@NickTurturro1 You can't compete for division title with such a shitty bullpen. We all knew they needed to at least replace Weaver/Williams, but Cashman spent winter bragging about how great Bird & Doval were gonna be. What a clown.
Why are people acting surprised that bullpen stinks? It was ranked 26th after deadline last season & Cashman didn't spend a dime on it all winter. It's impossible to stack wins if you can only rely on 2-3 guys in your pen.
@BleedBlueCasey@SteinsStuds He just says Pope shoulda hired a GM when he got the job and the “gm” he hired a few weeks ago is already too late for this cycle. 🤷🏻♂️
@BigBlueReds@TransferPortal Got nothing to do with Freeman. Hines is a Center, not a PF. Not saying Kentucky won't sign Freeman. They might, but it won't be because Uconn signed Hines.
@XanderBBN@TransferPortal@JoeTipton@CoachMarkPope Dude, Hines is a Center. @TransferPortal listed wrong position on their graphic. Maybe Kentucky will get Freeman, but it won't be because Uconn signed Hines. He's replacement for Tarris Reed. Freeman would replace Karaban. You should be hoping Uconn signs Duke PF Nik Khamenia.
@BoomBlue24@TransferPortal Maybe, but it won't be because of this move by Uconn. Hines is a center, not a PF. @TransferPortal got his position wrong in their graphic.
@ryancassidycbb Even if Mullins leaves, Khamenia (if they get him) can play the 3, & Donnie Freeman (or similar player) can play the 4. They'd be much more athletic & bigger than this last team was. Very dangerous. Need another big though.
- Silas Demary Jr
- Solo Ball
- Braylon Mullins
- Nikolas Khamenia
- Najai Hines
That'd be your Big East Preseason #1 and a legitimate National Championship contender
@DMGibson6@CBBInsiderDuke Seton hall was 10-1 in the non-conference and was the first unranked team in the country to beat a ranked team. So no, UConn was not the only team that played well in the non conference
#BREAKING: Barring a last minute push from St. John’s, Najai Hines is expected to sign with UConn.
The 6’10 C averaged 6.5ppg, 5.5reb in 18mins as a Freshman with Seton Hall this past season.

@JayKalina2@CBBInsiderDuke But most of the BE teams have enough $ to put top teams out there, besides 2-3 of them. There was no excuse for how poorly everyone but Uconn played in non-conference games. That's why there were seeding issues.
@DMGibson6@CBBInsiderDuke 1) you can’t just spend money you don’t have lol but sure, cool didn’t realize that
2) I think those teams in other conferences are just as bad so my take is consistent.
3) as I’ve said about 40 times, you can go ahead and do it, just don’t be a hypocrite and cry about seeding
#BREAKING: Former Seton Hall C Najai Hines is committing to UConn, per sources.
As I reported earlier, UConn was the heavy favorite to land him. Hurley gets the job done.
