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

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.
I want him back!!Im not sure a lot of fans realize how good Newton is…he can take over a game with his dribble penetration
David Wingett has a year of eligibility left. Currently at Peru State. Just sayin'
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.
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.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.
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.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.
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.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.

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.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.
My perception is that he’s a head case.I would bet Curbelo is gone.
Zero chance Pitino let’s him get away.Soriano is coming back to SJU

Miller connectionXavier it sounds like
I agree. And the better the player the more likely the destination is set.I feel like when a guy like that enters the portal, he already knows where he’s going.
Yeah - there's plenty of players in the NBA who couldn't guard a chair and most are the highest paid.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.
