Much respect for this joyful young woman. Even though she didn't get the PT she certainly must have hoped for she was always cheerful and rooting for her team all the time. Best of luck wherever you go. May it it be a happy experience.

 

[Hayven]

Thank you for choosing UConn, Q! Best of luck wherever you go

 

[oldude]

Certainly not a surprise. Q had no real path to PT at UConn. Best wishes to her wherever she lands.

 

[dtbtbtb]

it was expected. She was the last player to get into games and her prospects for next season didn't look promising. She's got a championship now and hopefully can get to place where she gets good minutes.

 

[jdote33]

I agree. Not surprising and wishing her the best. I still remember the NC State game her freshman year. One of the few bright in that game

 

[BobbyJ]

A wise decision, no surprise at all. Best of luck to her.

 

[Stagnant]

I definitely expected it to happen. She gets to leave as a national champion.

 

[Charliebball]

I think she's seen the writing on the wall.........I hope Q picks a slightly less competitive program so that she'll get the minutes she wants........she might very well start for a number of programs........how about Georgetown for her to be close to home?

That NC state game showed a lot of promise, and she did hit a big 3 in last years elite 8 game. Hope she can find a spot where she can find meaningful minutes and regain that form. Not surprised by this and think it’s probably the right decision for her. Wish her luck.

Qadence had a productive freshman season & expected to be a key contributor in 24/25.
But the additions of Chen, Cheli, Ziebell, Strong, etc limited her playing time. Despite this, her attitude always stayed positive & she gave 100% in a limited role. She was a very loyal, supportive teammate.
Good luck to Q!

I actually thought she was going to transfer last year.

 

[Henry]

Best of luck wherever you end up, Qadence.

 

[cancontent]

Nah. I figured Barker would leave.

The key players are still there plus add Lwger-Walker and baby Betts. And now they’ve got a bunch of room to go after 3 point shooters in the portal.

Who are their key players outside of Betts, Rice and Leger-Walker at this point? Is Jaquez a junior?

 

[victor64]

I think she improved so much since she first enrolled.

I hope she lands at a place that fully utilizes her skills.

There just was no room in inn at UConn.

 

[jaydee602]

I actually thought she was going to transfer last year.

She had a productive freshman year, even contributing in the NCAA tourney. She just didn't foresee the influx of players who would surpass her for playing time.

 

[HuskieDawg]

I wish her the best. I honestly feel that outside of Aubrey, Q has the most god given athletic ability on the team. Just so very raw. Glad she got a title and can now look for a new opportunity.

I think she's seen the writing on the wall.........I hope Q picks a slightly less competitive program so that she'll get the minutes she wants........she might very well start for a number of programs........how about Georgetown for her to be close to home?

Or that university in College Park.
But they might be considered competitive.

 

[huskeynut]

Not a surprise.

She has talent. Hope she finds a home were she can play.

 

[Urshurak]

Yup. Saw that coming a mile away. Best of luck Q!

 

[Kat]

At this point, she needs a place where she can get a lot of playing time. Q will be fine.

 

[Kaizen]

Best luck to your future ~~~

 

[jaydee602]

It is rewarding that Q leaves with a Championship. The stats don't reveal her value, but she was always a supportive, vocal cheerleader from the bench.
And at UCONN, the reserves are treated as well as the starters. Q was embraced by her coaches & teammates!

 

[freekimchee]

Best of luck Q, hope you find a home where you can get more minutes!

 

[Ct Dog]

Good luck, smart move

 

[MooseJaw]

thanks Q, I have enjoyed watching you, hope you find what you are looking for.

 

[Charliebball]

Or that university in College Park.
But they might be considered competitive.

I'm not sure how much playing time she'd get at Maryland.........a Big East or even an average big conference team would seem like a good fit.....

 

[vballcoach]

What a nice kid! I was at the first Big East tournament game, and after UCONN finished,
when the Villanova-Marquette game started, Q was sitting in the stands, happily chatting with fans, posing for photos, and just generally being friendly to anyone who saw her.

 

[jaydee602]

Brenda Freese is probably waiting for Q outside the campus.
She LOVES UCONN transfers. She signed DeBerry, Mir McLean, & Poffenbarger.

 

[Centerstream]

I really, really liked her Minnie Mouse hairdo.
(I hope I'm allowed to say this...)

 

[Topdawg]

I wish Q the very best. Few transfers will have her resume. She has learnt from the highest caliber coaching staff and played alongside the very best teammates. She has experienced 2 final fours and one national championship. I hope she has the opportunity to showcase her talents in a great program.
