Taurasi said the same thing their junior year. They were both prophetic. I hate to look ahead when we still have games left, but looking at what we’ve got (with no one leaving) and the uber talented players that are coming, UConn should be the consensus preseason number one ranked team in the country.To quote Rebecca Lobo before the 2015-16 NCAA's (the Big Three's Junior Year) "They better get them this year because they won't get them next year."
Huskies are stacked for the next few years.
Taurasi said that also, but during the end of their junior season, because of Stewart. Sorry Carnac, you must have been posting while I was also posting and beat me to it.To quote Rebecca Lobo before the 2015-16 NCAA's (the Big Three's Junior Year) "They better get them this year because they won't get them next year."

They are good but not as good as Paige + Azzi together ...South Carolina’s not bad this year and .a great class coming in next. Stanford the same.

All they have to do is play up to their potential. Hopefully there will no postponements or cancellations, and all of the scheduled games with the top ranked teams will be played.
Next year . . . And if we're not, we can always put up a BANNER saying we are or should be. It's important to emulate SC's class act.UConn should be the consensus preseason number one ranked team in the country.
We just corroborated each other’s post.Taurasi said that also, but during the end of their junior season, because of Stewart. Sorry Carnac, you must have been posting while I was also posting and beat me to it.
On paper if we are as good this year, and have more coming in next year, we should be the best, but you have correctly identified the only two programs that might be close. Beyond these three I suspect there will be a significant drop-off to the next tier.South Carolina’s not bad this year and .a great class coming in next. Stanford the same.

Let's try the half full instead of half empty approach! Enjoy the ride, even the pot holes. Sheesh!!The only thing we know is that they will beat BE conference teams by 50 points. That doesn’t make them ready. Watching some of these SEC games we know there are some teams that are good and ready. Right now we know that UCONN is good. As has been the case in recent years, lesser teams were ready. I don’t see anything changing because the talent level gets better. I hope they are both good and ready.
I would favor Stanford over SC in a neutral site game.South Carolina’s not bad this year and .a great class coming in next. Stanford the same.
SC only loses 1 player and adds 3 very good ones. they have like 13 good players, Stanford and Uconn also at least 12 deep. How do you play all the deserving players. it will be a challenge. it's harder then one thinks to give playing time to so many. many will think they deserve more, or there family will think that.South Carolina’s not bad this year and .a great class coming in next. Stanford the same.
SC will be playing with baked beans, however it will be xtra hard shooting over the Stanford Red Woods , no one without supreme guards will have a chance at beating them.I would favor Stanford over SC in a neutral site game.
I think it was "...my grandma, and she's been dead for 10 years....."The funniest Geno quote is when he told Kara Wolters at halftime of a game that she got just as many rebounds as a dead person buried in the cemetery, or something close to that.
