Mailbag: UConn's 2025 recruiting

[HooperScooper]

I'm not sure Jake knows anything more than the Yard. I think he might know less about UConn's recruiting. But figured I'd post if there's some validity to it. There was an article on Joson Sanon the other day and he didn't mention UConn at all.

I think after missing out on Ngongba, Flagg, and Betsey, and signing Abraham and Nowell for 2024, UConn will move its focus onto the 2025 class where they already have some early momentum on guys. The staff has done an excellent job of getting in on the 2025 guys early. I don’t expect UConn to be one of those schools that just offers every guy they see, more so one of those schools that recruits solely based on fit.

Two guys I think they have good momentum with early are Meleek Thomas and Joson Sanon. Thomas was the first 2025 prospect to land an offer from Hurley and his staff and they’ve remained active in his recruitment ever since.

Thomas is a 6-foot-4 guard from Pennsylvania who won a state championship last season and was one of the most electrifying players in the Nike EYBL circuit.

Sanon was offered by UConn in April and Kimani Young has remained active in recruiting Sanon, along with the rest of the staff. I believe that these two guys will continue to draw a lot of attention from UConn.

Joson Sanon? If we actually get him the name misspellings in future Boneyard posts are likely to kill @HooperScooper.

We've all got to go sometime.

There is absolutely no chance speech to text will spell that name correctly. None.

I already have enough confidence that this staff will continue to land on their feet on the recruiting front. It was like during the JC years, even before much recruiting info was available to the general public, I always knew there was a future uconn legend in the new class somewhere.

I can't wait to hear all about Jason Sancho.

 

[OceanDoggie]

Is Uconn out of the AJ Dybantsa race?

I can't wait to hear all about Jason Sancho.

Until he's on the UConn team I won't care about the spelling. Or maybe I'll just have to accept it if he comes to UConn. Sort of like Apostolos Roumoglou. I won't bust anyone's chops for misspelling his name.

 

[HooperScooper]

Is Uconn out of the AJ Dybantsa race?

I think there's still mutual interest. But he's on the west coast now so it's hard for the UConn coaches to go see him play until the spring. I'm of the belief that he'll never play in college anyway.

Of course not. Just pointing out that if you choose to fall on your sword about names bsing misspelled — well, falling on swords must hurt.

The transfer portal will be big for us next summer with how many key players we will be losing. Name to keep an eye out for is Malik Mack, a freshman from Harvard that is really making a name for himself and could be looking to go up a level. He was very impressive in our secret scrimmage against Harvard.

Maybe use a keyboard.

Maybe use a keyboard.

Or proofread …

He’s solid, I watched him torch IU when they played a few weeks ago

I'll let you each tell DL82 that.

 

[MDHuskFan]

Sanon to 2024 is still a possibility as well

 

[Leebo]

Now I'm ready.

He's more than solid, lol. The kid is averaging 20/4/4 on 47% from deep. He might be the most sought after transfer in the country this spring.
