Geno on Christyn

[HuskyNan]

"And this is the worst she's ever going to be, right? She's a freshman, so she's going to get better from here," Auriemma said, and then with impeccable comic timing added, "Wait until she learns some of our plays."

The fact he’s ribbing Christyn in the press means she “gets” Geno, which is a big deal. I’m loving this s kid.

UConn upends No. 1 Notre Dame behind freshman Williams' big day

Just a fantastic article.

My favorite quote which shows that her whole heart is devoted to this team.

"I was at home, and she hit the shot, and I was just devastated," Williams said of Arike Ogunbowale's game-winner for Notre Dame last March. "I wished I could be out there to help. And today, I got my chance to."

Tonight's performance by CW reminded me of Crystal Dangerfield's freshman Baylor game.

UConn did not get any of its top recruiting targets for next season, which prompted a lot of kvetching from worried Huskies fans in the past week.

Ms. Voepel must visit the Boneyard.

Maybe Geno exhorted her to, "Win this game for me Christyn!"

A visit to the Boneyard for Voepel projects doom from several posters who do not seem to be fans... and don't want to be identified when clicking on their profile. Why are they here?

“She adds a really big dimension to our team,” Auriemma said of Williams. “She’s fearless. You saw that. I was upset we didn’t give it to her more in the second quarter. I made a point at halftime to ask them why. ‘Did she do something wrong to you guys? Why aren’t you giving her the ball anymore?’ She was carrying our team.”

Let's not go too far on this.
I don't follow recruiting closely and rarely comment on it.
But is not not unreasonable for fans to be disappointed and concerned over our (apparent) meager recruiting haul for next season

CW can go right or left, and can beat anyone off the dribble. She will finish or get fouled. What a weapon if used responsibly!

So, is everybody happy with our small 2018 recruiting class? There are recruits, and then there are Legends.

When the NCAA tournament gets down to the Elite Eight I would love to hear Geno quip, "We have Christyn and you don't."

I think some people are starting to get off of your back for that long ago statement. May they have reason to forever stay off your back.

During the game, the WNBA and FIBA World Cup MVP tweeted out in support of our outstanding freshman. Pay it forward!

I can't remember another women's basketball player that was able to use either hand so effortlessly.

I think she is clearly 'built' to carry a team to a NC.

She claims to be "ambidextrious" [sic].
