[Go/huskies]

Mitt is in San Jose Ca, Not likely she will be in LA tonight.

Well, UConn fans can no longer mock Louisville or any other school for "robbing the cradle". UConn has reportedly offered scholarships to both sophomore Paige Bueckers and freshman Azzi Fudd.

USA U-16 stars Bueckers, Fudd get UConn offers

According to two sources, Auriemma has made scholarship offers to Class of 2020 guard Paige Bueckers (5-foot-11, Eden Prairie, Minnesota) and Class of 2021 guard Azzi Fudd (5-foot-11, Falls Church, Virginia).

This confirms my uneducated opinion that these two are exceptional players. I hope they both verbal soon.

Waltz often picks recruits well before they have an actual basketball identity.............you don't need any education at all to see that those two are not only highly skilled players, they are ideally suited to UConn's style of play.............it was simply a matter of time before those offers were made...........as a huge believer in Buecker's abilities, I will be really ticked off if she ends up anywhere other then Storrs..............

I don't follow recruits, getting my information from reports I read here, but I have seen magic in the game of the girl from Minnesota that I haven't experienced since 2004. Bueckers not only is skilled, but seems to have a flair to her game, an on-court attitude of invincibility and an entertainment value that last appeared in Storrs in 2001.

Or maybe that's just wishful thinking on my part.

No man. Paige is the truth. Size, agility, strength, long arms, nice shot, and a team attitude. Made for UConn.

as I've said since I first saw her in action.............she's good enough to play major college ball right now..........I can't even imagine how good she's going to be in 3-4 years................

I'm gonna try anyway. Keep us posted C-ball.

Another intriguing note in that article:

Cameron Brink, a 6-foot-4 sophomore forward from Beaverton, Oregon, attended the Huskies' win over California-Berkeley last Friday at Gampel Pavilion. Rated the No. 4 recruit in the Class of 2020 by ESPNHoopgurlz, she was a U-16 invitee and finalist last May. A recruiting source was unsure whether Brink, who averaged 12.5 points and 8.5 rebounds as a freshman in helping Southridge High to the Class 6A state title, had been offered a scholarship during her visit. She also took a trip to South Carolina.

Major college basketball maybe but, Uconn major college basketball? Right now? If she is she is really super. Basde on reports I read on here, she IS a must get for Uconn. However, if Uconn gets a commitment from the player who is rated ahead of her ( I cannot think of her name) and not her, would that disappoint you?

 

[Sluconn Husky]

Can anyone recall a player as young as Fudd ( just starting high school) receiving an offer from UConn?

I know Espinoza-Hunter got one early since she committed halfway through her sophomore year.

let's put it this way, I think she'd be a starter for many of the bigger DI teams right now but wouldn't be taking Crystal's job..............the '20 ESPN #1 (Clark) and #5 (Van Lith) rated recruits (at the moment) are both point guards and excellent players in their own right but I'll take PB over either of them................

 

[dtbtbtb]

I didn't see Clark and Van Lith play but if they are better than PB they must be very special! This kid (PB) got UConn written all over her in the way she plays and carries herself. She's got magic in her game and reminds me of my favorite player (DT) with her court vision

 

[Sluconn Husky]

I like Clark quite a bit from what I saw but it's no contest between her and Bueckers. Haven't seen Van Lith play but she's #1 at PN and people rave about her.

haven't found too much video on Van Lith but here's a brief clip

Brink is super thin, but can really get up and down the court, I think she'll end up number 1 2020, I don't think she is as versatile Stewie is when it comes to scoring the ball, but she could have a Stewie like impact defensively.

Has to Espinoza-Hunter or Jackie Gemelos.

The Huskies continued their full-court press for Haley Jones today:

 

[Mdoggie]

Just looked at Haley Jones on YouTube. Wow!

 

[LasVegasYank]

One of the side benefits to having ONO and Christyn W. commit is that many potential recruits will want the opportunity to play alongside them (not to mention Megatron).

Jackie Gemelos verbaled at age 15. Not sure how old she was when offered.

 

[MilfordHusky]

Jackie Gemelos verbaled at age 15. Not sure how old she was when offered.

As I recall, she verbaled on the spot.

 

[Sluconn Husky]

Just looked at Haley Jones on YouTube. Wow!

Guessing you saw this highlight package from a tourney at the start of last year. She's right up there with Brunelle for me in terms of 2019 targets.
