Megan Walker Speaks

[RockyMTblue2]

“I don’t expect to start. I’m going to be a freshman again, so I expect to work for everything, but I like to compete and I like the challenge,” she said. “Being around players that are better than me will push me even more.”

Players that are better than you AT THAT PARTICULAR MOMENT. Hopefully they won't always be better. Love this young lady.

I knew from the beginning that she could be UConn material...........And her comments have made it crystal clear.
" I don't expect to start. I'm going to be a freshman again , so I expect to work for everything." Spoken like a true UConn recruit. Expecting nothing , but willing to work for everything. That's the attitude that greats are made of.

Get ready to raise a banner in Walker's honor in Gampel for this young lady in 4 years.

GO HUSKIES!!

Megan will be a great fit in UConn system.
She may help UConn for another 4 NCs.

Jordy is right. Gabby, Lou, et al. will be better than Megan next year, but Meg can be their equal or better in time.

Meg is right in that she will not start, but she will play big minutes and become the starter at SG when Kia graduates. Meg can learn a lot from the coaches and her teammates. When Geno rags on Meg, Lou will explain and help her, because she has been there.

hopefully Shea as well. She's known to coach guards, yes?

Megan will contribute and do so early. At what level and with what frequency is tbd, but she's a pro's pro. We saw it with KLS, KML, even Maya. Hopefully we'll see it with MW.

They have all been there. Don't be surprised if one of the other freshmen learns the system before Walker does.

Under Geno, 'twas ever thus ...

Love her comments, love her attitude, love her motivation, love her awareness of her future teammates, love her game. What's there not to love about this young lady. Glad that she's a Huskie.

So what you're telling me is there is a lot about MW that's lovable...

 

[bags27]

this is far the most maturely that I, at least, have heard her talk. I'm sure she's grown up quite fast in the past several months, as most high school seniors do. She's put all the ego-inflating recruiting behind her and is certainly pointing toward UConn with the right attitude. It's going to be awesome following her and her cohort for the next 4 years.

 

[Kaizen]

UConn girls are just different than others ....lovely and intelligently

 

[RSHERMVIKES]

With the team mates she'll have to practice against everyday MW will improve quickly and by leaps and bounds!

 

[ricky]

Micheal Jordan told all the other greats on the dream team, "There is a new sheriff in town". That's where Megan will be very quickly.

 

[Shorty Dee]

That's the kind of attitude freshmen need to have. She might not start, but with her skills she will get playing time. Whether she is the 6th or 7th off the bench, I believe she will have an impact on the game.

Yup. It's the Cycle of Life.
