In today’s episode of Locked On UConn, we’re diving deep into the future of UConn men’s basketball by spotlighting three must-have recruits from the 2025 class: Braylon Mullins, Niko Bundalo, and Eric Reibe. Each of these players brings a unique skill set that could elevate the Huskies to new heights. From Mullins’ explosive scoring to Bundalo’s defensive prowess, and Reibe’s versatile big-man game, these recruits are critical targets for Coach Hurley as he looks to build a team capable of maintaining UConn’s dominance in college basketball. We also discuss the upcoming schedule, key visits, and why UConn is positioned for continued success. Plus, a quick detour into why it’s time to stop the “blue blood” debate—because UConn’s recent dominance speaks for itself.
