2026 Recruiting: Sara Okeke | The Boneyard

2026 Recruiting: Sara Okeke

In Geno’s pre-season media availability video (7:08), he alludes to the fact that the ability of foreign players to now benefit economically from playing in the US will result in more of them coming here to play, and that they are in great demand by US Coaches. To me, Sara (a third player with that name) possesses elite athleticism and skills, and should not be viewed as an Olivia Vukosa insurance policy, but rather as another great potential addition to the team. I think this is a player that Geno prefers over Sitaya Fagan and the other Top 10 International Prospects from the 2026 Recruiting thread posted by HuskyNan.
 
Looks good but I hope she's not Big "O" insurance?......... ☹️

I personally don’t think so. Coach Valley still likes things on Instagram about Big O, so I believe we’re still in the race there.

If it is, I wouldn’t be mad. Any player that scouts say are reminiscent of the Ogwumike sisters is a player I wouldn’t mind having. Another Spanish speaking “Sara” to pair with Blanca & Sarah could be a crazy good trio.

My first thought when I saw this was Big O insurance. I was nervous about the Big O because of the many visits and dragging out the process, when previously it seemed she was ours to lose. We didn't seem to have a decent plan B at all other than pursuing a quick fix in the portal.

Now at least there is a good alternative which is a good thing, but clearly this interest could suggest they are less confident of landing the Big O. I guess we could give a slight possibility to getting or wanting both, but that only seems like it would make sense if Sarah became more of a permanent 3.
