YESSSSSSS

I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t nervous. This seems awfully quick for the injury she had. Wishing her the best obviously especially long-term which is the most important.

 

[Heytherego]

So happy for her!

I've been checking all day...and I'm a happy guy now.

Take it easy, get a few minutes in, score a basket maybe, stay out of any scrums, and then call it a night

The rest of NCAA WBB be like:

Keep praying for continued improved health, return to full strength and continuing to improve speed [beyond what all opponents can put on the court for all the UCONN women, coaches and support staff...

Let "showtime" be released for all to see & UCONN fans to enjoy!

Great to have PB back!

....Wishing Paige much health and happiness. Excited to see the team play in person at Gampel on Sunday. Hope Aubrey is feeling better each day.

Not expecting much from her but feeling...

Guess that doctors appointment went well? Probably put out there now since it's going to be the first question on the Coach's Show which starts in 10 minutes.

G-D BLESS….FABULOUS, ANY BETTER WOULD BE A SIN.!!!!

[The CDR-Ret]

So sad that I can only LOVE this once!!!!! I intend to be happier after this first game out of the blocks [with or without a brace - PB is better than any one from St. John by a country mile!]....

 

[Blueballer]

AWESOME. It will great if she can log a few minutes in each of the last 2 games and ease back in (Though "ease" may not be in her vocabulary)

A couple of months ago I posted this comment:

"I've started thinking of this season as an egg salad sandwich. I like bread but I hate egg salad. We started this season looking scary good. That's the bread on the top of the sandwich. And with Paige and the other walking wounded projected to return by February we may finish this season looking scary good. That's the bread on the bottom of the sandwich. But for now, we just have to eat our way through the egg salad in the middle".

Well, it looks like we've finally finished the last of the nasty egg salad and it's all going to be delicious going forward. And a lot of us are looking forward to the feast.

I'm excited for Paige.
I'm excited for her teammates.
I'm excited for the fans.

Guys, I'm just freakin' excited!!!!

Go Huskies!!

Best news we’ve had since she went down.

She's back, but don't expect her to go 40 minutes. Geno and CD will monitor her minutes these next two games.

 

[Vowelguy]

Wow, did not expect this!

 

[Charliebball]

I hate to be a killjoy, and no I'm not a doctor and no I don't think that Geno or the med staff want PB to get reinjured but.......I really don't get it........she was favoring the leg a week ago, doesn't seem to be moving that comfortably the other day and now she's coming back with two games left in the regular season against St Johns when she's clearly not needed? My preference would be for her to continue to practice with the team at least until the first or second game of the Big East Tournament........
