Kate Koval enters portal! UConn interest?

[Rings R Us]

I have seen Paige flex and shimmy granted Miles probably does it more but at UConn she would dial back that type of action. If it’s not the big from Wisconsin, then I would take Miles in a heartbeat. I believe she has something to prove. I agree that Koval is not right at this time mobility is an issue and hopefully we get OV to UConn

I'm with you, I would take Miles in a heartbeat too!

Notre Dame is hemorrhaging players! After the shocking announcement by Olivia Miles that she is leaving, comes the news that their prized 6’5” post has announced her departure as well! She is joined by Emma Risch, a 20th ranked three point specialist. Could Geno be interested? She (Koval) was heavily recruited by UConn before announcing her choice of ND. Notre Dame is down to 4-6 players, some of which are rehabbing injuries.

I hope we can get 2 from ND , my priority is Miles then either Koval or Watson … ND is now down to 4 players .

The real prize is rising senior Olivia Vukosa. I don't think any of Vukosa's 7 schools will get Koval.

I would not risk any move that jeopardizes Olivia VUKOSA coming to Storrs.
How can I know what the tea leaves will say a year from now? What I
would REALLY like is Olivia to give a verbal commit ASAP and allow
me to get some real relaxing sleep!!!

And you will wind up with a broken heart.

Koval's final 2 out of HS were ND and LSU

But idk if she would go to LSU tbh even though their entire front court is wide open tbh

Tbh ? You mean you have made posts that were not honest? I hope she chooses LSU and leave UConn alone.

I can't imagine anyone transferring from the Golden Domers having any interest in UConn.
But a few years ago I had the same thing to say about Tennessee...and when a Lady Vol came to Storrs, we know how that turned out.

I don't think traditional bitter rivalries mean what they used to. Not with the way players are hopping from one team to another all the time.

True. It looks like many players that enter the portal do end up with a team in the same conference, which surprises me.

Koval was not any better than Jana, and seems a bit more lumbering. I think there's less upside to her game over the next three years.

Can she make a basic tip-in and shoot 60% on her free throws? Asking for a friend.

Agreed Serah makes much more sense as a one-and-done post player to give at least ONE current big another year to develop into a true starter.

 

[RSHERMVIKES]

I agree with the above posters that want UConn to stay far away from Koval & Miles from ND!
I really want Serah Williams from Wisconsin to sign with UConn!
I have seen many of her games and she is a fantastic talent plus she seems to carry herself like a UConn player! Well spoken, etc.
UConn doesn't need a heck of a lot of pieces to their current roster!
With the 3 signees this coming year and the chance to get O. V. the year after sets them up really good!

Idk, social media jokes that Jewel is basically an honorary husky based upon her connections and moves
And who knows, maybe Olivia wants to play closer to home for her last year

I regard to interest in Kate Koval, why ? We have our center Jana. Kate has been coached to be a center her whole career and Jana, being the best player on team Egypt, played all over. Considering this, I’m more than happy to have Jana who is extremely hard working and coachable. I think comparing these stats will back me up.

Or maybe a player has developed a certain animosity towards their program and wants to go to one of their rivals.

Guessing this thread can get locked/closed. Koval committed to LSU per the Transfer committ thread on the general board.

Surprised at this one......I know Kim likes her bigs but this is going to slow that LSU offense down big time......
