I LOVE all the hype Sarah is getting. I wonder how it will parse out next season when Juju comes back. I wonder if one cuts into the coverage and hype of the other.

Fair enough, but on the flip side, from the time the lead was 21-5 to UConn being down 4 a few minutes before the half - much of that +20 swing was about UConn not playing well. Look at the halftime adjustments and about 4 minutes into Q3 then BOOM. it was off to the races and we outscored them...

I think it's gonna be close between Azzi and Mikayla Blakes. Lots of games left to be played, and Azzi did herself a lot of good with her performance on national TV vs. Tennessee.

I know things can happen, but for the most part, are the rankings locked? Rest of season games vs. ranked opponents: UConn faces no one ranked the rest of the season UCLA faces Michigan, Michigan State, and Washington (plus USC) SC faces Tennessee, LSU, Alabama, Ole Miss, and Kentucky Texas...

Is it really bulletin board material, tho? I mean it's not like the team was "disrespected". The dropped because they have been struggling eeking out wins against mediocre Big East opponents while Michigan just beat a pair of top 10 teams. Not rocket science, and not disrespected. The ACC has 5...

Going to paraphrase it but Geno said something really cool I thought (he often does but this stood out) He was asked what he said at halftime and if the players were fired up and he poured gasoline on it, or if he was more measured. He basically said "oh in my career, I'm king of pouring...

One other thing to add - Allie has quick feet and good "twitch" reflexes - meaning she can shuffle her feet quickly to keep in front of defenders. She will never be a gazelle sprinting up and down the court, but on defense, with quick feet, players are able to keep in front of "faster"...

Congrats to Olivia! FWIW... Of our freshmen, I know Blanca would have been a McD AA had she been an "American", and also FWIW, I fully believe Jovana is one of the top 5 freshmen in the country. Just my $.02 on her from watching multiple videos and reading about her as well as her performances...

What's interesting to me about that graphic (aside from UConn leading the nation in % of 3's made) is that SC, LSU and Vandy are all up there for %'s. Also nice to see Marquette, Villanova, and Creighton continuing to recruit and perform well with 3's... And Tennessee by far takes the most 3's...

What a waste of podcast. It's lazy, and jumping on a stupid debate from the last time UConn was supremely dominant. First of all, last season even tho UConn romped thru the NCAA's for the most part (down 4 to Oklahoma at the half and a 14'ish point win over Juju-less USC), they lost games during...

It isn't just her 3 point shot. She's missing mid range and even layups. I'm sure if the horde were to ask Geno he would say it's just a slump. I can't imagine fatigue. The way she defends - it's elite. She doesn't get enough credit for her defense...

Thanks LOL. Only Zanzsman gave it a thumbs down. No idea why but OK. And you are right - Paige really only played 29 games in her first season, and 17 the next season, missing the entire following year due to her injuries. She played 115 college games whereas a player like Sarah will likely play...

Allie was POG AND Badass. She was on fire and I think she finally started smiling after she hit #10. She's all business out there for sure., Congrats to her!!!

After the first quarter, that was a really fun game. Coming out party for Allie - not only POG, but Badass as well. She drained a bunch of 3's in Q2 after we struggled in Q1 For 30 minutes the defense was elite. 22 points in 30 minutes after Q1 Another stat stuffing game for Sarah. NPOY! Ash...

Way too early to speculate about next year with certainty, but I fully believe Jovana is a top 5 US recruit (or would be were she American). I think she's that good. Just like we have seen that Blanca is one of the very top freshmen in the country. So IMHO we are getting 2 top 5 recruits. I...
