Hmmm. Wonder how this affects the other recruits like Hailey Van Lith etc.

 

[UCBaller2012]

Welcome, Nika! Her visiting the Final 4 seemed to seal the deal!

Guessing Hailey Van Lith is a no go.

wooha!
I am glad Uconn has gone international - I think there is a quality to international players that is harder to find in US players.
1. US kids tend to be less mature as US society tends to be less integrated by age.
2. US players tend to play too much and practice as a team too little.
3. US teams tend to be 'star oriented' while international players are more 'team oriented'

No question that the talent available in the US is phenomenal and with no local professional options all that talent is funneled into the college ranks. And the above list is a generalization and there are a lot of kids who are exceptions to the rule, but they have to buck the #2 and #3 points.

Well it certainly looks like the Huskies will have a couple of serious dime-dropping ladies who can shoot the rock. Now, just get us a big or two to complete the cast.

Guessing Hailey Van Lith is a no go.

If she isn't then Geno will have 3 pg's in one class.

Is she the Croatian?

 

[snlMINAJ]

so 2019-20 or 2020-21

I'm very happy to have Muhl, but I chuckle at this given Geno's complaints 20 years ago about a certain European player. It's why Geno never gets mic'ed up for games anymore.

not just the shooting.....................you've got two fairly tall guards that hustle like crazy and have serious defensive abilities...............

Guessing Hailey Van Lith is a no go.

DA!

 

[01Neaggrad02]

She is coming next year with Griffin right? How tall is she? Isn't she a great 3 point shooter? Will be a freshman?

2020 with Paige. She is 5'9"

wouldn't be surprised if she already contacted the losing coaches.....................I assume that's why UConn went the European route.....................of course as a European player couldn't she fold her tent and head back to play pro ball at any time during her four years?..................I would hope that Geno still looks for a 2021 guard who would be ready if that happens...................

She just gained an inch from my earlier post. Let's get Bria Hartley in here and clear this up once and for all.

Guessing Hailey Van Lith is a no go.

I would think she is now.

 

[MilfordHusky]

Welcome, Nika!

She looks good in a UConn uniform! She also made very positive comments on Geno.

Paige said over the weekend that she can play the 1, 2, or 3. Good strategy to help with recruiting!

 

[ABCDFE]

I would think she is now.

Isn't Uconn her dream school from her younger days?
