn: “They are good. I know Coach (Dan) Hurley and he is a good coach. They are in contact with me once a week.”

“And I accidentally met this Chief dude by the urinals - he’s really cool and likes to joke around - Chief watched me in the summer AAU circuit”
