UConn has landed a commitment from Seton Hall transfer Najai Hines.   Hines averaged 6.5 points, 5.5 rebounds and 2.2 blocks in 18 minutes per game.

Reibe was dumb to leave that situation. I figured Slick Rick would make Hines a priority.

Rumor was he was told he wouldn’t be the starter so he went into the portal.

He had a clear path to start next year with no other centers returning. He was told they would continue running their system of platooning the 5 man and he decided he didn't want to split minutes or compete for the chance to start.

UConn fans feel like they upgraded with Hines.

Easy to see Hines following a Tarris Reed trajectory.

Two years ago when we started doing this I'd jot down Fr and so. that were people I thought would be good fits assuming that some amount of them would be available. I've kept doing it especially post covid with bigs and pgs. Baba has been on all of lists but always as a 3rd big in a 2 big offense. He's a great athlete, but a very situational body type for the big ten. I think he will struggle to get a waiver. He could come in and provide rim protection and get up and down the floor for us. I even Thought Pryor from Louisville if he could give us a full year. 

Still thinking we're trying to elbow our way into the high end euro market. More like wishful thinking. Haven't heard a peep about Suigo.
