Incoming transfer Rodney Purvis has gotten a USA Basketball invite. Here’s the release from UConn:
UConn has juggled its roster to open a spot for a new player for next season, and perhaps retain an old one.
Rodney Purvis is in his first week at UConn and his first game is 18 months away, but he is already in attack mode.
UConn's Nov. 9 victory over Michigan State at Ramstein Air Base in Germany was welcome enough at the time. It got Kevin Ollie's coaching career off to an exciting start and set the tone for a strong season.
Last weekend, the website Collegespun.com posted some interesting research about various major college basketball programs and the money their players have gone on to earn in the NBA. UConn, which currently has 13 players who earned more than $76 million this past season, ranks second on the list. Duke’s players earned $77.2 million, but there are five more, 18 of them.
The expectations for UConn men's basketball will be high next season. They could be even higher the year after.
Ricky Moore remembers the whole process.
Omar Calhoun had two successful offseason surgical procedures at the UConn Health Center to address discomfort in his hips, a UConn school spokesman confirmed on Wednesday.
On the September day he was introduced as the UConn basketball coach, a day he carried in a most impressive and emotional way, Kevin Ollie needed to fight back tears when his attention turned to his daughter Cheyenne.
Shabazz Napier, Ryan Boatright and DeAndre Daniels all announced Friday they are returning to play for UConn for next season. So the expectations can begin building … and building.
