Players Entering Transfer Portal, As of March 2024

This is also y I like the transfer portal and wish in certain situations 5th years were a thing. It sucks she only has one year of eligibility. I saw an adjustment one person had to the portal would be to make kids wait at least until their sophomore year. I'd make one that if they wait until junior year or if they played in less than half the games any year they should be eligible for a grad transfer year.

Interesting idea.

Best of luck to her. I wonder if she has finished her degree? There is a good chance that she has.
 
With Amari gone, it will be interesting to see if Geno will go the portal route or go for another recruit. I’m guessing he will stand pat for now.

He already has an offer out there. I expect he’s known about all the recent events for quite awhile now. He’ll hear from Emely before anything else happens. He prefers to build long term as opposed to portal quick fixes.

There's Emily, there's also reportedly been some interest with Kaitlyn Chen out of Princeton. Or Geno may be looking for an experienced big. I'm sure the coaching staff has a better handle on our needs next year than we do.

What year would Emely be coming in and what position is she? I can understand building for the future but he could look for a grad student for one year. Paige has only so much time to get that natty! Now is the time to load up. We could use another Nika-like defender and/or back up point guard. Our awesome defender Aubrey won’t be available for a while. Also never hurts to get a one year big and experienced post. Geno should fill every single scholarship.

I guess that I am pretty ignorant when it comes to recruiting. With our current roster, why would we be interested in another 6' F/G/W as a recruit or from the portal? Aren't we already loaded?

I thought folks were complaining about front court depth not 24 hours ago. Well, another athletic 6'2" who can run the floor is definitely a positive. Geno's been quietly building a very tall team and a very quick team.

Emely is a current recruit for 2024. She's an athletic 6'2" with really good quickness and good ball handling skills. Think a bigger Aubrey.

Ok, I apologize. I just looked Emely up on ESPN and she is listed as 6'0"

I think a quality big would be the top option, if they go the portal route. The backcourt and wings are stacked, but the front court is undersized and/or inexperienced. I think many want El-Alfy to start, but she's a freshman who is coming off a torn achilles and UCONN needs to have another solid option in case she isn't ready. If I'm Geno I'd try to find a proven interior defender who can rebound and block shots.

It can be common for these to be under estimates. It appears to me that they don't change from when the kid is a middle school early highschool first registration. If the kid has a growth spurt, it often isn't reflected in Hoopgurlz.
