    UConn Freshmen/Commits: C. Collier, Coombs, AEH, Gordon, Walker

    Ms. Banks attended Fayette County High School not Norcross.

    Stay Classy Brenda

    Ordinarily, this type game would not hold much interest for me. But since Bluefield, WV is my hometown and many of the most important people in my life graduated from Bluefield State College, I paid attention to the result. I was very surprised, at least initially, that they would be an...

    Another oops

    If anyone has a better system, please step forward. Most track and field events and especially in the 100 meter hurdles, are so closely contested in the U. S. that the only way to select a team is through competition. The top seven times in this event this year are by Americans. Harrison did...

    from "transactions" - one WBB and one FB item of interest

    The University of Idaho football team is currently an affiliate member of the Sun Belt Conference, not the Mountain West.

    Geno on the recruiting trail

    Ms. Kushkituah has missed a number of games this season. She did not play in her school's state championship final on March 5th due to injury (I did not hear any details on the injury). Of course, no one in their class was even close to her team this season so they probably weren't under any...

    Geno on the recruiting trail

    No, they played at the same time, 125 miles apart.

    Best 2015 WCBB Players By Position...

    Maya had already graduated. If she had been a part of the 2011-2012 team, she would have made the difference in favor of the Huskies.

    ESPYs - Best Female College Athlete Award

    The only clue required is that you know nothing about track and field. The 100 meters does not have an indoor world record because it not run enough for it to be credible. The IAAF apparently agrees. Show me the IAAF verified and recognized indoor 100 meter world record, then you will have...

    ESPYs - Best Female College Athlete Award

    Bolt ran a "worlds best" time. The only world records are those recognized and verified by the IAAF. There is no world record for the indoor 100 meters.

    ESPYs - Best Female College Athlete Award

    As much as I like track athletes getting recognition, Usain Bolt over the last year is the wrong person. He was not ranked in the top ten in the world last year in either the 100m or the 200m. He is not having a great season this year either. Hopefully, he will be in better form for the world...

    U-19 Photo - Shouldn't this Pic Include Lou? Anyone Got A Clue?

    Actually, it's not surprising that they brought in a guard since Staley apparently considers KLS more of a guard than forward. In her comments after the Canada game, she said that the USA team was down a guard. As far as I can tell, the only player missing at the time of those comments was...

    Tiff Hayes playing for Azerbaijani

    Please, no more of this nonsense. You talk about blending in, in a country that has a population that consists of almost 90% foreign workers (Indian, Filipino, Nepalis, Egyptians, etc.). There are many more Kenyans and Nigerians in Qatar than Russians or Germans. One of Qatar's three ethnic...

    Tiff Hayes playing for Azerbaijani

    Since race seems to be more important to you than nationality, Qatar also recruits white athletes from Europe.

    USA U18 3 X 3 Team

    I don't care for the phrase "politically correct" but there are comments that can be characterized as silly, nonsensical, or simply unnecessary. I'll let you decide where your comment falls - that is more consideration than you gave Ms. Chou. I suspect she will make her decision as an...

    oooohhhhh Mr. Wilsonnnnnn........

    The only thing good about this thread is that it shows that there are still thoughtful people left in the world. The conclusions drawn by some others on this board are beyond stupid. To conclude from this photo that Mr. Wilson is exhibiting some sort of abusive behavior toward a young woman...

    DPOY: Kiah Stokes vs. ...... who?

    The WBCA. There may be others but this is what Dolson won last season. Hope this helps (http://www.wbca.org/pages/AWARDS_defensive-player-of-year_d1). And yes, Kiah should be a strong contender.

    Get ready Saniya

    While I'll admit that I'm not fully informed about the workings of Geno's mind, but unless her practice and game performance falls off dramatically, I believe Chong will continue to start instead of Nurse. Geno likes to have as many offensive weapons on the floor as possible to start the game...

    UCLA welcomes top recruiting class

    They corrected the article after comments were made that that pointed out that not only was the statement about Ms. Fields being the youngest member of the Canadian National team incorrect, the photo was also someone other than Ms. Fields. If you look at the time of the update and the time the...

    Fuller: UConn's Stokes delivers from long range

    Kiah has always had the ability to make the mid-range shot. She seemed more inclined to take that shot as a freshman and while it was a flat shot, I thought she was fairly proficient. I don't see her taking too many 3's, but I do see her making some excellent post moves like the one she put on...

    What Position Does Jasmine Lister Have With UConn Women's Team?

    She's a graduate assistant. She's listed in the staff directory for the athletic department.

    Asia Durr to Louisville

    I guess that was why HoopGurlz ranked her #12. Apparently, that was high enough for UConn to offer her a scholarship.

    U18 USA vs Canada 7:30 Tonight

    After one of Collier's first baskets, I said to my wife, "Man, she is smooth." She reminds me of Keith/Jamaal Wilkes, aka "Silk". Her teammates will provide a nickname, but I'll be screaming "Silk" during her UConn career. She seems to make ALL of the shots she puts up in the paint out to...

    Does Breanna Stewart make the Mt. Rushmore of UConn WCBB?

    Just to be clear, Lew Alcindor only won three NCAA championships and was the Final Four Most Outstanding Player only three times because freshmen were not allowed to play varsity basketball. I'm sure Stewie will finish with four championships but only three Final Four MOP awards. KML will be...

    MLive article on recruit Kysre Gondrezick

    No flak required. I'm sure the recruiting process will reveal to Geno whether she is UConn material. I doubt that any conclusions made from an interview of someone just finishing their 10th grade year can be conclusive one way or the other. I think the quote about putting the ball in her...

    Butler prediction - drumrolls (multiple - one for each bold predictor)

    Actually, Pickett had a division. But as a West Virginian that spent a substantial amount of time living in Virginia, even a corps won't prevent UConn from sweeping the field.

    OT: Where you from? How'd ya get here (CT or BY, take your pick)?

    I have no Connecticut connection except my brief consideration of Wesleyan University as a college choice. I settled on the U. S. Air Force Academy and after graduation, spent ten years as a helicopter pilot while on active duty and served twenty more years as a reserve staff officer, retiring...

    STOKES!!!

    She's fun to watch. When this championship run is successfully completed, she will be considered a difference maker.
