If all current recruits are retained or recommit, Jalen is persuaded to return and a competent big man can be recruited, his first team can be good. A winning record is a reasonable expectation.
...+1, especially on this pointUSNA90,
I agree with all of your sentiments. First order of business should be to bring in a shot blocking and solid rebounding big. That helps shore up the D right away. I think Hurley has some good pieces on that roster and kids like Jalen, Christian, Rique, Sidney, Josh and Isaiah Whaley can all play for him. If he can get Akinjo recommitted and keep the other 2 recruits and bring on one really competent big then it begins to look okay or better for next year.
The talent on the roster wasn’t as bad as it was made to look by the Ollie offense and Larrier leaving is addition by subtraction. He is a low IQ BBall player and I feel like he hurt the team chemistry often last year. He was a big disappointment........
It’s not as much of a rebuild as some may think. The roster is certainly better than what Calhoun had in his first year.
I didn't see Daigneault tweet that.....but time will tell if they chose right and made an economically sound choice. Extending KO was obviously not... But they had to do something or lose everyone.......so I am willing to " go for it" and re-up on season tix, I think I'll give em' another donation today too......how about you ?Daigneault has reported that donor involvement was necessary to make the final contract happen. So I don’t know if we should believe Daigneault or Jacobs. If we should believe Jacobs, then UConn is not as “cash strapped” as everyone thinks. Or they could both be right and the donors are only being asked to step up on the possible Ollie buyout, which is an unknown liability but max of $10 million. I think Ollie will be made to walk for around $3 million when all is said and done. I am sure negotiations are probably under way as they lay the NCAA crap on the table with Ollie’s attorneys and they make their counter-proposals.

No..... they're are 2 separate sources/reporters, but now I see where you got it...See Aman’s very first post in this thread- A Dime Back is Daugneault’s blog right?
