LInk: How UConn women's basketball newcomers can help Huskies this season and beyond

"Lou’s been steady like you would think because she’s played so much college basketball so she looks like she’s been with us years," Auriemma said. "And we’re gonna be relying on her a tremendous amount. … When she gets the ball, she just has a knack like she knows exactly what shot she has to take and how to get it. That’s just really fun to watch."

"Ayanna has skills that no one else on our team has athletically, basketball-wise there’s some work to do, but in terms of just pure what she can do physically, it’s different than anyone else on our team," Auriemma said at Big East Media Day. "Hopefully that translates into the basketball end of it and if it does, then we’ll have a pretty good player on our hands."

On Ines: "When she’s good, she’s really good," Auriemma said. "And when she’s not, she’s trying to catch up because this game is being played at a much faster, much more physical style than she’s used to, but she surprises these guys a lot by how sneaky quick she is and what a good athlete she is.

Lou is all we expected, Wonderful! Ines, I expect big things from her. Her talent and intellect is all I hoped for. Ayanna, isn't yet what may BY'er excepted, but her potential is beyond great.
Enjoy it very much.
