According to Oregon coach Kelly Graves, the Ducks and UConn are talking about putting together a nationally-televised home-and-home series.

A series would not begin before the 2019-20 season as the Huskies' non-league schedule for the coming year is booked.

UConn leads the series with Oregon 3-0, but the first two wins came when the Ducks were coached by Paul Westhead. The only meeting with Graves at the helm came in the 2017 NCAA Bridgeport Regional final at Webster Bank Arena with the Huskies rolling 90-52 win. It was the final victory in UConn's record 111-game winning streak.

For Oregon, it was its first Elite Eight appearance. The Ducks returned to the regional finals last March but lost to eventual national champion Notre Dame.

Bain would go on to Virginia Tech and was roommates with Stephen Curry's mother, Sonya. She is the Godmother to the Golden State Warriors star. Curry's father, former NBA player Dell, is Brink's Godfather.

Brink, whose father, Greg, also played at Virginia Tech, is making quite a name for herself on the court. The 6-foot-4 forward from Beaverton, Oregon, is rated the No. 1 player in the Class of 2020 by ESPN Hoopgurlz.
