Laksa? Collins?

Was looking at her stats and was shocked to see her FT shooting in her 3 games this season. Missed as many FTs in 3 games (10-14) as her entire previous season (111-115?)

Strange, but a small sample. Her 96% had to be close to a NCAA record.

While I really liked the idea of Laksa as a grad senior at UConn, that was prior to Geno’s flurry of activity to bring in Ania, Evelyn & Evina. If Laksa shows up as well, Geno will have one hell of a challenge finding PT for everyone.

If they run around a lot, maybe we can conceal that we have 6 players on the court.

If you can’t get a 6’6” player, get 6 players who are 6’0”.

Agree Geno should at least inquire about Laksa as its hard to turn away a player of her caliber. I think she's a better outside shooter then any player currently on the UConn roster and that would add value. I don't know how the current players would react and Geno would need buy-in from all the players currently on the team. Laksa is not coming to Storrs if she's not projected as a starter.

No inside info, but I wouldn't be surprised if she ends up on ND or Miss St. if she plays college ball next year. If she loves Florida, Florida St might be an option. She will end up at a team capable of getting to the F4 and winning a National Championship.

Jose's team was and is known as an excellent passing and spacing team, which partly compensated for Laksa being slow of foot and gave her open looks against a lot of teams. Put a really decent defender on her and her game crumbles. What sense would it make for her to play another year in another college - can she pick next year's champion this summer? I hope for her sake she has left the college scene.

ND maybe, but Miss St has no scholarships to offer. And probably have to ax a player if Moore decides to go there.

I’m sure Laksa has already made her decision. She just hasn’t told us yet. The message she sent out yesterday has a very familiar feel to it, similar to the ones released by Ania & Evina prior to announcing their decisions to attend UConn. I had suspected that Ania & Evina’s farewell messages may have been coordinated by Geno & CD.

It may just be a coincidence that Kitija’s message has a familiar feel. Then again it may not be a coincidence.

...and KML was quickfooted, tenacious defender? Umm, I think we could find a spot for her given all the other skilled position players we have. We don’t have a deadly outside threat Crystal Dangerfield aside. I would love to see a team put its best defender on Kitija and leave MW, EW, Crystal Dangerfield to do their worst!

@DefenseBB at least put ONO on the court! ;)

To be fair, I should have included as “a 5th person” but the person that would cover Laksa as a defensive specialist would not be the person covering Liv. That would leave lesser skilled defenders trying to cover are better skilled guards and wings. I hope I am not coming off as pedantic (I do need another cup of coffee from last nights softball and NBA games and excitement). :)
 
If Westbrook is not granted a waiver and Laska wants to come to UConn, I hope Geno takes her. I believe Laska would be as productive a player as Westbrook would be. She could be a big help offensively.
