Koby Brea entered the portal. Please please Coach Hurley

[Fan1978]

I think he is hone, get brea, mcneely and mahaney

Gone

 

[Stinger92860]

A very rare case where I have a sliver of information but I heard Brea is down to two schools, one being UConn. Don't know who the other is.

Would commitments from McNeeley and Brea cause some other movement? I hope not.

 

[Shine21]

I promise from an NBA team is meaningless.

Not really, especially when a team has a good rapport with the player's agent. It happens all the time.

Does he have an agent?

Me too. But it’s a reality of portal life these days

I have a very strong belief that DH would not misleasd anyone. All players currently on our roster and all who may join before the beginning of next year will have had everything presented to them candidly.

I also believe that this staff won't start adding players just for the sake of having as many top level players as possible. I believe that every addition will be deliberate and the potential ramifications of each addition will be considered thoroughly. While many of us appear to be set on adding both McNeeley and Brea, my guess is that the staff won't begin their play for Brea until after the McNeeley recruitment resolves itself (in either direction) and then, they will look at how it will impact the entire roster before making their pitch.

No rumblings on Traore?

I don't think that's happening.

Who in MCBB can make a stronger pitch than Hurley!

Never was

I believe it would for some.

Wowwww brea/Mahaney package deal?

 

[boog204]

Wowwww brea/Mahaney package deal?

Would be pretty sick... I'd think we'd take the first one to commit, wait for Liam to hopefully make it official, and then call it a portal. No?

Hopefully Liam commits first but getting all 3 + Karaban returning + Diarra returning=UConn having as good a chance to win #7 as Providence does landing any recruit.

We can take all 3 and have a roster of:
Hass/Mahaney/Nowell/Solo
Karaban/Stewart/McNeeley/Brea/Ross/Abraham
Samson/Reed/Singare

 

[ctbro1999]

Need to get those futures bets in ASAP. I don't think whatever the odds are are gonna go down anytime soon.

 

[jibsey]

If we take all of these guys do our freshman from last year and this get enough PT? That worries me.

 

[boog204]

We can take all 3 and have a roster of:
Hass/Mahaney/Nowell/Solo
Karaban/Stewart/McNeeley/Brea/Ross/Abraham
Samson/Reed/Singare

If we took all three, I'd imagine someone would want to leave... There's only so many minutes to go around. We're not going 13 deep let alone 10 deep.

 

[Askgreek]

My expectation is that they want 2 out of the 3 visitors. First two to commit get the spots...

 

[August_West]

Does he have an agent?

Yes.

 

[TheHorde]

Yes.

Is an agent ok to have for NIL purposes but not the draft? I’m admittedly not well versed on this since it used to be that when a player hired an agent, they lost eligibility to continue playing in college.

You can now hire an agent that's both NCAA and NBA certified and he can help with the draft process without forgoing NCAA eligibility

There are certified agents who if retained allow you to maintain eligibility through the process.
