    UConn Recruiting Speculation

    I think there's not necessarily a big talent gap between players ranked 40 and above and some who aren't ranked at all.......

    UConn Recruiting Speculation

    true but unless you are a post with great rebounding and shot blocking talent you're not going to play much if you can't shoot the ball......

    Jackson State’s Coach Reed, on Geno

    Coach Reed and Syracuse Coach Leggett-Jack have both impressed me with their love for their players, their schools and women's basketball........and they both appear to be excellent coaches too........

    Expectations

    After all of the injuries this season, I figured that if the team even made the top 16 that would be a great accomplishment and it is.......now that they're there and playing a good but not great Duke team my expectations have changed.........I'm hoping for a victory against Duke and then why...

    March recruiting thread 2

    UConn needs the "Bean"!! She's going to be a big time post player......has the athleticism to be totally dominant........

    Player Updates

    the good news for Azzi is that UConn will have other good outside shooters so she will not have to feel the pressure of carrying the team from the outside as she did with Paige and Carolyn out ........frankly unless she makes a miraculous recovery and comes back 100% early on, I choose to view...

    Top 3 Things You Want To See Against Syracuse on Monday At 6:00 p.m.

    a win, zero injuries and the Big "O" or other recruits in the stands

    Player Updates

    very similar in mentality but from a physical standpoint Shade came to UConn already in such great shape that she laughs at Geno's practices...........let's see if Ziebell will do the same or if she needs to improve her overall fitness......I know one thing.........she is a long-range...

    I think Alli Ziebell may give Paige and Azzi a run for their money........her outside shot is something to behold..........

    Player Updates

    She's never going to be Aaliyah but I thought Ice played pretty well against Jackson State..........her first few shots were excellent and spun out, her passing was solid, and she had five rebounds and a block or two in limited minutes........when she's a starter with consistent minutes I think...

    Anyone watching the battle of the Carolinas?

    oh if only UConn was at full strength............that would be quite a battle..........

    UConn Recruiting Speculation

    It's the '26 class that UConn needs to concentrate on...........specifically that terrific 6'5" post who's going to school in Middle Village, Queens NY by the name of Olivia Kristjana Vukosa......THE BIG "O"!!!!! She's a once in a decade (or two) player who should lead UConn back to the promised...

    #2 OSU Going Down

    I was very impressed with West Virginia's team defense in the second half against Princeton...........they really put the clamps on the Tigers....

    #2 OSU Going Down

    the only one who can stop Paige is Paige..........she can get her shot off against anybody and if the shots aren't falling, she either gets fouled or simply makes the right pass to the open player...........that's the difference between her and most of the other top scorers........

    March recruiting thread 2

    She's aggressive and athletic for somebody that size plus she clearly has been well-coached based on how she moves on the court

    I think somebody posted one a while back..........here's another from last year in Australia..

    March recruiting thread 2

    just a reminder why she's a UConn target...............a 6'3'+ forward with a bag full of offensive moves and a great shooting touch
  21. Charliebball

    It’s Syracuse!

    I think Nika and KK will tag team Fair throughout the game.........let's hope they don't get in foul trouble guarding her..........I'm glad it's Syracuse because Arizona still plays that tough defense that UConn is so familiar with........I was impressed by Syracuse's offensive rebounding but if...

    Top 3 Things You Want To See Tomorrow Against Jackson State at 1:00 p.m.

    could easily be a trap game...........they better to be prepared to play a tough rival even if they end up winning easily......there are no second chances in this tournament....

    that's easy...............a win with no injuries.............
  26. Charliebball

    Nice draw for us, height wise.

    their post is one of the top shot blockers in the country but I expect Aaliyah will show her some things she hasn't seen too often.......still may not be that easy a game up front.......
  27. Charliebball

    Aaliyah is going to the WNBA

    It's been a great pleasure watching her develop into a complete ballplayer over her four years at UConn.........a relentless player who brought it every game despite taking a pounding while others were forced to the bench with injuries..........just curious why the announcement was made on the...

    Their competition is far worse but I won't sell them short until I see them play........better to be safe than sorry.....

    Analysis and Comments - UConn vs Jackson State - Round of 64

    Jackson State is one of the top rebounding teams in the country which is one of UConn's weaknesses............keep Jackson State off the boards and UConn wins easily, if they don't it could be a bit of a struggle

    Players Entering Transfer Portal, As of March 2024

    they really have few options based on the currently available scholarships.........seems like it's Ms. Strong or another frontcourt player and that's it........I'm not touching the transfer issue......

    Players Entering Transfer Portal, As of March 2024

    I said if healthy.............I assume Jana will be fine and Ice has finally flashed her potential over the past month........as to Ayanna I have no reason to believe she'll be unable to perform by next season but who knows........I'm very much in favor of recruiting another big forward or post...

    UConn Recruiting Speculation 6

    With all of these attributes, the question is how did she end up at BU?
  35. Charliebball

    Players Entering Transfer Portal, As of March 2024

    I'd say she's certainly the best option right now but that may change as teams get knocked out of the tournament and more players head into the portal........having a healthy Jana, Ice and Ayanna is not quite "shambolic" but an experienced big would certainly be an important...
