Message: [QUOTE="oldhusky, post: 4988430, member: 9844"] That is an extensive list, with many players that can help some programs. The limited bigs issue is mostly from the standpoint of Uconn's needs. Those are quite different for a couple of reasons. First because of roster constraints that affect potential 2025 recruits, Uconn is probably only interested in players with one year of eligibility left, unless it is a true superstar like Beers. That probably rules out top players like Barker, Muhammed, Dauda, and Gardiner for example. Further to make a significant difference, it probably needs to be a player that could beat out current players like Ayanna Patterson and Ice Brady who were ranked 4 and 5 on Hoops Girls, which eliminates many. Now if they can't get someone that meets those criteria, they might pursue someone that might just represent injury insurance with just one year remaining, and your list has several candidates for that role. For difference makers with one year left my list would include Karlen and Dalce from yours, plus King from Pittsburg who is not really a big (6-0) but plays like one, and I want to look further at Williams stats from Michigan, who could be interesting.
