    2026 Transfer portal

    Maybe a lower P4 program, American or A10. And I don't disagree--she might wind up being a lot better than I'm expecting.

    2026 Transfer portal

    I think she's likely to go to a mid major. She's still quite raw and has an extensive injury history. I don't see her being a contributor on a P4 tournament caliber team.

    2026 Transfer portal

    Agreed, really good player. She scored 7 straight in the 3rd quarter to bring Texas within 1 against UCLA, then made a defensive error or 2 and was benched the last 8 minutes of the game. Probably should've played more minutes. There are also rumors of Lee/Preston being portal bound which...

    Wow major blow for Texas. I know they have wings coming in but Crump is a stud and will be one of the most coveted transfers this cycle. Her finalists were Texas, Duke, and Ohio State. I could see her fitting in well at at either program. Duke graduates Ashlon Jackson and Ohio State loses...

    She was fun to watch when healthy. Hopefully she comes back and has a strong senior year wherever she ends up.

    Dang she was a great player for the Terps last year. Potentially a great pickup for whoever gets her

    I don't think she takes Jada Williams. Solid player but Jada moving around as much as she has is a big red flag. Guessing Close learned her lesson after the Barker experiment last season.

    Best UConn team that never was.

    Honestly this ^ -3 future WNBA MVPs + Renee Montgomery who was a 1st Team All American that year. Filling out the rotation was Kalana Green, Tiffany Hayes, and Caroline Doty, all of whom had excellent seasons as support players.

    Best UConn team that never was.

    My vote was for 2017--that was Geno's best coaching job in 40+ years and the team's chemistry was off the charts. They looked a little rocky early on and turned into a juggernaut by mid year and steam rolled some very good teams. They looked like a clear step up from the rest of the country...

    Best UConn team that never was.

    Some quick corrections: 2020-21 should list Christyn Williams instead of Walker 2017-18's main rotation with KLS, Williams, Phee, Nurse, Dangerfield and Stevens. Megan Walker wasn't a big contributor to that team 2016-17 didn't have Stevens (she was on the bench for a transfer year)

    Best UConn team that never was.

    Shea got injured in the Big East Championship that season. In 1997 she tore her ACL in the first round of the NCAA tournament.

    Thoughts on SC vs UCLA?

    I think people are sleeping on UCLA next year. Sienna Betts/Timea Gardiner could be a solid front court duo and I'm guessing they'll land some quality guards from the portal. By the end of the portal period I think they'll be viewed as a top 20 team next year.

    Tennessee 2025, part 2

    I can't imagine she'd join at this juncture. I also don't know how the AD can keep Kim on for next year unless they're content with having the worst team in program history. The entire roster will be made up of portal players, and no decent player will want to join Tennessee (or Iowa State)...

    I'd be curious to see what the portal entry numbers looked like as of the Monday after the championship game last year compared to where portal entry numbers finish today.

    WNBA 2026

    This is my take too. Angel and the front office clearly weren't a good match. Getting 2 future first round draft picks from Atlanta in 2 insanely deep drafts could become incredible value.
