Isuneh “Ice” Brady, one of UConn’s two signees in the class of 2022, was in attendance with her high school team from San Diego, Cathedral Catholic. Brady and her team were participating in Hoophall in Springfield this week.

Auriemma said he liked what he saw from the 6-3 post.

“She looked a lot better than she did this summer,” Auriemma said. “She’s a terrific shooter from the perimeter. She’s a really good passer. She really understands the game a little bit. She moves with a purpose. There’s no awkward steps in the way she plays. And she competes. Her conditioning’s got to get better, like every high school kid. So by the end of June, that kid’s going to help us a lot next year. A lot. A lot. She’s got a great way about her.”

Dunmore's postponed game against top-25 St John Vianny took place today and Dunmore was shredded, down 30 at one point.

Just 9 points for Ciera Toomey.

No shame in that because St John Vianney is a stacked team. They have a pair of top 40 kids Madison St. Rose heading to Princeton and Zoe Brooks formerly of Trenton Catholic with De Rosario. Brooks has/had interest from South Carolina.

Yup can see her at the elbow and they will not be standing 7 feet away from her. She can shoot from the area and that will open the inside for Geno's offense. I think it is a great recruit. Can she set a good pick is the question? I would think so.

The broadcast from this game was cut at the beginning due to technical issues. KK didn't play the last 12+ minutes of the game in compiling the above stats which included a school record for 2-pt FG shooting (14-14).

The truncated video has to be viewed at YouTube for some reason so click on the link below.

 
Question on Ashlynn Shade- when does ESPN show her in 2023 recruiting as a UConn commit? Does she have to sign a letter of intent first?

Olivia Olson will be in Eugene for the Oregon-UConn game as well as two other recruits per reliable Oregon sources.

Are those high school players going to be there because UConn is recruiting them, or because Oregon is? Or maybe both?

Both. Olson HS class of 24 specifically is getting an early start and has already visited some schools including Iowa.
Cunningham '23 has also visited Oregon is former HS teammates with current Oregon Pao Pao, and Has UCONN and Oregon in her top list.

BTW, in that video on Toomey above she mentions her biggest improvements have come in dealing with contact and that she avoided it as much as possible in years past. Brings back stark memories of Breanna early on in her UConn career. And it's no surprise that in her game yesterday where she scored just 9 points that one tweet mentioned St John Vianny was very physical with her, fouling her 4-5 times early on. Think that's what she's going to face at the beginning of her college career. Hopefully Geno can use Breanna as an example for her. :cool:

She spent two days at Oregon State and two days at Oregon. That is all I know.
 
Oregon is a pretty campus. It's appealing in many ways. Academically not so much. They accepted EVERYONE as of just a few years ago. It reminds me of being recruited in high school where 3-4 friends of mine visited a school with me and the coach took us to the admissions department and just said "accept these guys will you" to the admissions director. The admissions guy looked ruffled but he grudgingly said ok. Then the coach turned to each of us and asked us all if we would join him. He started at the other end of the line but wanted me as I was the only all conference guy. Every one of them said yes but I said no. You should have seen the look on his face as he just got some guys who didn't even start on our high school team. Later on they played for his team but they stunk. Girls teacher college. 6-1 girl to guy ratio. It was appealing but not enough.

Great stuff. More P & J!!

And she claims to be 6-4, reinforcing previous recent reports. Yahoo. Maybe she'll grow still more in the next 12-18 months.

Who better to serve up the best tasting PB&J than Paige and Azzi. I think that was a sly hint. :)

I'm getting real interested in this kid. I've heard she's mobile and kind of knows what she's doing. I hope some video starts to surface.
 
New quotes from Geno regarding Ice Brady's performance he witnessed last week, this time from Carl Adamec:



On Friday, it was Auriemma who took the opportunity to watch Brady, a 6-foot-2 senior forward from San Diego ranked No. 5 by ESPN in the recruiting class.

"They ran an out-of-bounds play for her and she knocked down a three," Auriemma said. "That's unusual for a kid her size. That's a great thing. She's so comfortable shooting it. She is left-handed, and Jamelle (assistant coach Elliott) thinks that's an added skill, because it takes the other guy awhile to get used to.

Hopefully you noticed the steady regression of Amari's rankings where she went from an "elite" prospect to "coveted"to P5 prospects from HS Freshman from 2016 to 2019. Amari is a project in the sense that she will need to elevate her game to get back to elite status.

And hopefully you will realize that the biggest young teens playing against unquantified competition and brandishing inflated statistics doesn’t mean diddily; which renders the rating agencies and these recruiting threads useless.
