July 2020 UCONN recruiting thread

Not open for further replies.
So....what happened in June? Can someone recap the significant results achieved?
 
Some of us renewed season tickets.

Many of us wished Saylor well with her hip surgery.

Most of us noted with interest South Carolina's recruiting successes.

All of us fretted over you know who and continued to hope that her BFF can close the deal.

And of course, we engaged in endless starting five speculation because of course we did.
 
Assuming they’re playing AAU with the same teams as they did last year and will be participating in AAU this summer (which I have no idea if they are), GTS Fusion (Fudd) and Philly Belles (DeBerry) have an AAU tournament in Indianapolis July 5-8.

So what has happened so far in July (July 1)?

1. Maya's work with Jonathan Irons paid off, as he was finally released from prison.

2. Jamelle Elliot signed on as permanent Assistant Coach.

3. UConn officially rejoined the (new) Big East.

These are 3 major pieces of great news! What do we do tomorrow and for the rest of the month?

I guess players from the U.S. return to campus in a few weeks. Paige will have to pack up and leave Virginia. ;)

The only players at any level I could find with more than Paige were:

Skylar Diggins: 1M
Hailey Van Lith: 619K
Candace Parker: 617K
Sabrina Ionescu: 519K

Wouldn’t surprise me to see Paige pass them up (maybe not Diggins) by the end of her UConn career.

Wanted to start this thread to get back in monthly routine of having a thread to discuss UCONN WBB recruiting.
2021- All the alternatives to Azzi Fudd have dried up with the last possibility Kayla McPherson excluding UCONN in her down select.
Kiki Iriafen has included UCONN in her top 5 and Jillian Hollinngshead has still not committed.
I would obviously love to have both Azzi and Kiki at UCONN, would like to have at least one and would hate to lose out on both.

If we measure the angles spanned by the different colleges, UConn is at 90 degrees (as well as being at the top and closest to her brain), all other schools 45 degrees.

Sorry i'm not really on social platforms. Does anyone know why Skylar Diggins has so many followers?

1) she’s pretty 1a)she’s pretty lol —she has many male followers because guys like pretty girls who can play basketball. I don’t mean this in a negative way at all 2) she turned notre dame around and gained a lot of followers from that 3) lil wayne showed her a lot of support and showed up at a game in south bend I think and wore her jersey to a concert 4) I think she was signed to nike or adidas I’m not sure and they marketed and promoted her for new products. Many young girls wore that headband that ties up like the ones she wore in her time at ND 5) she’s signed to roc nation, which is a management company of jay-z’s

Hailey Van Lith is a surprise.
 
Any up dates on Rayah Marshall? I noticed she doesn’t have a social media presence, kind of surprising for a recruit now days. It was rumored that she might have had a possible offer from UConn at one point.
