His answer? Pretty straightforward.
“We already have that.”
On why the Huskies eschewed the portal:

Michigan UConn are providing a CBB rarity: A title-game rematch in the first week of the season. Nov. 6. Boston. Tremendous. Beyond that, Dusty May and Dan Hurley are scheduling aggressively and trying to set the tone for the rest of the sport. Details:

36 years ago Christian hit the buzzer shot against us to stop UConn from going to the final 4. I never forgot it! This is redemption....now they will never forget this day!

Tarris Reed Jr: "I feel like a lot of teams in the Big East are ... trying to build a roster just to beat UConn, beat St. John's. I feel like getting out of the Big East, there's a lot more freedom. And it's hard to do a one-day scout against us, because we have an offense that's so complicated."
