    Killer Instinct

    To me, Killer Instinct is going out there and just destroying a team. Up by 10? Let’s make it 20, then 30, then 40. Never letting up and never giving the opponent hope. I always think of Sue, DT, Shea, and Swin when I hear those words.

    Lou playing in the near future?

    It will be great to see her play at the next level. I might miss Lou’s feistiness most of all next season. She wasn’t afraid to get in an opponent’s face if she felt they were out of line. I hope someone else brings that next season!

    Poll - Will offense or defense be more important in 2023?

    I have always been a defense first person. If you bring defense, you have a great chance to win. However, watching the NCAA tournament this year made me rethink that a tad. Defense is still important (see Ohio State’s press destroying us), but if a team’s offense is running top notch, it is hard...

    Things that make you say "wow!"

    Stewie is deceptively athletic - Geno even said once that if you look at her, you wouldn’t think that she’d be the best basketball player on the planet. Maya’s athleticism always stood out immediately, but for someone who doesn’t know about Stewie, they’d have to watch her a little to see that...

    I appreciate all of the feedback and thoughts!

    Angel Reese Question

    I have seen Angel Reese listed as a Sophomore on LSU’s roster this season - she played two years at Maryland, so I am confused as to why she is not listed as a Junior. Does anyone have any insight? Is it possibly an institution thing where you must have a certain percentage or number of credits...

    How did you become a huskie fan?

    For me it was the 2002 NCAA Tournament. Tennessee played Vanderbilt in the Elite 8. My mom was watching it because an uncle-in-law had coached Jenni Benningfield (Sophomore for Vandy at the time) in high school. So I was cheering for Vandy and was so mad Tennessee won that I cheered for UConn in...

    UConn Broadcasts

    If anyone has already addressed this I apologize - I was curious if the SNY games this season will be available on the Fox Sports App like the previous few seasons? I know it was a multi year deal when it was announced a few years ago, but was not sure if it would continue this season. Thanks...

    Ok Lets move on what does it take to beat Stanford

    Stanford has so much size and length - but they also have the versatility to go with it, which makes them even tougher to play against. Those are my concerns, but I always worry about facing Stanford because of Tara. She game plans better than anyone (in my opinion) and seems to usually come up...

    Metrics say UCONN is a #4 seed - Will NCAA selection committee agree?

    Does anyone know when the committee will do a top 16 reveal? Usually they have detailed the dates by now, but I have not seen them mentioned in what I have read.

    OT: USWNT - Who's next?

    It will certainly be interesting to see how the pool and roster play out. There are a lot of players who can be put into the conversation. My thoughts below: In my opinion, there are clearly some locks from this Olympic team (assuming they are healthy) for both WC22 and O24 - Stewie, A’ja...

    Who Guards Aari McDonald or What Defense does Geno Come Up With.

    Christyn on McDonald, with the whole team helping is the way to go. I personally would shut her down and force the other players to score. They are not an offensive team. She had half of their points tonight and had 31 of their 74 against A&M. Force the others to win the game.

    Baylor Postgame Thread

    Very physical game. It is a shame that all people will say is how there was no foul called on that last play. Like many other posters already have said, how about the many non-calls Baylor got away with all game? Those pictures above of Carrington pulling Paige's jersey and shorts show the type...

    If NOT UConn, then I prefer...

    I honestly would like the asteroid ☄️option, but I voted for Stanford. They have an amazing team and I honestly thought coming into the tournament it would be either UConn or them to win it all. Though their game last night gives me slight pause since Oklahoma State was able to make it a...

    Refs and Announcers

    The officiating was inconsistent. I feel as though we see this more and more as the years go on. I get the screening rule, but apply it consistently throughout the game to both teams. They let it go for stretches and then decide to get foul happy at times. It is definitely frustrating and we are...

    Shea

    Thank you. I did not realize you had stated that elsewhere. My apologies.

    Shea

    Wondering if anyone knows why Shea wasn’t at the game? Hopefully nothing serious!

    face-off of all-time greats; who ya got?

    That is so tough... Team 1 - frontcourt is the weakest, but Yolanda Griffith has attitude to compliment DT and Coop and does not back down from anyone. Also, she is severely underrated. Having the two best guards of all time in DT and Coop? That’s awfully tough, especially with that swagger they...

    June 2020 UCONN recruiting thread

    In regards to the height discrepancies we often see in women’s basketball: I am 5’10.5” with shoes (5’9.5” without) - I have met many UConn players over the years when they have played at Louisville and Cincinnati. I have stood next to Tiffany Hayes and Kalana Greene - both were listed at 5’10”...

    Assuming we have a season, what does the OOC (Out of Conference) schedule look like? Away - Virginia, Baylor (?), Notre Dame, Oregon (?) Home - South Carolina Neutral - Quinnipiac, Mississippi State (likely) Any other games known to be on the schedule?

    Relax on Azzi

    Does anyone know who the other schools Azzi is considering to play for happen to be? I know pretty anyone and everyone is recruiting her - I just haven’t been able to find a list anywhere I have looked at.

    Caitlin Clark

    Maybe I missed the thread, but did anyone post about Caitlin Clark committing to Iowa over Notre Dame? I looked at Hoopgurlz 2020 rankings just now and saw Iowa beside her name. Did anyone else see that?

    WNBA Jerseys

    I hope everyone is doing well - I have a question about WNBA jerseys - does anyone know any other place online besides the WNBA Store to purchase them? I have started to collect the UConn players in the league, but am now stuck - I have Dee, Sue, Stewie, Moriah, Morgan, and Tiffany, but cannot...

    Erin Boley - Rumor has it...

    Dillon, I apologize that my comments came off in a negative fashion - that was not my intent. I simply wanted to let people know what I had heard down here in central KY. I respect both Erin and Muffet - while I am UConn fan and do not care for Notre Dame (solely because they are UConn's big...

    Erin Boley - Rumor has it...

    Hello everyone, I hope all of you are well - I have heard Erin Boley has chosen a destination. My mom's sister had lunch very recently with Erin's grandma (with whom Erin is very close). Her grandma mentioned Erin would be going to a school out in California. As far as I know, she either did not...

    Top Ten All-Americans

    List looks pretty good - I made a list of potential players for the AA Team and these were all on it. A few others could challenge such as Makayla Epps (UK), Jordin Canada (UCLA), Sydney Weise (Oregon State), Becca Greenwell or Lexie Brown (Duke). What about Brooke McCarty from Texas? I know her...

    Alexis Jones Injury

    I am curious as to whether anyone has heard anything on Alexis Jones's injury? I have searched around the Internet and have not been able to find anything as of yet. I wonder if it is an ACL again or if it's a minor knee injury (relatively speaking). If anyone finds anything I'd appreciate it!

    Team Conditioning...UConn and ND

    I am from Kentucky and I watched Erin Boley play in high school - I was very impressed with her even when she was only in the 8th grade - I knew she'd be a phenomenal player one day. With that being said, here are my personal observations: 1) I have noticed that the top Kentucky Girls High...
