    Williams and Heckel are on Campus today (merged)

    The message sent to them is to work their tails off over the summer so they can be prepared to compete for minutes, shouldn’t that be the message for everyone? Nothing is given.

    New school commitments by Transfers - 2025

    Money aside, I just don’t get the appeal for LSU. Seems like there’s always some sort of drama coming from the program every season. I think South Carolina will be just fine without her.

    Kneepkens

    Because if a player like Kneepkens had UConn as her #1, you don’t pass on her because of the likes of Arnold, Shade, and Ziebell etc. She would be the 3rd best player the second she committed. This isn’t shade to any of those players, but Kneepkens is just that gifted and how shown an ability to...

    Kim Mulkey Hosting Sereh Williams for Visit to Campus

    Yeah……I was just about to say putting her in that same tier as Geno is quite the stretch. She has never even coached any of her teams to consecutive Final Four appearances despite all the talent she’s had.

    WNBA Draft - any surprises on who didn't get selected?

    I was somewhat surprised Sydney Parrish didn’t at least get a look in the third round.

    2025 Transfer Portal

    Every roster is different and the perceived needs of each change. Paige and Chen are no longer on the team, that is two players that are able to facilitate and create their own shots from multiple areas off the roster. Outside of Fudd and Strong, UConn doesn’t have many perimeter players on the...

    2025 Transfer wish list

    By insurance I mean having multiple people that he can count on to contribute. I think Heckel would have a role similar to Chen’s if she were to commit. At USC, I don’t think she really had a role or plan other than to be energy off the bench. She did this well, but she may want a more defined...

    2025 Transfer Portal

    Who said things didn’t go her way? She could simply be interested in transferring to UConn because she underestimated the value of being close to home. It’s not really fair to assume she’s running from USC because something didn’t go her way. Heckel’s shooting could be better, but she still...

    2025 Transfer wish list

    I think Heckel makes a lot of sense for UConn. She’s a skilled passer and understands how to run an offense. Defensively, she’s obviously able to play the top of a press to frustrate ball handlers and is quick. I also think she’s more skilled at getting to her spots in the midrange than Arnold...

    If You Were Olivia Miles Would You Consider UConn?

    If I’m UConn, I think I’d prioritize Kneepkens over Miles.

    We Are The Champions Post Game Thread

    Congratulations Huskies! UConn has far and away been the best team in the country since mid-February. These young ladies are so deserving and I’m glad Paige was able to close this chapter at UConn with a long awaited championship. I think this team rallied for her and them seeing Ducharme...

    2025 Transfer Portal

    I think this is still a little different than what’s happening in collegiate athletics. In most of the examples you used, those professional coaches don’t have to worry about an entire roster up and leaving at the end of every season. Mid-majors, who have to rely heavily on accurate scouting and...

    Elite 8

    If UConn gets by USC, I actually like their chances against UCLA. I am not really sure who they have that can guard Paige either.

    2025 Transfer Portal

    I’ve seen somewhere that Ole Miss is linked to some players currently in the portal. If those names commit, that pretty much erases any opportunities for those leaving.

    Perils of the Portal - Kentucky player asked to transfer

    I agree that this is wrong. She is a senior that has by all accounts done everything she’s been asked to do. I agree with the sentiment that if his daughter can take a spot without any significant contributions then why can’t a senior? It’s not like every single person on a roster gets...
