No UConn

Your Kitting.

 

[NYCHUSKIES]

Good.. I rather Cassandra Prosper or a Delaney Thomas than Kitts... Kitts game is cute, but not Uconn cute. Just my opinion.

 

[Bone Dog]

I agree. She doesn't fill a need we have. At 6'2", she replicates what Qadence gives us, but not quite as quick, and not as strong as someone like Liza Karlen on Marquette. Delaney Thomas is a bit bigger at 6'3" and a lot stronger, an Aaliyah Edwards type with a smooth perimeter jump shot.

it's amazing how prospective recruits go from being really good to simply we can do better when they don't choose UConn............

Never heard any recent connection to UConn yet some here can't stop posting about this player.

Louisville expects to land her. I guess we'll see.

Right, however some did speculate that Kitts didn’t have enough “dawg” in her game during USA team play. All good. Rumor is she has always been a Louisville lean. Good luck to her except when playing UConn. Well embrace what’s ours, what’s not, no so much.

 

[Charliebball]

Who said she was good???

she's certainly a good player with a bit of an unusual style...........of course unless I missed it, we have no idea if she was even offered by UConn.....

 

[Alydar]

Well folks, Kitts is no longer a UConn player of interest so unless you want demerits you better not mention her again. (unless she changes her SOI's)

 

[Mdoggie]

I’d like to know if there are any “UConn leans” keep in mind I will not get invested because of my mental health due to what’s her name.

UConn POI ( at least on this board), Riley Stack, has committed to Coastal Carolina.

There are surprises, there are shocks, and then there is this.

I must say it'll be cool for the fans of that school to have a prospect of that quality on board though.

Local video and article on Allie Ziebell ('24). Without naming them, she told this outlet that she received offers from elite programs--best of the best as the reporter put it--after her recent AAU run.

Good luck to her.

Morgan has started following Egyptian U17 player Jana El Alfy (6-4 F) on IG. This morning El Alfy scored 32 points and grabbed 26 rebounds in Egypt's final game against NZ. For the tournament, she averaged 16/11.

El Alfy is being heavily recruited by Louisville. Jeff flew to Egypt to watch her play/visit and El Alfy was recently in the US and visited Louisville and Cincinnati (not sure if there were other visits).

Nice! What would be her classification? ‘24?

Nice! What would be her classification? ‘24?

2023 I believe.

No idea if her recruiting is still open or whether she's ready to commit to Louisville.

 

[CocoHusky]

Do we know if anyone on the UCONN staff made it to Hungary for this tournament?

Might have the potential to be a Nika like recruiting situation, where other top programs showed interest, and that peaked ours, and we made a last second push.
