One of Davis, Drummond, Barnes, or maybe Lamb IMO.

If, by Drummond, you mean Andre Drummond, I don't see it as a freshman. He will be a shot blocking beast in the paint, but I don't see him going for more than 10 and 10 (at best).

Lamb of UConn.

John Henson is my sleeper pick. Could easily avg 20/10/5blocks per this year.

Lamb is a hall of famer and 2nd best player in conn history? Lol

By the time he leaves, yes. Did you not see what he did last year as a freshman? This kid has so much potential it's scary. I'm not saying he'll be HOFer in the NBA, I'm talking college and there's no doubting he has that chance if he stays. Especially with Napier next to him taking some of the pressure off him, they have the best backcourt in the country.
My biggest question is how he translates to the NBA game. I know you may scoff, but I have zero doubt that he will be one of the elite players at the college level. I'm curious to see how his small frame would hold-up in the NFL though. Part of me think his length and athleticism will allow him to get away with it, especially if he's out on the perimeter against a 2, but part of me says he'll need to bulk-up and I'm not sure if his frame can add much.
We'll just have to revisit this thread in a couple years.

yes i saw him
i also know of UConn's basketball history.
Kemba Walker, Okafor, Ben Gordon, RIp Hamilton, Donyell Marshall....
he has a ways to go to be the 2nd best player ever in their history

Taylor, the PG at Wisconsin..kid's a stud and controls the game from start to finish.

My vote is for Sullinger at this point. I like his game much more than Harrison Barnes, Perry Jones, and Terrence Jones. He is flat out better than Henson, Zeller, Lamb, Napier, etc.
He won't be the best pro out of that group, but he can put together a 20/12 season or something along those lines. Great college player and should be a solid NBA starter. I view him as a slightly less talented version of Elton Brand at full strength.
As for the best pro? I think it will eventually be Anthony Davis from UK. Drummond has been surprisingly quiet so far.

Who doesn't have a long way to go to be the 2nd best player in their program? I'm not saying it's going to be easy, but I just love this guy's potential and all accounts are that he has a great work ethic. I also loved that he hit as many big shots during tournament time (both in the Big East and the NCAA Tourney) as Kemba if not more. This guy has an assassin's mindset.

Yea he's still an unknown for most outside of the Big Ten.
Posted on 11/16/11 at 2:17 pm to FootballNostradamus
Yeah I watched the game last year where he single handedly torched ohio state. one of the most impressive individual performances ive seen
Posted on 11/16/11 at 2:21 pm to FootballNostradamus
Is Lamb a guy that will go pro after this year? If so, he can't be in the discussion of best Uconn player ever.

get out of here homer. Someone with zero offensive game outside of alley oops is going to score 20 pts per game?

bump to possibly discuss but mainly to suck thomas robinson's dick

Michael Kidd Gilchrist is by far the best ALL AROUND player right now. Sullinger might be the best player period right now though.
