It looks like little ole Texas continues to hurt UConn's recruiting.
Rat-a-tat-tat

Something tells me we'll be fine. Hall of Fame coaches don't come along everday. What was Okafor ranked anwyay? Hey wait, he was from Texas! Guess they forgot to hook him.

We were already full when Emeka finally emerged as a top tier prospect his senior season. He wasn't even the best player on his high school team down here in Houston. In fact, he' wasn't even the second best until his junior season.
Hall of fame coach .... just means he's old. Barnes obviously can't measure up.
You guys will be fine competing with the Fordhams & St. John's of the world. ;D

Will Fordham and St. John be winning 2 Championships in a 6 year span?

The bigger question is will UConn ever win another? Or who will win one next ... Texas or Connect-the-dots?

well since both NC rosters didn't have a single player in common, and the team will have a #1 2 or 3 preseason ranking, I can say: Most likely.

You were unbelievably fortunate to win the first one (the word fluke comes to mind). And there's no one still around of significance from the last one.
As for preseason rankings, in today's age of little carryover from year-to-year for teams they aren't worth much.
I guess we'll have to wait & see. If we hadn't lost our leading scorer & leading rebounder just as conference play was starting this past season, we might have made a run ourselves despite starting 3 or 4 freshmen all season.

Guys the only time UConn should be mentioned on this board between now and September 10th should be in reference to the upcoming beating they are going to suffer in football at the hands of Ken Karcher's Flames. It's OK to dream right? Pass the KoolAid - we're going to run the table baby.
