Connecticut fans love their UConn Huskies, and Donovan has caught flack with the departure of former Husky favorites like Charles, Asjha Jones, Renee Montgomery, and Kalana Greene, plus the limited playing time of Faris. She caught lack for trading Kara Lawson, who had become a fan favorite, for the unproven Bentley.

However, hindsight is a beautiful thing. Look at the net results of the trades the Sun management team of general manager Chris Sienko and Donovan made:

GONE: Tina Charles, Kara Lawson, Draft pick to Atlanta (Brittany Hyrenko, waived two days after trade), Sandrine Gruda (not in league), Renee Montgomery, Draft pick to Seattle (became Kaleena Mosqueda-Lewis)

ARRIVED: Kelsey Bone, Alyssa Thomas, Alex Bentley, Jasmine Thomas, Chelsea Gray, Camille Little, and Shekinna Stricklen

To summarize, that is three players gone that were in the rotation, in exchange for seven rotation players on this year’s team. Sounds like a pretty good exchange.

Enjoyed the podcast. Coach Donovan sounded much more confident and yes happier than in previous podcasts- with good reason!
 
I thought that was a terrific interview. I really enjoyed it. Loved the part on Chiney.
 
Thank you all for the kind words, I appreciate your taking time to listen.

psconn, the only thing is its via telephone, so I don't have a pop solution for that yet.
