Of couse the most satisfying solution here is for both Allie and Morgan to take huge leaps and ball out.

Maybe I'm misreading your post but aren't there 7 scholarships openings for 2026 (Azzi, Serah, Caroline) and 2027 (KK, Ashlynn, Ice, Ayanna)?

Stronga12- - --Ice has 1 injury year left for her knee freshman year and Ayanna has 2 injury years for her knee then shoulder her sophomore and junior years!

Anyway I just saw on Twitter that Jerzy isn't considering UConn anymore because the official visit didn't go well. That would also explain why she didn't post any pictures on Instagram.

I wouldn't read too much into Twitter, it's filled with low basketball IQ fans and pundits. If Jerzy was looking for the social media hype & entertainment on her visit with UConn, not gonna happen. Geno and the crew move in silence and are about business. The kids have to be the right fit. UConn does not have to go out of character to land recruits. UConn will be good either way. We still have two TOP #12 recruits from 24', big guards on the roster for three years with Ziebell and Cheli.

A very reliable source. Whether you choose to believe is totally up to you, but I haven’t been led astray in the 6+ months I’ve been following by this person yet.

Why not tell your source? I always consider the following
when considering Fact and/or Opinion: 1. "Who is saying it?".
2. "Who or What is the reference source for the above mentioned "WHO"?
and finally, "Cui Bono?" REF: Cicero = (somewhat loose translation):
"Who stands to gain/benefit?" or, if you prefer: What is the spin here???

I can't recall ever hearing how a visit didn't go well. I mean 99% of these things just involve rolling out the red carpet? Btw...Twitter is the den where all sin originates.🤣

It’s “Skim Milkey”. I hadn’t realized how ambiguous my message was since we had discussed them earlier in the thread. My apologies!
 
My guess is Jerzey’s NIL number and
UConn’s were way too far apart.

We will never know of course. Ah, the joy of modern recruiting
 
Jerzy posted pics visit to SC. I'm curious to know what happened in the visit to Uconn for her nor Bjorn to post anything. Vukosa posted the pics two days after the visit.

I don't get it. I follow Skim Milkey, Talia Goodman, and 94 feetWBB regularly on twitter. Going back to look up a post regarding Jerzy being down to two from Skim Milkey, I couldn't find one and went back as far as the Big O's announcement on the 21st. I don't have paid subscriptions to anything there, but find it surprising that if it was down to two, it wouldn't be shown for all to see.
 
We have two openings left. If Jerzy says no then there is the Portal or save a spot for the following years class. As much as everyone believes but UConn isn’t for everyone. Storrs is small. People go to Hartford to work then go home. Boston is an hour from UConn. This sounds like the CT Sun story. Some kids may want more excitement while they are in school. They all say that they want to win a championship. But realistically there are only five schools that have that chance to do so. Wishing Jerzy the best with wherever she decides.

Agreed, Jerzy may be seeking a more active college life outside of just the basketball focus. As Tina Charles eluded to with Big O, 'Go to the best place for basketball'. Not all kids feel UConn is that. I'm cool if she commits and good if she doesn't. We still have Allie Ziebell #7 & Morgan Cheli #11 recruits from the 24' freshman class. Allie is a flat out scorer that seems to be carving out some minutes in the rotation for this year. She was recruited to fill the void of Azzi's scoring, 3 PT shooting. We saw Morgan's initial potential last year before injury sidelined her. Still waiting to see if she plays this year, but for 26'-27', her and Allie will be vital pieces regardless of Jerzy's commitment. Both are big guards like Jerzy.

UConn doesn't promote their visits on social like SC, LSU etc. They run a tight ship. Olivia only shared pics she took with Tina & ONO. She posted the official visit pics only after she committed. Serah and Kaleigh did the same in the summer.

Not true. The portal’s visits is a another dinamic. Olivia shared the Charles and ONO pics on oct. 10, posted the official visit pics on oct. 15 and posted the commit on oct. 21. A normal dinamic for a recruitment official visit.

Someone has a truly wild imagination by thinking there is any chance she would start on a team with Shade, Quinones, Ziebell and Cheli plus the possibility that Sara Strong would play the three. She wasn't even in the rotation for the U19 team. Neither Robinson nor Bjorn showed anything special on that squad, particularly in comparison to Hall and Davidson. IMO UConn would be much better off pursuing two European players.
Expand ...
Simply “Liking” this post would not give it the support it deserves. I too watched every FIBA game wanting to see both Jerzy and Bjorn only to see them relegated to limited minutes. I do think the coaching of that team was underwhelming but I also was not overly impressed with Jerzy’s and Bjorn’s skill either. I was impressed by Heckel though. As @Vowelguy stated, I don’t think elite players worry about competing so Jerzy and Bjorn will go
Where they feel most comfortable. That said, I would prefer having her but also know the portal changes everything to fill gaps in your roster. If not UConn, then anywhere but SC….or Tennessee. Just sayin….

Thank You! I appreciate your clarification and admit that I
missed some of the earlier discussion.... I also apologize for my
oversites. ... Excelsior!

Don't disagree that Jerzy would be unlikely to start as a freshman but I don't read too much into her not being in the regular rotation on the U19 team. She's two years younger than Heckel, Davidson and Betts, one year younger than Bjorn and some others. She's certainly a step below Hall, who's the same age. But in two years, could Jerzy be on the same level or even a higher one than Jazzy Davidson is at today? Sure, why not?

Actually, it was the coach's choice. She only gave Jerzy 6 minutes in the SF and 0 minutes in the Final, so it's not something that should be demanded of Jerzy, because she can't produce without being on the court. While those girls were playing in the U18 Americup to qualify for the U19 World Championship, Jerzy was playing in the U17 World Championship, where she was world champion, MVP, and scoring leader with 21 PPG. Jerzy arrived later on the U19 team, which is why she didn't have as much PT.

,I don’t know if this has been mentioned previously, but something else to consider with Robinson is she has a deal with Nike. It’s my understand that SC work with Under Armor, LSU and UConn are both Nike schools. I’m not sure that’s a big factor, but something to keep in mind. And then LSU is pretty deep at the G/W position. There may be more minutes for her at UConn to start the season, compared to LSU. Robinson directly mentions in an interview with regards to her choice of school that coaching, tournament performance, offensive style of play, other players on the team, support system, building her as a woman, and an organization with faith as important. She also mentions that NIL is not a huge factor for her, something that will come along with the basketball. I may be bias but all of those things to me scream UConn…top

SCar’s contract with UnnderArmour ends this season. They will be a Nike school when Jerzy enrolls. I don’t know if it matters but A’ja’s new Nike contract is somehow tied in with Scar’s. Of course, Paige is also Nike but Angel is Rebok.

Does it matter? Well, all three schools are Nike affiliated so that may have influenced her official visits but I don’t think it will influence her final decision.

We have a close relationship with Jerzy’s agent, Klutch Sports, but they are gonna advise her on the best deal and I doubt our agent friendship will matter. I didn’t with Juju for example.

The 6'4" girl from france and the Spanish center who is now going to school in the states are both options. I love the French girls game. If we don't recruit a guard I wonder if we try to get smith in 27'.

Total fiction. The competitions were in different years.

No, did not think of that. I watched her play many times and she did not seem like a UConn type recruit. I watched her actions on the court and did not like what I saw. Just a feeling I had.

Could be. But I still have a "feeling" that Jerzy may be a future
Huskie. I read some of her comments (in an interview or
article posted, somewhere, during the last few weeks). Her
quiet approach to her selection process and some of the
comments have reminded me somewhat of Sarah also not engaging in
any early "reveal". I have no true evidence. I just felt the
need to give another opinion. My batting average is not
too high, but I did hit a home run in little league once in
a blue moon. Let the "prognostications" continue!
And HAPPY HOLLOWEEN to all the BONEYARDERS! Z
