Message: [QUOTE="Alydar, post: 4370048, member: 730"] Most of the bandwagons are born and die on this board. The recent history of UConn freshmen has been exceptionally productive. The media will repeatedly start games with telling how UConn had 3 seniors graduate and then lost Bueckers. It does sound as if they are behind the 8-ball. But other than all their experience there is nothing the seniors did that hasn't or can't be exceeded by the younger players. At the end of the Stanford game I was so pleased every time Fudd got fouled and so stressed when Williams went to the line. (I was also beyond happy for her when she made both). UConn has signed three straight outstanding classes. Two of those have produced 5 players who were major contributors as freshmen. I see the incoming class + Lou as doing the same and as of now the 23 class is also damn good. There is so much talent in the 24 class that everyone is going to eat. By November most fans will have adjusted to the roster and will realize that UConn is still a powerhouse. Not as entertaining maybe but still formidable. Has NIL altered the development schedule in girls' BB? I'm just a casual observer of recruiting but there seems to have been a surge of HS players with college-ready skills. At least offensively. Riding on the Bueckers tailwind? [/QUOTE]
