February 2020 UConn Recruiting Thread

should ne noted that 4 of the 5 starters on the opposing team quit about 2 weeks ago and then the coach was let go
Eek! So Middletown was playing a decimated team.

But the opponent--at full strength--hadn't lost in the county in 2.5 years. So it's hard to gauge how good the opponent was last night.

very decimated..and they are currently 3x defending state champs..I referee in the area
Is it public knowledge why the players quit? Three time defending state champs and four of the five quit. Makes almost anyone wonder.

Neither Frederick’s acting HC or the school AD are answering any questions on the subject. They are referring all questions to the Frederick County Public Schools Executive Director for Public Affairs.

2022 Ashlon Jackson's 31-point performance included seven 3's, six in the first half.
Really starting to like this player for UCONN in '22 especially if UCONN doesn't sign another guard to go along with Azzi in '21. Great attitude & perspective on academics ,basketball, family & UCONN is her first choice. With Charli Collier in her ear, she might be a tough pull away from Texas though.

sounds like a heluva story, if it ever comes out. i'd guess the kids deserve kudos, though

Paige Bueckers sat out tonight's playoff opener for Hopkins. They led by 44 at halftime anyway.
I think she's dealing with a stress reaction in her foot, so limiting her minutes in blowout games makes some sense

Just wondering where you saw UConn is her first choice. It's good to hear of any highly rated recruit making UConn their first choice. Desire to play at UConn is alive and well.

It at the very beginning of the tape. The reporter says if she could pick any school she would pick UCONN.
 
Her nickname has to be "Action"


As for UConn, it's nice to hear that from a Texan but we heard that before. I expect that Aston and Mulky will set up speakers outside her house and play "The Eyes of Texas" twice a day for the next 2-3 years. :rolleyes:

Ashlon's USA Basketball profile lists her favorite player as Maya Moore. She's my fave too. :)

2022 commit "Ice" Brady went for 27 and 24 (11 offensive boards) in the sectional semi-finals tonight. I was not there. Championship game is on Saturday evening. I'll be there watching that one, against Max Preps #2 ranked nationally team La Jolla Country Day, along with @EricLA and @Golden Husky I hope... and maybe another Boneyarder or two.
It’s great that you guys can show up and support a future Husky. I did the same thing last season with Aubrey. But if you really want to do it right, may I suggest that you, EricLA & Golden Husky show up to the game in bodypaint with a large “I”, “C” & “E” respectively..... :)

While I typically hate hypotheticals, what does the Board think Geno would do if he had the opportunity to pick up a solid, proven 6'4"+ center as a transfer? Do we have a scholarship for another player this year?
 
Turns out they led by 53 at the half.
I believe MN HS teams play 18 min halfs. I assume Hopkins didn’t hold their opponent to 0 pts. Anyway you count it, playing without your best player, even vs an undermanned opponent, it’s not easy to score 53+ pts in an 18 minute half.

I think he'd grab her. Always room for one more.

I have wondered that for some time, even commented on it in another post. Just have to be careful about speculating.

I won't speculate. But in general, there are quite a few 5 star juniors of size that are not happy in their current situation. With this new transfer rule looming I wouldn't be surprised if Geno hasn't accepted a few calls already.

I can’t imagine UConn grabbing a one and done transfer next year, even if she’s a talented Big. Geno has 5 of his top 6 players returning, along with super transfer Evina, plus a talented group of 5 incoming freshmen. Taking a transfer sends the wrong message to a group of kids that will be at war every day in practice fighting for PT.
