Very happy for her and will be rooting for her no matter where she lands, but sad to see her go. I understand her wanting to go somehwere she can play more, but i love the positive energy she brought to the team

I hate to see her go, but there is something to be said about having a dream and working hard to make it happen -- even if it doesn't end the way you may have hoped.

Autumn definitely has the talent to make a difference at a smaller program and I hope she kills it wherever she lands.

PS - I would be THRILLED if she landed at Vanderbilt with Shea.

Beat me to it. Very interesting. Who knew that non-scholly players had to use the portal, however maybe it's the easiest to put it out there that you want a change. Wondering if she ends up back home?

 

[Magruber]

I thought she was a walking and a pre-med student.

She might be the 1st recruit and Building Block recruit for Vandy.

Starting PG at LSU next year. ?

She is an academic so following Shea to Vanderbilt might be another option.

The few times she entered the game, she looked like she belonged. No deer in headlights, made good decisions and I think she can shoot. I think she helped herself with this stint. Best of Luck. Dream big.

But would she be put on scholarship? I’m sure that’s one of the key factors with her reasoning for hitting the portal in the 1st place.

I’d love to see her follow Shea. Can’t help but be happy for the kid. Accomplished her dream of playing at Uconn and looks like she had fun her year here and was well liked by all. Best of luck Autumn! Can’t wait to watch you shine elsewhere

 

[Centerstream]

Totally understand her transferring but it ruined my vision of her becoming Kyla 2.0, the player/coach on the bench. I feel sad.

And it begs the question "which 2021 freshman is going to lead the made 3 pointer bench celebrations?".

May she find a full scholarship at a school where she can get lots of playing time and prepare for medical school.

Best of luck to Chassion. Hope she had fun here.

Why does a walk on have to use the transfer portal?

That’s what I was wondering.

Why does a walk on have to use the transfer portal?

I wouldn't think they do but it's one way of letting coaches know you're available without making a bunch of phone calls.

Why does a walk on have to use the transfer portal?

That’s what I was wondering.

Those are great questions - maybe to publicize her desire to leave to see if other programs might reach out to her? Maybe she's not sure where she wants to go and hopes some lower level Div 1 schools will reach out?

Either way, best of luck Autumn! Once a Husky, always a Husky. You will always have an entire nation of fans rooting for you wherever you go and whatever you do!!

 

[JavaMan]

Why does a walk on have to use the transfer portal?

Perhaps because she now has UConn experience on her CV and may now be more "Scholarship-able."

Now, what will Geno do when he needs a replacement coach to handle the timeouts?

Doesn't Vandy have a top flight Med School?

 

[pacific 44]

Kim may be looking for both players and coaches. With Autumn she gets both in one package deal.

 

[Kaizen]

Good luck young lady, wish you the best..

Great Medical school. Not sure about their flight school.

Best wishes to Autumn! I wonder where she has a realistic shot at substantial playing time?
