November 2020 UConn Recruiting Thread

Ms. Barker. Come on down.

 

[visitingcock]

She's a HS junior, female version of MJ. Ridiculous talent.

MJ? Which one?

to me she looks like Magic. Could play any position on the court. Handles the ball well and makes great passes. Shoot a fade away inside or out. Big enough and physical enough to post up when Jabar goes down.

Jordan. Smooth, effortless.

Other than Brady, UConn would be fortunate to get one of the other 3 and IMO Jackson is better than Rice. I'm afraid Barker is going to be a Rhyne Howard for somebody else.

Time will tell.

Please.

Me too, my friend! We need to backfill for Paige and Azzi.

First time I've seen video on Barker, I like her. She can run the fast break and she goes to the basket with the ball held high in one hand like Maya use to. I never saw Maya get that shot blocked. Barker is the kind of player that can put you in "early" foul trouble with those drives to the basket.

I can see why some here are high on Barker. She's nice. A 6'2" F junior ranked #2 (position rank #1) in the class of 2022. She'll have her choice of schools also. I'd like to see her in person.

She looks like KD when she goes to the hoop: Fluid, ball high, sick and slick with both hands. She's nice man.

Then it's settled for me Ice, Betts, Barker, and Rice. I'm done shopping

Wow! I would be very happy with far less, partly because of the numbers crunch. As the known roster stands now, I would be happy with one from Betts, Barker and Patterson to go with Ice, and one from Rice, Bransford or Jackson. I haven't seen enough video of Betts, but wonder if maybe Barker is in fact number 1 in that class, and Jackson might be a more versatile wing fit for us than the other two.

North Raleigh Christian: The Knights have one of the state’s best players in 6-foot-3 junior all-state center Imani Lester (17 ppg, 11 rpg, 3 bpg, major Division I recruit), who can dominate a game on both sides of the court.


Imani Lester, North Raleigh Christian: The 6-3 all-state junior center is already a two-time TISAC player of the year, and has narrowed her college choices to 12 schools, including perennial power Connecticut. She is the daughter of former N.C. State basketball standout and North Raleigh Christian girls’ basketball coach Avie Lester.

Under Head Coach Geno Auriemma, Saylor will join a class of commits, that feature former St. John’s grad, Azzi Fudd, No. 5 ranked Caroline Ducharme, and No. 15 ranked Amari DeBerry.


“It’s cool cause we are all friends, and we know each other and it’s not like we’re going – how it used to be. Used to be we all reported to campus and we met each other then.” said Saylor, “I think that is one thing that is special with this group. We all knew each other previously, we’ve all gone to camps together, we’ve all gone to teams together. I’m really excited.”

Saylor Poffenbarger shares her story, leading up to her commitment to UConn

MIDDLETOWN, Md. (WDVM) – “I mean, I was the kid that was in like fourth grade, telling my P.E teacher I wanted to play at UConn.” said Saylor Poffenbarger, Class of 2021 UConn com…

Ms. Barker. Come on down.

Is there a real chance we can land this young lady? It appears she can go a long way in helping our team win some games. I would like to see her on our roster.

This podcast from PBR's Shane Laflin and Jason Key is from April but I missed it at the time.

It's 36 minutes discussing their favorite 2022 prospects. They throw every positive adjective in the book at Isuneh Brady starting at the 6:45 mark.

Lauren Betts, Kiki Rice, and KK Bransford are also mentioned.

That was a great listen regarding Ice Brady, even if it was from April! I have been hoping for some Isuneh updates, thank you for posting.
