Roster is still not set
It’s been well-documented that Uconn has had quite a bit of roster turnover this offseason. The Huskies had eight players leave from last year’s team. Forwards Isaiah Whaley and Tyler Polley exhausted their playing eligibility while guards R.J. Cole and Tyrese Martin turned pro.
Uconn also had four players enter the NCAA transfer portal: forward Akok Akok transferred to Georgetown, guard Rahsool Diggins to Umass, guard Jalen Gaffney left for Florida Atlantic and guard Corey Floyd Jr. joined Providence.
The Huskies have brought in four transfers to reload. This week, San Diego transfer guard Joey Calcaterra joined previous arrivals Nahiem Alleyne, Hassan Diarra and Tristen Newton.
The roster sits at 11 with two scholarship spots open.
“We will be at 12 (players) by Summer Two,” Hurley said. “There’s a chance we get to 13 if there are some players that have high upside and we can bring in here. We want some younger guys and developmental guys.”
