You all have to get with the program. The P5 Schools can pay these kids to come and play for them, indirectly. The same thing that happened with men's basketball is likely happening here. South Carolina, ND, Stanford, etc all have big ESPN money rolling in while Connecticut is giving ESPN tax breaks. UConn will not be able to compete with the dollars likely given under the table to these recruits by P5 Schools.

Everybody gets the compensation that the market says they deserve.

“The market” is a mystical entity that does not exist. “The market” has dictated a whole slew of inhumane travesties, unfair advantages, and raw exploitation since the advent of capitalism. “The market” is not a justification for anything unfair because it’s THE MARKET that creates disadvantages.

Great points. I was just wondering because in terms of how many BY posters have been upset we haven't secured a recruit in the top 30 this year. My contention would be that because of her injury and how well she could play this year in her final season at HS she would potentially end up at a higher (more commensurate ranking to her ability) ranking before she joins UConn.

as someone who followed AG's career pre ACL injury she most likely would have been a top twenty ranked player maybe even better if her outside shot had kept on improving.......

1) So are you saying WBB players are “disadvantaged” because not many people will pay to see them play?

2) Are you advocating a different economic system?
