March recruiting thread 2

Unless I'm missing something it would seem UConn is not among Brynn McGaughy's final five. She has five official visits coming up: Iowa, Washington, Duke, North Carolina, and Oregon.

I don’t get it? She specifically said UConn was her dream school yet apparently has not gotten so much as a sniff from Geno and co? There must be either be some misinformation here or perhaps she is simply not seen as a need position. Too bad, as she seemed to be perfect for us. Wishing her well. I think she’s gonna be a real find for whoever gets her.

That is interesting. I wouldn't totally rule it out based on this, but it certainly doesn't look promising. I thought Macy also had indicated an interest in Uconn, maybe she or Somfai were ahead of Brynn on the list of potential 4 types from Uconn's standpoint. It is also possible her decision might be affected by players in the class before (Sarah), or the class after if they were potential competitors for playing time.

Anyway we did have one player in Nika who committed to Uconn without making a campus visit, and after she had announced a final list that did not include Uconn. We were late to the party there, but once Uconn offered Nika made a pretty quick decision and skipped her possible official visits.

Maybe she’s already visited on an unofficial visit?

All top schools and two very high academics as well. I was liking our first position on the left until I realized the schools were also listed in alphabetical order!

If McGaughy has dropped UConn, Lara would be just as good a get. Listed at 6’4” and moves really well for her size. Eager to see her in AAU this Summer.

I may be wrong, but I think the limit of 5 official visits was rescinded in the past year. That list of visits may not be her final 5. It could be just a start on her final 12.

The updated list shows that she has an offer from UConn.

Be hard to visit 12 schools in a month though. She's taking these trips in May and according to Brandon Clay is planning on making a decision prior to the summer.

That could be true because of a 2024 addition (Sarah), or another 2025 recruit at her position we are still on the short list for.

just a reminder why she's a UConn target...............a 6'3'+ forward with a bag full of offensive moves and a great shooting touch

Are there any highlights of her at IMG playing with Kelis?

Plus she's got really quick feet. In that one clip, she does travel... maybe in a few others. She'll have to work on that with Jemelle.

She's aggressive and athletic for somebody that size plus she clearly has been well-coached based on how she moves on the court

Confirmation of Lara at the game today. I think she may have enjoyed herself.

 

[MilfordHusky]

Appropriate song for Lara--Dreams. Is that her father or coach? Bringing an adult can be a sign of serious interest.

Not her coach, so likely her dad.
