Stewie-like

[Mdoggie]

i know they are few and far between when it comes to players with her abilities. Are there any recruits out there on the horizon that might come close?

No, and we haven't won too many championships without a Taurasi, Maya, or Stewie type player on the roster, so it should be pretty interesting going forward!

Well, Geno did say that Katie Lou's skill set was Stewie-like. But what does he know.....

Neither has anyone else.

ThisJustin is right. Katie Lou is the most close one.

Pretty sure ND, A&M, and Maryland did. Granted it seems like forever since someone other than UConn has won the title, but other teams have and without a landmark type player on the level of Stewie.

Yes, by definition there will be recruits that "come close" to the DT, CP, MM, EDD, Brittney Griner, and Stewie level. Maybe Sam Brunelle or Megan Walker. The boneyard might be in trouble if there aren't any of those kids because half the fun is arguing how close to the greats the new comers are.

Conversely, there are teams that have had great players that didn't win a title - Duke (Alana Beard), Notre Dame (with Skylar Diggins), Stanford (with Nneka or Candice Wiggins), Oklahoma (Courtney Paris), Delaware (Elena DelleDonne), Serah Williams Missouri State (Jackie Stiles).... Just having a great player on the roster doesn't mean a championship or even a Final Four.

Did he say that? Man, no pressure there KLS.

Brunelle's the next big target. Skill, attitude, aptitude, close proximity to Connecticut.
