Summer session starts on June 2

How will we have any idea about how good we can become without having Blanca in practice. In my view, having Serah, Sarah and Blanca on the same team and playing at the same time will almost be unfair in the college context. Almost, WNBA level....

Did you notice that the best player in the country in that age group isn't wasting her time this summer? That is Sarah Strong. After getting stiffed for PT by the same coach in last year's U18 tourney she's taking a pass. I don't blame her at all. Moren from Indiana is the same genius that was pressing man to man with some starters in the 4th qtr of games when leading by 60+. Must have thought she was getting them prepped to play the US Olympic team.

Sarah was on the 3x3 team earlier this summer, I don’t think you’re allowed to do both in the same year.

Players can compete in separate USA BB events as long as the dates of the tournaments don’t conflict which they didn’t this year.
 
On paper we look great for 2025-2026 but on the court these players will take time to jell together. I’m pumping the brakes until we get to November/December as Geno and the staff have a ton of work to do in figuring out roles and rotations with so many great players at their disposal.

Because they’ll be back on campus the end of August.

Yea, you’re right. A lineup with only Sarah, Serah, Azzi, Ash & KK will be lucky to beat Xavier, let alone ND, SC or UCLA……. :rolleyes:

Gee I guess no one will feel sorry for UCONN when we field a confused team, without a full summer of having Blanca. We are doomed, for sure. ;)
 
I didn't forget to mention Azzi or KK when I made the comment about Serah, Sarah and Blanca being WNBA ready. I simply don't think Azzi and KK are WNBA ready, like the other ladies. That doesn't mean they won't become WNBA players one day, but now they are not WNBA ready. But Serah, Sarah and Blanca could be a WNBA front line now. In the college context, I think Serah, Sarah, Blanca, Azzi and KK form an unbeatable roster and should take Uconn to NO. 13. Obvioudly, this is just my view..........

Wait.... What??!! Azzi not WBNA ready. This is mind boggling to me. And Blanca?? How do you know whether she is or isn't? The bits we've seen in highlights doesn't tell much
 
If Blanca turns out to be as good as many of us hope and suspect, the we'll have a roster with at least 8 future draft picks. Azzi and Serah next spring, Ash and KK two years later, Sarah Kayleigh and Morgan the following spring, and Blanca the year after that. I'm withholding judgment on Carol and Ayanna, as well as Jana and Ice, not to mention Allie Gandy and Kelis.
 
I based my observation on whether Azzi and KK are WNBA ready on all of the great guards there are presently in the W. Not sure they could go into the W and play now. I think Serah, Sarah and Blanca could play up front in the W now. Just my thoughts......

I would say AZzi is WNBA ready… she will be in player of the year contention if healthy this year.. she can shoot , handle the ball , drive to the basket and play defense…

After her MOP award in the FF, if Azzi was available she would have been a top 5 pick in this year’s WNBA draft, perhaps as high as #2 behind her BFF.
