1florida- - I guess I'm not the only one that got the black rectangle!When I go to that site and click on the Uconn game from yesterday, all I get is a black screen that pops up? HELP
For anyone seeing just the black rectangle, it's most likely your adblocker. I turned off mine and I was able to see the ad (which was skippable) then I was able to watch the game.1florida- - I guess I'm not the only one that got the black rectangle!
I watched it on Firefox. But had to turn off ad blocking.For those having issues watch the rebroadcast on a laptop, I switched from watching on Firefox to Chrome. It worked fine on Chrome.
If you like Q now, you’ll love her next year.through the first half 1st impressions:
ines looks great: composed, comfortable and energetic. seems like she knows she belongs with the vets. seems to follow nika's version of d.
Q: like her energy and confidence and her commitment to d. seems to be an aggressive scorer (hurray!).
croats not very good at rebounding.
Just finished watching the replay on UCONN+, could swear I was watching a totally different game than what I was watching yesterday on YouTube.Hopefully the UConn edited version will be better than yesterday's version. Geno seems to be giving KK lots of time at PG. We need bodies for the front court.
Same game, different camera.Just finished watching the replay on UCONN+, could swear I was watching a totally different game than what I was watching yesterday on YouTube.
And taller! Like she hit a growth spurt.Noncompetitive is fine with me. Might just be the camera angle, but Caroline looks more bulked up.
Yes, I hesitated to say it, but taller as well.And taller! Like she hit a growth spurt.
I think Geno has seen enough of KK to trust her. He knows she is a gamer, and will make plays on both ends of the court. He knows that she won't hurt the team. She blends in. Look at the number of assists she’s had in the first two games.Hopefully the UConn edited version will be better than yesterday's version. Geno seems to be giving KK lots of time at PG.

NCAA rules allow a player to wear a face mask. Does the NCAA allow a player to wear a helmet?UCONN WBB WEEKLY had this in notes:
"There was reportedly an injury scare: Caroline Ducharme only got 7 minutes of action despite starting. @Gyabo08A on Twitter/X posted from the game and reported that Ducharme took a ball off the head and did not return."
Looks taller 'cause she's slimmer...Yes, I hesitated to say it, but taller as well.

And a lot of them, Carnac...I think Geno has seen enough of KK to trust her. He knows she is a gamer, and will make plays on both ends of the court. He knows that she won't hurt the team. She blends in. Look at the number of assists she’s had in the first two games.
Geno was sure of that when he saw her in high school. He just wanted to see her at the college level. She does it in practice. She's done it in their first two games. She probably won't start this year, but she'll get her minutes.![]()
There is a headgear out there but the NCAA won't clear it !NCAA rules allow a player to wear a face mask. Does the NCAA allow a player to wear a helmet?
We tend to go to the ball a lot and double team and even triple team the player who has it leaving others wide open for a 3. We also missed a lot of bunny shots.It's been interesting watching these games. I've been impressed with KK Arnold. Also, Ashlynn Shade has impressed me, especially with her movement on offense. She gets herself free alot, but her teammates don't find her. I've also been impressed with the screens set by these European teams. I saw a lot of double screens, especially in the Slovenia game. Also a lot of their game plans seems to be drives with kicks to open threes. Both of those techniques seemed hard for to UConn to adapt to, probably because UConn is being so agressive defensively. Even though they've been lopsided games, I think Geno will get a lot of teaching moments out of these exhibitions. It really makes me appreciate the effort that they took to make these game replays available to all UConn fans.
KK is a force. Love her dribble penetration, finish or pass off to Edwards for easy hoops. Also loved the hesitation moves of Edwards to clear herself for layups. KK apparently grew up with a basketball in her hands from a young age. She will be nearly impossible to contain.It took Mo Jefferson and Crystal Dangerfield two years to get to where KK is right now. She's electric on both ends of the court, and ignites the fast-break game we've been missing..
But I think my favorite of this crop of newbies, although maybe not the most talented right now, is going to be Qnie Mouse.
Let's pump the brakes a little. She's still basically a high school player that hasn't faced college level competition. The teams they are playing in these scrimmages aren't that good.It took Mo Jefferson and Crystal Dangerfield two years to get to where KK is right now. She's electric on both ends of the court, and ignites the fast-break game we've been missing..

They're scrimmages. Try not to read too much into anything. They didn't even bother finishing today's game that's how unserious these games are.From what little I've seen, KK looks the most ready to play, Ashlyn has potential and Q has been the least impressive of the 3. To me KK will be one of this years SPARKS off the bench. Still trying to figure out why Q starts?????
Correct, That's why I said "From what little I've seen"They're scrimmages. Try not to read too much into anything. They didn't even bother finishing today's game that's how unserious these games are.
