Serah Williams Commits to UConn

​
A two-time All-Big Ten First Team selection and the league’s defensive player of the year in 2024, Williams should start alongside Sarah Strong in UConn’s frontcourt. This past season, she averaged 19.2 points, 9.8 rebounds and 2.3 blocks per game, reaching double-figures in all but two contests and totaling 14 double-doubles.​

Wow, what a perfect addition.

(of course, we are still doomed.)
 
Just read this sentence from another article. Implies that there are expectations for Heckel as well:

"UConn coach Geno Auriemma has made it known that two players have officially visited and will most likely commit to the Huskies. One such player is Serah Williams, a former Wisconsin forward who averaged 19.2 points, 9.8 rebounds, and 2.4 assists per game in the 2024–2025 season."
 
Also, there’s a good reason why UConn never publishes a picture of a recruit or transfer in a UConn uniform prior to their official commitment…,,because if you do what LSU did with Williams, and it doesn’t work out, your program looks really dumb and amateurish.

As I said in one of the other threads about Serah, we'll know when it's official, as UConn is not about the flash. :D

Does anyone really UNDERSTAND how dangerous this makes UConn!!????

This allows postionless Sarah Strong to play the 3. we all know Geno loves to play 3 guards.

KK (or sub in Ash)
Azzi
SARAH
SERAH
Jana

Hahahahahahahahhahah it’s kinda comedic

Let’s just pray everyone stays healthy. See you all in Phoenix.

GO HUSKIES

Absolutely worth the wait.......Thrilled to be wrong again!! Contrary to public opinion, I think this will be great for the long-term growth of Jana, Ice and Gandy....

If I were Geno -- don't worry, I know I'm not -- I'd have said to Serah that part of her responsibility next season will be to mentor Jana, Ice and Gandy. Maybe even have as an expectation that the big girls have their own regularly scheduled 3v3 game. No littles allowed.

Of course, this is also probably the reason I'm not the greatest coach of all time.

It's wonderful news! She averaged about 20/10 on Wisconsin this past year.
That was on a mediocre team where I bet the ranch that she was THE focus
of every defense she played against. She'll have more room to operate at UConn with
shooters who needed to be guarded. Serah played well against Betts of UCLA....the best college
big early in the year. No expectation that she will be a Betts for us....but I do expect her to elevate
our offensive game...bigtime.

Our returning bigs will have the opportunity to play with her on the court and when Serah sits.
Geno will figure it out.

AND...let's get Heckel too for guard depth!

Just checking: Serah has one year of eligibility left....correct?

Im hoping Kayleigh commits too. She would be a very good replacement for Paige. Your Bliss doesn't matter !!!!!!

I been thinking about "KK" and "K9" .... beautiful thoughts!
May it come to pass. Oh, my first wish was for SERAH....
"When you wish upon a star...... Makes no difference who
you are... " But the BONDYARD was universal in the
same wish. NC # 13 ? = A "Baker's Dozen". Thank you,
Serah!!!

Keys to NC #13: SS, Azzi, SW, Blanco, KK, Ash,, Jana

Key Support for NC #13: Ice, Allie and 3 "if they're healthy's-MC, CD, Ayanna

Time to grow, learn and enjoy the ride to NC #13: Kelis Fisher and Gandy.

If K9 comes; she would be a strong addition to the Key Support group . I wonder if Charlie C still has SC as the top seed next year? If so, what's he smoking?

Positions:
5--------SW and Jana ICE, Gandy
4--------SS and Blanco ICE, Ayanna, MC
3--------Azzi, Ash (Blanco) CD, MC
2--------Azzi, Ash Allie, MC
1--------KK MC, Kelis Fisher and 'K9 if she commits'

My guess for a true three guard line-up would exclude Jana and add another true guard (three point shooter). Jana would back-up Serah.
