Amari in Transfer Portal

[NYCHUSKIES]

I can see Amari playing for a really good D3 team like NYU. NYU won the D3 tournament, their academics are world class, and Amari will have an immediate impact on that team. In addition, she'll be in her home state on NY and will definitely get good NIL deals.

Thought this deserved it's own thread.

Former 5-star recruit Amari DeBerry enters transfer portal after three seasons with UConn women’s basketball

UConn forward Amari DeBerry, a 6-6 former McDonald’s All-American, entered the transfer portal Monday after three seasons in Storrs.

I wonder if she would consider Gaulledet Univ.? Her major is in sign language, and I know of hearing people who have attended that university ( designed for the hearing impaired) to elevate their signing skills ( plenty of job opportunities of high quality). She would elevate their women's BB program about 100%/

Obviously the best thing for her. I'm sure there are plenty of D1 programs who would love to have her. As a matter of fact, I'm surprised she didn't go last year.

I'm sad it didn't work out at UConn. I wish her the best in her next chapter. BTW, is Colgate Division I?

Colgate is a Division 1 school. As you will recall we played them for Stewie’s homecoming game.

Colgate is Division ONE. THE COLGATE WOMEN are in the Patriot League... with a great
female coach. Come to the Chenango Valley, to Hamilton N.Y. Best Wishes to Amari.

Wishing her the very best, hoping her next chapter, at the very least, offers the chance to develop, improve and prove her talents.

Yes

For me, the program will be diminished in her absence.

No

Might a fine choice for her. However, my instinct is she might want to be in a different environment. She has been in the country for three years at Storrs, and Colgate is much the same. I bet she looks for a city.

And the one exception was for an exceptional reason. You are referring , I assume, to Donna Della Donne.

I don’t consider her at all. Never a Husky. She was meant to stay near her sister.

U r correct!!

If you want to win national championships you never stop recruiting. And you need at least 2 point guards. If the one you bring in is better than the one you had, so be it ! This D1 basketball kids you don't stop recruiting because you may hurt someones feeling.

Forever etched in my mind

I loved this play of her then, I love it now as I looked back on it, and will love it when I review it in the future. All the best to Amari on her new endeavors. And also, all the best to Ines, as I’m wishing them both successful futures. Go Huskies! Go UConn!!

So to whom were you referring then?
