    Players Entering Transfer Portal, As of March 2024

    I suggest you check out the UConn men's team. It just may restore your interest in men's hoops. Talk about guys who care about each other and about the name on the front of the jersey.

    Nika Muhl and WNBA Draft

    Maddie is also undersized for the post in the pros, and does not make for it with length, quickness, and guile a la Pheesa.

    Arms Race - The New Formula

    You left out the most important element of the blueprint according to the Athletic article, namely developing talent. While this primarily applies to those who are recruited out of high school or from abroad, transfers can be developed as well, with Tristan Newton (UConn men) and Kamilla...

    Freshman Ashlynn Shade peaking at perfect moment

    Hmmm. Would you play her ahead of Azzi? Ahead of Paige? Ahead of KK (with Paige, presumably, as the facilitator)? Are you imagining a four guard lineup with all of the above plus a center? If som are you comfortable limiting Ice or Jana to mop up duty? If you are committed to a 4 guard...

    Going to Louisville game on Saturday, need a brunch spot near XL

    I second Milford's recommendation of Vaughn's Pup and Black-Eyed Sally's. Neither is gourmet dining. More like comfort food. Vaughn's is a burger joint, Sally's is New Orleans in New England. And yes, check their hours. Downtown Hartford is a ghost town on the weekends.

    UCONN - UNC Post game thread

    Ash was wide open. Her body was ready to receive the passes in question; her mind was not. I'm not throwing Shade on Shade. This is how you learn how to be ready at all times. Kinda like the season of Advent.

    UCONN - UNC Post game thread

    This was only the second game with KK and Ash starting. I think that it was more important to give the new starting unit reps and an extended opportunity to build in-game chemistry than to "find a few minutes for Ice and Samuels". Plus North Carolina had already reduced a double digit lead to...

    UCONN - UNC Post game thread

    Turnovers are not always the fault of the person to whom they are assessed. Two of Nika's turnovers were the result of Ashlyn not paying attention and not seeing the ball coming. Perhaps Nika should not have thrown the pass (as Rebecca Lobo suggested), but timing is everything. Sometimes you...

    Guess Who Is Considered the 4th Best Player in 2024 WNBA Draft

    Number 25 Princeton in double overtime with Seton Hall.

    Kudos to Princeton and kudos to Vanderbilt, but the notion that UConn might realistically lose to either of them is just plain wrong.

    July recruiting thread

    What I like about the play is that Bjorn lifts up her opponent while barely breaking stride, and while keeping her eyes focused up court. However, even if Bjorn had not helped the other player up, I don't think that the 5 on 4 advantage would be "cheap" or "unfair". Do you think that a player...

    July recruiting thread

    I like the way she tips a rebound from her left hand to her right, then half-hooks the ball into the basket, all in one motion. The no look pass is also quite impressive.

    Welcome back, Tonya!

    All of UConn's coaches actively participate in recruiting. Tonya and Jamelle have had great success recruiting top talent for Connecticut. For what it is worth, I doubt that Geno or C.D. could recruit top talent for Cincinnati or Temple. Completely different contexts, cultures, institutional...

    Hailey Van Lith Talks Choosing LSU, Winning Gold and More | Full Taylor Rooks Interview

    You clearly have not listened to the interview. She directly addresses the speculation that she was chasing money or rings. Those are not her reasons. Her response to Taylor's question is thoughtful and heartfelt. Well worth a listen, and difficult to summarize without trivializing her.
