So Piath is not 6’7” good to know. Jamelle was just trying to give the peanut gallery something to talk about when she said that.

The difference in how strong Liv looks here to her freshman year is very noticeable to me.

Aubrey really does look so athletic, no one else on the team comes close. It reminds me of Gabby’s years at UConn.

It's so nice seeing Jamelle in this picture!

Yea, looks like ONO has been hitting the gym.

Well, if Piath is 6’7 then Liv looks to be around 6’8”..... I agree completely that Liv looks fantastic. She’s filled out her frame, appearing to gain a significant amount of muscle in her arms and shoulders.

Aubrey will likely get the start at forward to begin the season, but Aaliyah is going to be pushing her all year. The game on Saturday can’t get here soon enough.

One surprising upset pictured. Mir wins “best smile” over Christyn.

These freshmen have no fear......

 

[Kaizen]

ONO looks 6'6.5" and Piath 6'5.5". ONO must add lots of weight and strength and I have a feeling she will have a great year.

 

[HGN]

Paige also looks stronger.

Paige indeed looks stronger . Her arms are not skinny looking as they did in HS.
And Autumn has gained a pound or 2 as well. Don't tell me those are muscles in her calves?

Let the height discussions begin.

For those who would appreciate a caption...

Bottom Row (l-r): Mir McLean (#11), Paige Bueckers (#5), Evina Westbrook (#22), Geno Auriemma, Christyn Williams (#13), Nika Muhl (#10), Autumn Chassion (#2)

Top Row: Chris Dailey, Assoc. Head Coach, Aubrey Griffin (#44), Aaliyah Edwards (#3), Olivia Nelson-Ododa (#20), Piath Gabriel (#32), Anna Makurat (#24), Jamelle Elliott, Asst. Coach, Shea Ralph, Asst. Coach.

Impressive that you can estimate down to 0.5" from that picture.

 

[DEpup]

Yes Liv looks much bigger than last year and I'm surprised at Nika's size. I feel like her film showed a smaller player but she looks about Sue Bird size. Anna also looke a legit 6' 2". Not sure what they were thinking with her stats last year. Maybe a mess up of centimeters to hartley unit conversion.

 

[bluedevil]

ONO's bun looks like it touches the net...is she 7 foot tall now...

Autumn looks like Liv could put her a snack cracker and eat her. It is all a matter of perspective though. I think Autumn is like 5'8". Hardly as tiny as she appears.

Let the height discussions begin.

Each year going forward whenever UConn takes their annual team photo, the Huskies should invite Bria Hartley to be part of the picture so that she can serve as kind of a measurement scale.........

Or take the photo near the exit of a Seven-eleven.

They have an official HU measurement full size cutout available for team height certification. You just can't see it just off picture....

To make this height estimations official, every UConn team photo should come with a Bria Hartley cutout next to Chris Dailey.

Embarrassing. Just saw this after I made my post. Great minds...

 

[Go/huskies]

Wow to think this roster could still be intact next year, and it’ll be 4 new players added to the mix, the huskies are deep.

Well I didn't put it next to CD so clearly we were thinking completely different thoughts.

Height is important and it’s certainly nice to see several players towering over Jamelle. Now if they can be nearly as tough as she was the Huskies will be in excellent shape. No doubt she’ll be trying to instill that toughness in this group.

 

[MilfordHusky]

Some semi-random thoughts:

--It's a great looking bunch of people and coaches.

--Love the uniforms.

--Mir will usually win the smile contest. It's in her genes.

--I'll be interested in seeing how much Autumn bulks up over 3+ years. She's rather slight, but reportedly a knock-down shooter.

--Liv appears to be about 6'6". Other than her, the official heights for the back row look accurate.

--Paige looks close to 6'0", Evina's height.

--Paige's arms are bigger than I remember. So are Liv's!

--I think Nika has been listed at 5'9" and 5'10". In this photo, she looks taller than Christyn, who is 5'11".

--I miss seeing "Guns" Dangerfield, but she's off in a different world now.

 

[Alydar]

Bueckers has broader shoulders than Westbrook and sits at the same height.

We'll have to try and get a view of the team lined up for a pre-game anthem. They always line up by true height.

Thank you Jcoton for that great photo.

 

[Steelerone]

Wow, Ono looks like she will be more than capable of navigating the center position against any "tree" out there.

Thank you Jcoton for that great photo.

I just did a screen shot and crop of the page in the media guide. I wish I saw it sooner. I t makes the season a little closer to normal.

 

[JordyG]

Paige also looks stronger.

As a high schooler she couldn't have looked skinnier. Any improvement is a plus.

Batam, they might tower over her but I guarantee you that all of them would think twice before going up against her for a rebound even now. I looked up the word "tough" in the dictionary. Low and behold, Jamelle's photo was next to it.
