I have proof positive that this was no official practice. Pheeza has her shorts waist band rolled!

 

[Kibitzer]

To be fair Jewell Loyd took until the final game of her season to determine that she was going to forego her final year of eligibility.

Ahem.

Suggest you forgo forego.

Ahem.

Ahem

You need to get updated.

 

[ChicagoGG]

On the subject of fairness, if Morgan says she is staying and getting her masters degree, it is only fair to take her at her word. It is unfair to her to doubt her word.

Who does she think she is A'ja Wilson?
Where is CD when all of this is going on?
Has the UCONN standard changed?
Also not an official practice because both teams are wearing same color shirts- Seriously that is an NCAA rule!

 

[CocoHusky]

Wow! KLS blocking Gabby's shot? It is possible that neither player will start for UCONN. Put either of them in a different conference and each would be contending for Conference player of the year. This team is so loaded!

I think it is Stewie blocking Gabby, not KLS.

On second look you are correct.

On first look too.

I was going to ask about the uniform colors and how do they know which team they are on. The NCAA is so silly with all these rules that deal with the minutiae while missing the big picture.

I know nothing about NCAA rules in this matter but I am familiar with UConn practice procedures. Players all start practice wearing same color jerseys (e.g., blue). When scrimmaging 5 on 5, half of the players pull on a white jersey over the blue one.

When scrimmaging vs. guys, the boys wear white tee's.

No public changing and NO old-fashioned "shirts" vs. "skins."

I'd like to see a pic of Natalie next to Stef. They are both very pretty and about the same size.

 

[uconnell]

It is remarkable how much Natalie Butler resembles Sue Bird.

... The NCAA is so silly with all these rules that deal with the minutiae while missing the big picture.

Ever consider that maybe it's intentional?

Butler is 6'5", Stewie 6'4" and KLS 6'3". If those 3 are in the floor, who can stop them?

Not in a nefarious way. It's generally a sign of an overengineered bureaucracy collapsing under its own weight.

 

[JavaMan]

Why not go all the way and also use Tuck and Boykin (both at 6'2") as guards. What a lineup that would be!

Jefferson is 5'6" and nobody can stop her.

nice to hear:

Two-time national champion and UConn graduate Kaili McLaren at workout today in Storrs. Have never seen her look better.

Very subjective but I think Kaili was/is the best passing BIG we've ever had. And we've had a bunch of good ones. This might be a great topic for a separate thread

 

[Kaizen]

Moriah is the best PG in the country (may be ever) that everyone agrees....

 

[Huskies Rule]

Moriah IS unstoppable, g-rex ...unlike your goombah Luca

The way I have seen it works for these pick up games is you are issued two shirts one with sleves and one without. If you have to switch teams you switch shirt but thy must be the same color until the start of official practices. The NCAA is famous for minutiae. My Daughters team had to self report an NCAA violation because the team's Director of Basketball Operations miscalulated the amount of a team meal- She was off by 63 cents total for 1 team meal at Longhorn.

Luca lacked guickness.

And KLS DOESN'T - she looks great in a "regulation" practice shorts

Kaili had a lightening like look away pass. Lots of fake outs.

Have you seen Butler has lost quite lots weight too?
