To answer my own question, probably not and obviously it depends who starts & who subs in... That said, some of the players coming off the bench are going to be really, really good. It could be a nightmare for opponents. For example, say KK starts and plays most of the 1st quarter at full...

Just to be clear, the Nika comment about "offensive liability" was in the responses, not my OP. Nika scored 764 points in her career and shot 40.1% from 3 point range as a Senior. Love me some Nika..!!

Last season, UConn scored 3,269 points in 40 games. That comes out to an average of 81.7 points per game. That average was the highest per game number since the 2020-21 season. Between graduation & transfer, the Huskies lost players who scored 1,146 points. (Paige = 756, Kaitlyn = 277, Aubrey =...

I recently looked up Serah Williams stats from the Wisconsin web site. I was more than impressed. To begin with, Serah started 89 of the last 91 games for Wisconsin. She missed one start freshman year and one sophomore season. She was thrown right into the starting lineup and averaged 25, 30 and...

Useless trivia because we are all bored and waiting on the season to start. ;) Only five WBB coaches have won a WBB National Championship in the last 10 tournaments. (Tourny in 2020 was canceled due to covid) Here are the last 10 NC games: 2025 - UConn beat South Carolina 2024 - South Carolina...

Ashlynn Shade did not play in her 2nd game in a UConn uniform. Geno later said it was due to an oversight during a tough loss to NC State. Ash has played in every other of UConn's 78 games in her two seasons. She has started a total of 45 games and has come of the bench 33 times. Her role as a...

Maggie Vanoni @maggie_vanoni 5m Update from Geno Auriemma on his couple injured players from the team’s summer session: Morgan Cheli (foot) - not back on the floor yet Ayanna Patterson (shoulder) - back to full go He also notes that Caroline Ducharme “looks really really really good” Edit...

Bone Dog, I’m a huge Ashlynn fan and agree she will get “starter minutes” whether she starts or comes off the bench. Geno came up with a genius plan for her and KK last season, off the bench. My quote was that she was she was “so good off the bench” in that role. Agree her intensity and skills...

The recent "Who Will Start Day 1 Next Season" poll by EricLA had some interesting results. A total of 351 people voted and every one of them said Azzi would start. Makes sense. All but 2 people said Sarah Strong would also start the first game in November. (My guess is those 2 mixed up Sarah and...

Just a reminder that only 7 brilliant Boneyarders predicted Caroline would start next season... 2.1% of the total. ;) Go Huskies..!!
