One last sign off from North Carolina. I cannot thank you all enough for the support this season. I CANNOT wait to get to the 25-26 season! A special thank you to Connor Sargeant for everything he’s taught me while on the beat with me, and I can’t wait to mentor someone next year

Outside of the obvious (Karaban and Ball looking like an all-league tandem) some takeaways: - Braylon Mullins is going to be a star. - Can't wait to see Silas Demary Jr. in Feb/March - Jaylin Stewart and Jayden Ross have both gotten physically stronger, will be X-factors
Back in Storrs to get a first look at UConn’s 2025-26 squad
Dan Hurley: "There's no magic dust at UConn that when they get on campus, we sprinkle it over their head and then they become a champion. These players are the magic dust."
Dan Hurley: "Hopefully, the fans don't start killing the players that didn't play well today on socials. I think that started early last summer, and it just caused us angst that we don't need."
Eric Reibe has been dealing with a foot injury since returning from U19's in Switzerland, but should be back practicing next week.
Very, very, *very* unofficial box score from today's open scrimmage: Mullins 4 0-0 11, Reed 6 4-6 17, Demary 1 0-0 2, Stewart 2 0-0 4, Jay. Ross 3 0-0 8, Millender 2 0-1 7, Koroma 3 1-1 7, Karaban 10 0-0 26, Ball 4 0-0 12, Jac. Ross 2 1-1 5, Furphy 2 0-0 4.
Listen to UConn MBB coach Dan Hurley address the media in today's offseason media availability! 🔽 storrscentral.com/s/1215/dan-hur…
UConn’s roster as it stands, will likely get to 14 or 15 scholarships by the end of the summer
Won’t be at open practice today, but be sure to check out the other beat writers who will be there tweeting! I’ll be retweeting their stuff today
Something new from UConn Athletics: some official venue information mid summer. Pretty nice!
