I mean we have to be basically out at this point?

Still wish Leque had stayed in NY and not moved to NC. Another one that got away. He is a Baby Westbrook and will probably end up at UNC now...

UConn seems pretty confident they'll get this kid with the addition of Kiamini Young

UConn or their fans? (Either could be delusional.)

Their fans.

Hurley was a good hire, so was Young. They now think they can be in the mix for any elite NY/NJ prospect. Maybe they can, but they are trying to sell a "legacy" of a coach who is no longer there while playing Tulane and ECU on CBS Sports Network.

They'll be more active in that area than maybe they were with Ollie, but I still think it's a hard sell to play in the American. That's not to say that Hurley can't recruit "his type of kid" and be super successful like Cincy, Wichita and even to some extent SMU and Houston recently - both those programs for the most part aren't getting top 50 kids. I think Hurley got 4 4* kids in his time at URI; none even sniffed the NBA.

I could have been so much better if I could have carried/palmed the ball and traveled all the time.

It also helps to be able to get your eyes over the rim so effortlessly.

"Mad hops" get your body to the rim. Palming lets you bring the ball with you.
