Transfer Portal Window 2023

[Hungryhusky99]

He'd never come to UConn but immediately one of the best players in the portal

Xavier it sounds like

 

[RipCity]

Xavier it sounds like

Yea and Armstrong to Arizona

Kriisa is solid but he’s not the star everyone made him out to be. Xavier is going to lose Boum, Kunkel and Jones so good fit for them

 

[BIIIG]

Most overhyped player i've seen in a long time. 37% from the field this year

 

[BIIIG]

INSIDER INFO: Andre Curbelo will leaving St. John's and playing at Hofstra next year.

If his shoulder is ok, he's a solid guard. He played hurt all year.

We weren't listed reaching out, but Denver Jones would be a good option for a shooter/scorer. I wonder if that means we're in good with Timberlake.

We should reach out to Indiana Jones. Pretty good shooter if memory serves.

 

[ElGreco]

Im not sure a lot of fans realize how good Newton is…he can take over a game with his dribble penetration

I want him back!!

David Wingett has a year of eligibility left. Currently at Peru State. Just sayin'

Wasting our time. He's league-bound.

The whole thing is a waste of time until we have some idea of who will be on the team. I don't think we do. Maybe the staff does. But at the moment we have 4 more players than scholarships next year.

The staff wouldn't be contacting players 5 minutes after midnight unless theu expected space to open. I'd expect 1-2 transfer spots, and that's not even accounting for a surprise transfer.

I really like the way Alleyne and Newton worked out. If we can grab guys who have had success at a high or decent level, that'd be my preference.

I agree. We don’t need “projects” anymore. We can get proven transfers. Let the lower ranks kids prove out and then give them the shot they deserve at a top program.

Sure. More our speculation here. Can't talk about guys transferring per the rules. So we don't really know where the need will be.

 

[Hey Adrien!]

41% from deep on 5 attempts per game? Get Tom Moore on the line. Would be an excellent bench piece for a year.

Since he played 2 years of CC, he should have 1 year of eligibility, right? Defensive rating is decent as well.

Caught Quinnipiac once this year when Iona played them. Jones was their stud: 24 points, 4 threes, 6 boards, 2 steals. I remember his shiftiness and ability to attack the rim.

 

[Huskyforlife]

Dezi is probably my second priority to Timberlake at this point. He can either start next to Castle to space the floor, or be an upgrade at backup pg.

Ellis intrigues me for obvious reasons. I’d hope playing for a real coach fixes the turnover problems. I’m down for him as the Newton replacement.

Man that was the most fascinating and befuddling BY'ing . Whatever happened to the dude posting that stuff?

Yep and there's no reason to rush it, so many really good players around the country have yet to announce for the portal. UConn will be a seriously attractive place for a big time shooter at guard.

 

[ElGreco]

I would bet Curbelo is gone.

My perception is that he’s a head case.

 

[ElGreco]

Soriano is coming back to SJU

Zero chance Pitino let’s him get away.

 

[Fishy]

He'd never come to UConn but immediately one of the best players in the portal

I feel like when a guy like that enters the portal, he already knows where he’s going.

 

[Umami Zen]

Xavier it sounds like

Miller connection

 

[QDOG5]

I agree. And the better the player the more likely the destination is set.

Even Hawkins' early defense was abysmal. Castle seems to be plenty athletic enough to be a decent defender if he puts in the effort. I have to assume he will. Truth is, the NBA has little interest in guys who don't defend.

Yeah - there's plenty of players in the NBA who couldn't guard a chair and most are the highest paid.
The coaches want defenders but if someone can score or grab boards - they take them
