Title: 5 star Robert Hubbs commits to Cuonzo Post by: Volznut on September 17, 2012, 03:53:09 EDT big pull!
Title: Re: 5 star Robert Hubbs commits to Cuonzo Post by: Black Diamond Vol on September 17, 2012, 03:55:54 EDT Wow, that's awesome. The only question I had about Cuonzo was his recruiting. Up to this point, his only real marquee signee has been Stokes, and Bruce Pearl got a big assist on that one. I think our hoops program is in very good hands. :thumbup:
Title: Re: 5 star Robert Hubbs commits to Cuonzo Post by: Volznut on September 17, 2012, 03:58:24 EDT Look for him to pull 5 star Austin Nichols as well
Title: Re: 5 star Robert Hubbs commits to Cuonzo Post by: VinnieVOL on September 17, 2012, 03:58:53 EDT Nice!
Title: Re: 5 star Robert Hubbs commits to Cuonzo Post by: Inspector Vol on September 17, 2012, 04:02:59 EDT matta wasn't after him was he? If so the ncaa will be back looking for the smoking grill. :frown:
Title: Re: 5 star Robert Hubbs commits to Cuonzo Post by: VinnieVOL on September 17, 2012, 04:11:23 EDT Just so we're clear... Cuonzo just beat out coach K (among many others) for this kid. :wow:

Dude is #11 overall in rivals top 150 Title: Re: 5 star Robert Hubbs commits to Cuonzo Post by: Black Diamond Vol on September 17, 2012, 04:16:04 EDT we beat UK for him too. Dude is #11 overall in rivals top 150 Let's just hope we can keep him. You never know when Uncle Wes will come down and have a "talk" with his mother. :frown: Title: Re: 5 star Robert Hubbs commits to Cuonzo Post by: Volznut on September 17, 2012, 04:31:44 EDT Let's just hope we can keep him.

Title: Re: 5 star Robert Hubbs commits to Cuonzo Post by: murfvol on September 17, 2012, 04:32:34 EDT Wow. That is HUGE.
Title: Re: 5 star Robert Hubbs commits to Cuonzo Post by: TallVol on September 17, 2012, 05:55:35 EDT Nice to see a kid ranked so highly from my home county in West TN and for him to sign with UT. I am no BB recuiting junkie but I can't remember one this highly ranked in a long time from NW TN. Great job Coach!

Title: Re: 5 star Robert Hubbs commits to Cuonzo Post by: ReVOLver on September 17, 2012, 06:44:21 EDT As far as Pearl getting an assist with Jarnell, that's true... at least as far as establishing the relationship... but after Bruce left, Jarnell eliminated UT from his top 3 for a time and Cuonzo had to get back on it. I think the biggest thing that worked in our favor with Stokes though is that we had a scholly open at midterm and UF and Memphis didn't.
The Hubbs committment is huge. Cuonzo is going to win at Tennessee, no doubt in my mind. Also, if you haven't seen this, it's worth a watch... http://vimeo.com/49507365 Title: Re: 5 star Robert Hubbs commits to Cuonzo Post by: RockinGrannyVol on September 17, 2012, 06:58:03 EDT That is awesome!

Cuonzo is one intense dude. :eek: Title: Re: 5 star Robert Hubbs commits to Cuonzo Post by: Volznut on September 17, 2012, 07:38:49 EDT Hubbs #12 overall in the class, 5 star
Not only is Austin Nichols, another 5 star, #17 overall, a UT lean, but Cuonzo has us right in it with John Williams III, #47 a four star F, and leading with forward AJ Davis out of Georgia Title: Re: 5 star Robert Hubbs commits to Cuonzo Post by: PirateVOL on September 17, 2012, 08:12:58 EDT As far as Pearl getting an assist with Jarnell, that's true... at least as far as establishing the relationship... but after Bruce left, Jarnell eliminated UT from his top 3 for a time and Cuonzo had to get back on it.

I saw the end of the jumbo torn (couldn't hear the audio) and noted that is was not subtle. The Hubbs committment is huge. Cuonzo is going to win at Tennessee, no doubt in my mind.
