Regardless of who starts, given Ice's steady improvement this year its likely Ice and Jana will be on the court together a fair amount. Those are two good sized athletes that will likely provide screening opportunities for our shooters. Ash will be extremely well positioned to take advantage of...

They got me but they are right in doing so.

my bad ...wont happen again

IMO, had Audrey stayed healthy we would have been in the NC game and it would have been a really good one. Q 's time to be a major contributor will come but Audrey will eat into what could have been Q's minutes. Audrey brings lock down defense, rebounding at both ends and a near basket...

An answer to the question of what does it mean to get Sarah Strong....one could argue we are getting the quintessential UCONN player. Her mother , Allison Feaster may have been one of the classiest players to grace the game of women's college basketball. She continues to give back to the game...

If you think they are entitled now, wait a few more years for the full effects of NIL to kick in..

Happy for Kara Lawson...quite the class act. Should we play Duke expect a very strong team that outplayed us in common ranked opponent games( NC State, SC and Notre Dame) with the exception of Louisville. They also only lost to Stanford by 3.

I suspect Dartmouth would eliminate basketball before they paid their basketball players.

Kaizen gets it....while this has been the best year of her life, she has enriched the lives of thousands of others by being Nika.

82-70 UCONN

Doesn't seem the same without Sue Bird.

can't remember the opponent but while surfing the channel lineup i came across a womens basketball game and noticed a team that was playing the game the right way. Specifically, i watched Carla Berube box out, use her left hand, play velcro defense and always searching for the open man. Have...

oops....uconn

94-72 upon

One of the best defenses against bigs is to wear them down early by playing up tempo and perhaps pressing. That way they don't have as much opportunity to set up shop in the paint. Our bench is incredibly athletic and we can sustain a game long uptempo if circumstances called for it. No worries.

Another example of a good team beating better talent. Kim is a great coach and will have her team prepared by March. When one sees what can happen when a team plays together ( like Colorado) it really makes me appreciate Nika Muhl that much more.

uconn 96-46

One of the best things about this site is basketball savvy post such as this original post. However, i will take issue with the "5th starter" projection. Imo, AG is going to have a fantastic year. When she is in the game with PB, NM and the floor will be spread in a way that works very well...

My sense is that Aubrey will be the difference maker in getting UCONN the NC. With Nika, PB and Azzi spreading the floor and moving the ball there will be some space for Aubrey to operate. How many NCAA 4 or 5's can stay with her? Not many. She's always been a terrific defender and an extremely...

I don't like debating on this board and respect all those who post but take Kia's best game away and compare averages and CD will be better... I don't like debating on the board with posters because we all have the same goal as fans, however if you want to delete a good CD game then delete a...

the three point shooting % for UCONN best are KLS 47.2, CD 46.2 and Kia at 44.9....all three are among the best in the nation including CD , who IMO will be a very potent offensive force next year

First IIMO the choice is a good one as he has taken a sleeper program to the Final Four two hers in a row...well done coach. Second....you raise the issue as to wether UCONN would want to play MS for the NC. IMO, they would without reservation want to play them over anyone else. Just an...

If you are MM its a pick your poison set of tactics she has to deploy. My sense is that ND is most vulnerable to our inside quickness with Z, Gabby and Phee. She will have to take away space from our forwards and that leaves the perimeter a bit more open. Statistically ND's best chance is...

According to UCONN's website ...Gabby has 997 rebounds.

I'm shocked they beat Miss State

Am so hoping O wins this game....a Nurse vs Ionescu match up would be must see tv

Dude....academic all=american, leader of one of the great teams of all time.....corporate america would snap her up in a second and give her the training she needs to succeed. Of course if i were corporate Canada I'd make her a better offer. She may not want to be in business but if she...

She will be good at whatever she decides to do...a fantastic student athlete. Gonna miss her.

What a piece of trash.....perhaps if had done some homework by listening to the St Francis coaches presser he may have been compelled to put his pen down.

First of all he is absolutely correct.....but more importantly this is another example of his support for his past players. Thats why the " family" exists and he can continue to recruit into this exceptional program.

Totally disagree on your stats position...they are incredibly important for successful coaches to understand.....while the eye test can be telling, facts provide the coaches information they need to develop strategy. As to Z...when you say she can't help herself which to me implies...

Stacked at center...I actually think Gabby could play small forward for the Liberty and fit quite nicely into their rotation

She is a first rounder for sure and will definitely not go to the Liberty

Your point is spot on but there are 7 Huskies in the 1000/1000 club....Lobo, Charles, Dolson, Moore, Stewie , Williams and ,of course, Elliott.....as others have said, she is a classy lady and will land in a good spot.

Interesting stats from last game against Duke....Z had 3 rebounds in 30 minutes. What are the chances that if Geno was coaching her at Duke that she would have had 3 rebounds? Zero , Nada, Nil The three starting guards for Duke shot a combined 1 for 14 scoring 9 points and committing 13 TOs...
