Lou is a pro

Great interview. C'est la première fois que je l'entends parler français. C'est quelqu'un de très cool avec l'esprit vraiment ouvert.

Does anyone know if Lou has met Gabby? I imagine that they would bond easily.

Lou, Gabby, and Bria can bond over Geno stories.

Bria Hartley could have been the next great U.S. point guard. Now she plays for France.

Et, en plus. Elle est francophone. Chouette, ça!

Owl, that!

Coming to UCONN has been great for the Huskies and Lou. UCONN got a great player and professional attitude. Lou got seen for the talent she is. Hope to see her next year in the WNBA. First round...

Rooting for Lou to get drafted by Seattle so she can graduate from Aubrey and Nika to play with Gabby and Kia.

As a Washingtonian, that would be sweet...

What was the actor’s name again….?

I see what you did there.

Lou is a pleasure to watch. I also marvel at the fitness of this team. Four starters over 38 minutes only to come out due to 5 fouls.

I was at the game yesterday and witnessed the manhandling Lou was getting from multiple defenders. Beside that, the defense was really close on her, and she just couldn't get open and when she did, they were rushed shots that didn't come close to going in. In the second half she was amazing, doing everything she could to score, and even though they weren't giving her the 3 point shot, she found a way with great ball handling and moves. When I watched the replay on TV, my opinion of her was just enhanced, being able to see her perform up close. This girl is a baller, and she absolutely will help a team in the WNBA. I'm glad Jen was in the house to witness her game, as the Connecticut Sun is looking for players with moxie that can hit the long-range shots. I am so proud that she is a Husky, and although she is just playing one year, she will be one of our players that will be revered after she graduates.

Without a doubt

Is it possible that a fact finding board of Referees from a different conference be convened and look at the SC- Uconn game and assess the foul calling? I watched the game on You Tube where I had control of the video. In my estimation I counted 14 flagrant fouls that were committed by SC that weren't called which would have changed the game dramatically into a decisive win for Uconn. Again, is this possible? GO HUSKIES!!!!

No

Sabrina showing support for LOU. Game recognizes game!!

Remember the experts on this forum who said she would get limited minutes in blowout games? Wish I remembered their names.

But they were correct...she gets limited minutes on the bench (to rest) in blowout games, maybe.

Lou is fabulous..no drama just does her best for the team. I was at the game yesterday the SC defender was all over her actually at times pulling her by her shirt! But somehow Lou was able to figure it out! She is impressive!

Her pull back and drive to the basket was priceless

I had mentioned this on the General board, but with this thread, it certainly bears mentioning here. It still remains to be seen how this will work, but it could be argued that she is a free agent in WNBA terms having gone undrafted in 2018 before she started at Fairfield. There are other talented foreign players who have started in college the year that they turned 20, but other than maybe Tiana Mangakahia after her 2019 season, there has not really been a player who would have clear interest from teams for a direct signing.

From her perspective, there would be pros and cons for either determination. As a free agent, she would be able to pick whichever team she wants and she would get to sign before the draft. If she has to go through the draft again, there is a more favorable initial contract with benefits to being drafted higher, even if there are longer term possible differences. It would be fun to see teams mob her right after the season to try to get their contract offer in front of her first.

Coming out of Fairfield as the conference player of the year, Lou might have been a third round pick or signed to a training camp contract. After what she’s done at UCONN, she’s mid-1st round to mid-2nd round. And climbing. Go Lou!

Just hope Dorka has a productive last 2 months at UCONN and improves her draft position.
She has worked very hard and has dropped to mid 2nd - mid 3rd . She did not have a great performance in the TN and SC games.
—-March will be super important for Her

Will Lou get a framed jersey on Senior Night? Dorka already has one, and if Aubrey decides to come back, Lou will be the only participant leaving, although I would love to have Dorkas parents here to see her play for the last time at UConn. (Excluding tournament of course)
