Serah Williams Commits to UConn

I'm content. Nothing else to hope for this summer. Kayleigh can come or not -- it won't disturb my bliss either way.
But it may definitely, definitely add to it. As of right now, we are probably a better defensive team than last year. With her,
that becomes a definite and we were not too shabby on D last year.
 
I am happy for Sarah, for our team and fans and especially for Geno. We saw last year what he can do with depth. He had many, many years of no depth and still got to the FF. We saw what he did last year with it. It was a thrill ride through the FF.
 
Whether Kayleigh comes to UConn or not I took a look at her stats for this past year.
BTW: she was a frosh...has 3 years of eligibility remaining....hmm!

USC was an elite team all year...losing JuJu hurt them late in The Dance.
Kayleigh played 17 minutes a game...averaged 6 points/2 assists...overall shot
46% from the floor....near 80% from the foul line.

I'd be very inclined to say 'Go Geno!
All true. Here is the thing about her that is not in the stats. Her defense.
 
Absolutely happy to get Serah, but this is just silly.
She definitely shores up a weak area, but hardly makes UConn an overwhelming favorite.
Finally, another realist. Yes, we will be better up front (maybe now 20 ppg), and Sarah will get her 15 - 18 ppg, but outside Azzi (I'll give her 15-18 ppg, because she is going to be doubled every game), where do we get the other 20 -25 ppg we lost with Paige leaving?
 
Side note question. Any guesses who wears number 25? Ice or Serah? :)
 
We have plenty of talented guards on the roster. I’d be shocked if Heckel came to UConn to play a couple of minutes a game.
Here's another perspective - players come to UConn for different reasons, however if you want to win a natty, want to play in the W, UConn is a great training ground. And even if it doesn't work out in the W, look at all the alumni that are having success either on air, or with W & NBA teams. Imaging going through a season where players aren't playing more than 20-25 mins per game, there's less wear and tear, and Geno can implement a UConn style of what TN is doing, but with his typical sets and play calling? That's why Heckel might choose UConn. I'm betting that everyone knows exactly what to expect with playing time - you earn it.
 
Hopefully Serahh will push Jana and Ice in practice to a point where there will be limited or no drop off when she comes off the floor and they enter the game!! Welcome!
sarah serah Morgan Caroline jana ice Blanca and gandy gonna make each other better. Only a little like the time, 90s? the best two teams were uconn and its bench ;)

I would expect 14-16 points per game from Serrah, 20-23 points per game from Sarah, 18 - 22 points per game from Azzi, 10 - 12 points per game from Blanca, 10 - 12 points per game from KK, 10 - 12 points per game from Shade, and 6 - 8 points per game from Jana.......hard to predict the rest of the scoring since we don't know who's getting minutes.......as long as there are no serious injuries to Sarah, Serah, Azzi and KK, UConn will be just fine from a scoring standpoint.....

Let's just simplify things.......clearly no need to go to the expense of all those games and tournaments next year....just send Geno the trophy. Same address.....as all those other times!
 
i just watched video highlight reel of Serah from this past season. She really understands how to use her big, athletic body to create space and passing angles around the rim -- in a way that our bigs can't (yet). One of the things our offense has lacked is easy points at the rim by feeding the post. That will change. She and Sara a scary 4-5 combo.

Doomed.

2024-2025 stats: Sarah 16.4, Azzi 13.6, Ash 7.7, KK 5.5, Blanca unknown, just sayin...
