January UConn Recruiting Thread

[Crossover]

or Diana and Sue.

Diana and Sue did not begin having all night conversations and finishing each other's sentences until they lived together in Russia. Lou and Phee, were roommates and peas in a pod from day one. As for Paige and Azzi, they are already bonded long before they matriculate. All three sets have a bit of the odd couple about them, with D, Lou and Paige being outgoing and a bit mischievous, and Sue, Phee and Azzi being more sober. Or to put it differently, all three sets of friends are complementary.

I suspect that off the court their relationship would be similar to the one that Lou and Phee had.

not sure PB seems to be far more hyper then KLS ever was at least from what we know of her........

I would be very surprised if Azzi doesn't come to Uconn

 

[UconnMark]

So would Azzi, Tony!!

Saylor had some nice assists in that video as well.

Even someone who has been labelled a "Debbie Downer"( ) and one who is reportedly "predicting the demise of the UConn program" can't help but see sunshine and lollipops in UConn's future.

I think the scoreboard with 3:45 left shows her with 22 points. In just the highlights, I counted:

18 points, 8 assists, and 2 steals.

Wow, I though everyone knew that!

yes, but did you know Pinocchio was a bad motivational speaker.

Not questioning her smarts, that's why the Irwin comparison. I'll just say that I feel she's limited athletically in a couple areas that I think are necessary to play at a high level in a program like UConn. For that reason I don't see her getting the PT beginning next season to put up those kind of numbers. Maybe she'll surprise me but I'll go with my eyes and see a possible 2nd off the bench type scenario considering the talent coming in next year.

She might be limited but she's also a huge guard, at 6'1. She also has the type of swagger that is going to make her a real player. She'll be a 15 ppg, 5 rpg, 4apg type player for us at some point, I have no doubt. She fits into the rare category "baller". Knows the game, has the skills, has the swagger. If we were playing at the Y, I'd pick her with my first pick.

Are these special order shoes or can anyone buy them? I've never seen any like that before.

Two sports, no problems for No. 2 prospect Olivia Miles

Olivia Miles has shown her ability to dominate on the basketball court. It's thanks, in part, to the fact that she also plays soccer.

www.espn.com

“For now, Miles has narrowed her list to six schools: North Carolina, Stanford, Notre Dame, Oregon, Princeton and Connecticut.

Miles' recruitment likely would be over if coach Courtney Banghart hadn't gone from Princeton to North Carolina.

Miles' initial plan was to commit by the Boo Williams Nike Invitational, but that's in late April, about three weeks after she can start taking official visits. Her new plan is to commit by August or September. Only four of the ESPN HoopGurlz Super 60 have committed.

Whichever school lands Miles will gain a unique blend of talent, skill and size.”

Very interesting mainly because many of us including me had written off Miles & Citron as potential prospects for UCONN. If her criteria is to have as many of her family see her play then UCONN has the 2nd best chance “geographically” speaking.
