So that's the 4th first round pick from UConn this academic year...that comes to my mind.
O'Brian White in the MLS draft, Renee Montgomery in the WNBA draft, Donald Brown in the NFL Draft and Hasheem Thabeet in the NBA draft.
I wonder if any other schools have done that in one year?
We came close to the first round when it comes to the WPS draft...Meghan Schnur was a second round pick...although the WPS is special because it's their first season ever.
Dan Mahoney was a 4th round pick in the baseball draft.
Hasheem will also be the first player ever from Tanzania to play in the NBA.
I thought Hasheem was very good on television. He sounded good. He sounded humble and he represented UConn really well. He will be missed and hopefully fellow life-size poster alum, Rudy Gay will play well for the Grizzlies and get UConn even more respect.
