The bolded statement is not correct there were at least 3 top 20 Kids in the 2018 class to changed thier committment well after Spring.
1) C.Collier
2) Zarielle Green
3) Jenna Brown

Green's change wasn't big news, IMO. Who in their right mind picks KU which is lucky to make the tourney over TN. KU has made the tourney 2 time since 2001 and not at all in the last 3 years. Jenna Brown's stock had been falling and now is right at 20 from being #11. She can play immediately at Stanford and wouldn't likely at ND.

All but a handful of the top 20 in 2018 signed way before the fall signing. Spring signing starts April 11th, UConn will likely have just finished the season. This was very likely the last time UConn could see her before she could potentially sign somewhere in the spring. Depending on her to be the handful that won't sign early so you they can have "2-3 trips" is dubious.

Several gross errors in this post:
1) The earliest possible signing date for a member of the 2018 class is November 8, 2017.

NLI Future Signing Dates

2). Of the top 20 2018 class per ESPN 15 were not committed (verbal or signed NLI) until well after the May 2017 date you cited in another post. See the tabulation below. Dates are the first time that the player committed to that school and collected from a variety of sources.

3) Haley Jones is class of 2019 & UCONN has plenty of time to evaluate her. Even if Haley decided to verbal somewhere else she will not be "committed" until about 50 weeks from today.

I see where you are going with that, and someone else expressed the same opinion that green was not big news. But when you bring up a player going from ND to Stanford that opinion kind of loses its credibility. Brown stock can't be falling too far last I check she was on USA basketball.

Yes, it is falling by every rating service. You do know USBB is not always the best 12 players, but who fits what roles they want.

When you say "Every Rating Service" you really don't mean Every Rating service do you?

5. How good will Aubrey Griffin be coming off an ACL tear? The Ossining standout was on the fast track to an offer from UConn before tearing her ACL weeks before the regular season last year. The injury was so detrimental to Ossining that the Pride, who were ranked seventh in the country before the season, eventually fell short of their bid for an New York State Public High School Athletic Association-record fifth consecutive state title.

Griffin was a dynamic talent as a freshman, garnering first team All-State honors and showing off the ability to dunk a volleyball. Her return is long-awaited for all in Ossining, and the Pride’s success this season will rely heavily on Griffin’s health in her junior year.

Aubrey Griffin took an unofficial to UConn end of October. Her brother visited the UConn men's team the same weekend.

If you mean October 2017 that would be Aubrey's second UCONN visit. She was also at First Night in 2016 along with Aliyah Boston & Anaya Peoples.

Let's hope she doesn't pay attention to the men's side - the fans over there are disgusted and many are calling for Ollie to be gone.

Hopkins and their star guard, Paige Bueckers, open their 2017/18 season tonight (11-28). Here's a link to a page that will have the box score www.mngirlsbasketballhub.com/page/show/3496571?subseason=417322&tab=content

I remember someone on some board posting that they would post a link to any streams of Paige's games. I'll keep an eye out. I find most every high school game unwatchable but I do enjoy watching Bueckers. If she ends up somewhere other than Storrs I will be highly disappointed.

Bueckers wasn't practicing as of last week due to an ankle injury. Not sure if she's healthy enough to play.

Paige Bueckers' entire stat line from last night:

23 points, 8 rebounds, 7 assists, 3 steals, 1 block

Doubt she played a whole lot either because Hopkins won by 40.

Nice line. Approaching triple double area. Doubt she played a whole lot either because Hopkins won by 40.
My link only lists pts but you are right, the halftime score was 56-27 so I doubt Bueckers played much in the second half.

Amari DeBerry, a starter since halfway through her seventh-grade year, averaged team highs in points (20), rebounds (8.7) and blocks (3.7) as an eighth-grader. The First Team All-Bee, All-ECIC and ECIC II, and Second Team All-Western York all-star is the top-ranked player at her position for the Class of 2021 through ESPNW.


DeBerry, who has already received a ton of interest from colleges, is an absolute matchup nightmare for opposing teams.


“She is an extremely gifted player who can run the floor, has great hands and is strong in the paint with her post moves,” coach Dolan said. “She can also step back and has the green light to shoot the three with confidence.”

Some players who performed well at the high school level when in 8th grade or lower include Andra Espinosa-Hunter, Saniya Chong, Victoria Vivians, and Elena Delle Donne.
