Just had a phone conversation with Terry Larrier, who will be transferring to UConn from VCU. He'll be in Storrs "soon," he said, to begin summer classes. Larrier will have to sit out next season per NCAA transfer rules.
Larrier:
(why UConn?)
"My relationship with Kevin Ollie and what he's done with the program so far. I just felt comfortable with him. I can't wait to play for him."
(how close between VCU and UConn two years ago?)
"It was pretty close. It was a tough decision. Shaka (Smart) started recruiting me before UConn, even though me and Kevin Ollie had a good relationship then.
