I would love to see him play for Murray @ BC and do well there. It would be great transition for both.

It would be nice to have players that force refs to call a lot of fouls on opponents.

Here's a reason why it may be better for Braylon to spend one more year @ Storrs. Also from X

One thing the article omitted is Kevin Ollie’s promotion.

I think we got glimpses of last year's Solo this weekend. He'll be better next year. He's certainly gotten criticism for his shooting this season. Post-game he talked about his wrist issues and getting two shots in his ankle to play. It's certainly possible that physical problems affected his...

The "best team that never was" briefly existed in August 2008. UConn - if Elena Delle Donne stayed in Storrs - would have had her joining Maya Moore, Tina Charles, Renee Montgomery, Kalana Green, Tiffany Hayes and other very good players. Would have been an amazing team. Geno would have...

I was yelling at the TV to bring the starters in so they wouldn't get too cold. A bit of a gamble by Dan Hurley, but it worked.

Doesn't seem right. 1. I would sincerely hope he would not pile on his players at that point. 2. I'd imagine that missing an open layup just pushed a desperate Kayleigh Heckel over the edge in a game that was already lost.

In addition to helping the team competitively later in the season, I would suspect a key scheduling criteria is $$.

I applaud Geno for the statement. I also would not be surprised if he was encouraged to issue the statement by the AD and UConn president. Everyone realizes that his behavior was personally damaging and hurt the team and the university. I suspect that Geno senses he has limited opportunities...

A few quick thoughts that I hope aren't too influenced by emotion. UConn and especially Azzi played very tight. When her first shots were off, I had a sinking feeling it would be a long night. The small lineup didn't work. Sarah was held and grabbed the entire game. Blanca tried to win the...

You simply can't win with a 14 point free throw made deficit. South Carolina manhandled Sarah most of the game, yet UConn gets called for literally twice the fouls?

One would hope, but recruiting didn't get a bump after Coach's 2nd title. I also believe he said being so involved in prep kept him from spending time on recruiting/portal. Hope Moore's new position helps with that.

Yes. I couldn’t understand why he was stuck on the bench.

Probably a big jump in salary. Be interesting to see how she does with recruiting and NIL vs. the Ivy League. I would say - perhaps with crossed fingers - that the move might also set her up to be near the top of the UConn list when the end of Geno's run arrives.
