Unfortunately, I do not get to visit the Boneyard as often as I used to. With Dolson graduating I see UConn with having only three post players for next season in Tuck, Stokes and Stewart. The in coming class from what I have seen here seems to be most guard orientated. I believe that Wilson is still undecided but chances are good that she will stay in South Carolina. Dawn has done a great job as head coach there. Do we have any post players coming on the horizon that may have committed already or have UConn on their list of possibilities?

In 2015, our best option for a traditional back-to-the-basket center is probably Kalani Brown, a highly ranked 6'4" kid from LA. Geno's had a home visit with her and she has an offer. We also have shared interest with 6'2" Katie Lou Samuelson, 6'2" Dejanae Boykin, and 6'2" Napheesa Collier all of whom are highly ranked but none of whom, but have varying degrees of comfort in the paint.

In 2016, we've heard rumblings of potential interest from a pair of 6'4" players (who prospects nation has as #1 and #2) Lauren Cox and Tori McCoy.

ahem.

I believe that Katie Lou and Kalani are scheduled to graduate from high school in 2015 and Lauren and Tori in 2016. To preclude any misunderstanding, Kalani is from Louisiana, not Los Angeles; she may be taller than 6'4" (but measured by the same guy that measured Bria).

2015 could shape up to be an outstanding recruiting class to follow an
outstanding 2014 class with or without A'ja Wilson. A 2015 center is
a priority. There should be lots of minutes for Kalani Brown if she decides
to come to Uconn.

Yeah, I don't know what was going on when I wrote 2014. Fixed.

That's good. They keep saying that Bria is 5'7". So maybe this girl is about 7'2".

I think Tina Charles will drop by before the WNBA season, but alas she has used up her eligibility.
