2024 Recruiting: Patrick Ngongba

[husky99]

Duke landing Flory Bidunga would help us

 

[WhereistheDove?]

He's been to UConn as well, but he didn't say the same thing about Storrs.

Queue the Storrs, CT vs. Manhattan, KS debate.

What about Storrs, CT vs Providence, RI??

Ironically if that guy picking crystal ball for Betsey to UConn is right about Bidunga going to Auburn, it would make me feel better about his prediction of Betsey to UConn, while being bad news about chances to land our big guy target. Conversely, If he is wrong about Auburn and Duke lands Bidunga that's good news for Patrick but the Betsey 7/10 feels more like another stab in the dark.

I call this a win-win, If we get either guy I think we have a perfectly acceptable class that is probably already around top 10 with no other movement

Agree, but I'm feeling greedy and want both!

Kansas state seems like the school to beat here, not Duke.

 

[uconnever]

We NEED this guy

 

[gsmooth]

I'm trying to think of the "package deals" we've scored over the years.

• Alex Oriakhi and Jamal Coombs-McDaniel
  • Alex was a bigger piece but Jamal had that huge rebound in the BET. I think JC might have had issues with Jamal's work ethic, but I could be making that up.
• Jake Voskuhl and Michael LeBlanc
  • I think Mike might have been the more highly touted recruit at the time but he never caught on and transferred to Vanderbilt and finally Houston Baptist.

Any others?

Yes LeBlanc was the higher rated recruit and more skilled than Voskuhl, but LeBlanc's defense or lack of it pissed off Calhoun.

If he really wants KSU - good luck, Bro

 

[Storrs South]

Looks like Auburn for Flory

 

[UCfor3]

So maybe that 7/10 crystal ball guy does know something about the Betsey recruitment just like the Rutgers twitter guy does. He did pick Auburn after all.

 

[dennismenace]

I think hes coming here. I have nothing to back it up i just have that feeling he is.

So I guess we shouldn't feel good about that guy's 7/10 level of confidence pick for UConn?

 

[BGesus4]

Wow. Now I don’t know what to think

 

[UCfor3]

Maybe Kansas with a little more 11th hour NIL like with Timberlake....or more likely nobody knows anything.

 

[husky429]

Wow. Now I don’t know what to think

What'd it say? Deleted now

Flory Bidunga to Kansas. Clicking on the link still brings up the page on Twitter/X. Seems like there's just an issue with embedding it

Good news: We made the top 8

Bad news: No visit scheduled (yet)

 

[TheHorde]

Good news: We made the top 8

Bad news: No visit scheduled (yet)

Worst news: Providence is lurking

 

[auror]

So taking 2 Duke and KSt OVs. He did combo visits with Abraham before, so not quite the same, but did say in his own words that he took OVs to those places. Kinda unusual to take 2 OVs to multiple schools.

 

[KemBuckets21]

Good news: We made the top 8

Bad news: No visit scheduled (yet)

Good news: PC didn't get a scheduled visit yet either and we all know Pat's recruitment is essentially down to the Huskies and Friars anyway.

 

[bendm]

plenty of time in his schedule for OV in early October
