I can understand her leaving. It may have been a bit premature however looking at our roster and next years 2 commitments playtime would be a problem. Saylor good luck. Your a great talent with a great future in BB.

I was commenting on the speed with which they removed her. It took them until the day before the Arkansas game to finally post the media guide, but only took what seemed like a millisecond to remove Saylor.

Actually it's pretty typical. I've noted it in the past. The season is on and the media staff are all in place. Very easy to delete content.

I hate that she wants to transfer.....But having depth at any position is a Coach's dream. That's why coaches recruit multiple players at a position, to guard against injuries , foul trouble , and unfortunately , transfers.

I truly wish her well wherever she lands.

You definitely proved that a little while ago!;):D
 
Having watched Say play 3x in high school and spoken with her personally, I'm a little upset and disappointed. But I understand her decision. She has to be frustrated about the nagging injuries and not having an opportunity to show her skills. Best wishes to Saylor!

I think when Ice and Ayanna signed, it made the depth chart look even tougher. Perhaps her decision was an indication that Ciera Toomey is coming.

I don't know if Say considered Maryland, but I'm sure that Brenda would love her. I think Kelly Graves will take a hard look. Saylor's BF is at Oregon and he may be a future NFL QB.

Makes sense. Gonna be a solid college player, wasn't going to be here considering Ducharme who's a very similar player but better only got 4 minutes in the opener. Was going to be hard for her to get minutes being in the same class as Fudd and Ducharme.

Wish her the best. She did follow Arkansas and Jersey Wolfenbarger on Insta, and has the Oregon connection, though both of those teams also have the long shooting wing position covered for the next several years too (Oregon with Parrish and Arkansas with Goforth/Wolfenbarger).
 
I do have a hot tip that she has a good relationship with the head Coach at Vanderbilt. She would probably start immediately and get coached by someone who has sent numerous guards to the W. And Nashville is just a short ride from Maryland. I think I'll mention it to Shea when i see her ;)

Wow. Didn’t see this one coming mid-season. I will be rooting for her going forward and I wish her the best.

I’m sure she could see where is on the depth chart. She should have red shirted this year, built up her strength, and taken care of her nagging injuries.

She still could have redshirted this year. I'm not sure it would've mattered. And for someone who has played minimal BB for the past 2.5 years, she may not have wanted to keep waiting.

Summer: "Saylor is a sharpshooter who will be a key part of the UConn's unstoppable 3-point attack."

Now: "I can understand why Saylor transferred given the players ahead of her."

Doesn’t always take that long to contradict themselves

Not if I can get to JR Payne first...
 
Maybe she got depressed when she looked over her shoulder at the Arkansas game and saw her replacement sitting behind her. I don't know, maybe, huh?

Her top 6 included Maryland, Oregon, Missouri, Tennessee, Oklahoma
 
Geno said she was going to see a doctor today, or yesterday maybe. Anyway, maybe it was bad news and redshirting this year was her only option. If that was the case, the decision was an easy one considering the players we already have on the roster. A girl with her talent isn't going to practice all year with not a huge possibility that she would be playing much next year. I think she made the right decision and I wish her all the luck in the world. Now the only down thing is that she will probably hook up with one of our rivals and haunt us till she graduates in 4 years.
 
She left high school early also. I wonder if she affected the Kiki decision. You know, sometimes things just don't work out. She doesn't appear happy but she did appear to try to be positive on the bench. Look at Nika. She was in a similar situation and she just worked harder. My gut though tells me she is more of a tweener. Not a ball handling guard and not ideal as a forward. She could have succeeded in a team fashion but was never going to be a star at Uconn so she decided a better fit was available somewhere else and she's probably right. The best thing she can do is to stay positive and move on.

There was a brief shot of Saylor on the bench yesterday during the game. She looked unhappy. She seems like a good kid. I hope wherever she ends up she is happy there.

I noticed the same thing and commented on it to my brother. I wish her well and hope
she finds the right situation to continue her basketball career.

When I saw videos of her play in HS and how much she loves to come to Uconn, I had the idea that she was going to be my new favorite Uconn player. Sad to see I won't get to see it:(
