The funny thing is they are stating that $ was involved with the AAU coach with NIKE money.  This year will be very important for their relevance in recruiting in the Northeast.  With the new Big East and the ACC having their roots into the NE then it will be tougher for UConn to get those recruits.

The biggest argument that they have right now is that Daniel Hamilton(5 star), Rodney Purvis(transfer) and Rakim Lubin (3 star)are coming and the possibility of getting JaQuan Lyle, Sam Cassel jr, and Devin Robinson.  The truth is UConn fans should be nervous; Hamilton (backing out to UCLA), Lyle(Kansas), Cassell(Louisville) and Robinson(Indiana).  Their first and second option recruits are choosing other schools; Perkins (Gonzaga), Snider (Illinois), Abu (NC State), Kasongo (Oregon), and Larrier (VCU).  Some are know saying that whoever they get now is extra.  Seems like Ollie is just throwing out scholarships and hoping some will be secured.

2014 Basketball Roster

PG- Boatright(might leave early), Purvis
SG- Calhoun, Samuel 
SF- Hamilton(might switch to UCLA)
PF- Daniels (might leave early), Facey, Tolksdorf, Lubin
C- Nolan, Brimah

I just don't see the numbers for depth especially if Boatright and Daniels leave early. To me they need to bring in at least a 5 person class this year unless I am missing someone. (Purvis, Hamilton, Lubin, SF and Combo guard)

Just thankful for JB, Hop, Red and GMac!!
