Qadence

2 Game Compilation..

I always enjoy the comment " nothing but net!"

I am so happy for Qadence. She found herself in the spotlight and acquitted herself well. Life is full of little moments like this one, and she met her first challenges.

All I can think of is "You go, girl!"

Quadence's form on her deep shot from the 3-point area seems excellent. It's smooth, no hesitation, with an superb high arc trajectory. I feel good when I see her about to release it. As much as I like Caroline, I feel her form from the 3point area is more of a low angle "shot-put" type attempt.

I agree. Caroline is very nice and does some good things, but I guess I do not see why she should be a starter. In almost every “big game” she tends to get lost. Lots of driving to the basket with no plan, often resulting in turnovers. Loved what I saw from Q today and aubrey also brings great D.

In the POST GAME PRESSER Geno said " There is no way that Carol is not starting the next game". ( not the exact words
but you get the idea ).

Q’s shot was off, but she did swish her 2 FTs. If she can shoot 80%+ from the line, that’s a big help.

 

[Ozimoto]

I wonder if she felt any pressure to score knowing that Azzi was out for the game? Remember, this was only her third game and not everyone is KML. Even Caitlyn Clark has a bad shooting night once in a while.

I agree that Shade can be a quiet force. But here is my fear; Geno tends to type cast players. And he early on labeled Shade as a fine player who can do everything, but who has no natural position. She isn't a big ( clearly ) ; she isn't a wing ( pretty clearly ) and he doesn't see her as a guard either. She is simply a fine basketball player who has always beaten anyone who she came up against. But I fear Geno sees her as having "no position." So, she will play before Inez or deBerry get in a game, but not against anyone who matters. I think Geno has already under-rated her, and feels he has better options. Not letting her get off the bench against NC State confirmed my fears. Please tell me I am wrong. I think she is better than anyone imagines.

In hindsight, you’re wrong. ;^)

Ashlynn played quite well vs MD.

So I guess UConn players can use 'X' during the season now?

Within the last year, I've seen a few tweets from the players, but it's mostly reposting UConn stuff. They mostly use instagram.

Q is only going to get better each practice and game. Her confidence is such a joy to see out there on the floor. Q is going to play a huge part in the continued success of the program.

She's a frosh so ups and downs are to be expected. She's only going to get better. I called her the sleeper recruit. No complaints here.

Yeah I was surprised to see players posting on social media. Carolina posted on IG. The good part is, I guess, they are not on those platforms a lot, I hope.

Yes! Q's shooting form is pretty flawless. I am sure there are some shooting experts out there who might disagree but she is at 44% from deep and 45% from the field overall. Free throw, Q looks automatic. Smooth shooting stroke.
