Edwards had virtually nothing to work with on that U19 Canadian team last summer.  I believe the score at one point was 50 to 16.  Aaliyah looked much better when she was moved up to the National team in the fall.  I'm not predicting stardom or starting for any of the '20 recruits. What I'm predicting and looking for is contributions to reduce the starters minutes to something under 30 MPG.   UCONN currently has 4 starters averaging over 35 minutes per game and that numbers is closer to 40 against ranked teams. UCONN doesn't and hasn't had a reliable 3rd guard for 3 full seasons now and Liv has no backup in the post.    What the team needs is 30 MPG of reliable guard play and 25 MPG of reliable front court play from the class of '20.    That kind of contribution from the class of 20 would have us as a the top 2-3  team in the country next year without having to rely on any 1 player being superwoman.   Mir, Nika, and Aaliyah are also quality defenders which when combined with the added depth allows you to add in game changing defensive wrinkles which are today just not an option.
