From John A.

Freshmen

"DePaul coach Doug Bruno said UConn might have two "Hall of Famers" in its freshman class. He described Tuck as a cross between Nykesha Sales and Jamelle Elliott. As for Stewart, Auriemma said she looks a little like former NBA great George Gervin or perhaps Kevin Durant."

Who do you think Tuck reminds you of? Stewart?

How about Jefferson?

These three are all going to contribute bigtime this year.

I like the Durant comparison.

But if I were Mo Jefferson, I'd be fired up to become a Hall of Famer myself--or at least an AA.

Without playing the game of comparing this group to previous classes, one can only anticipate with glee, the extraordinary talent and experience of this group and especially in that their size allows Geno the opportunity to formulate a whole new approach to the game (compared to previous years) that I for one look forward to observing.

A little bit tougher Tamika Williams

I think Breanna absolutely is analogous to Kevin Durant.

Mo Jeff reminds me of Allen Iverson.

Tuck gets compared more frequently to women players, interestingly enough. She is perhaps not the mold-breaker the other two are, though she might end up being more valuable, especially as a frosh. Swin Cash in Asjha Jones's body is probably an apt comparison, at least from what I saw from her as a high school player.
