Transfer Idea.....

[Gordo]

From your mouth to God’s ears. But I highly doubt that would happen.
I was hoping Jones would consider using her 5th year and coming to her senses 4 years later by transferring to Storrs for the year. She can develop her outside shot and overall game. But it seems she’s heading to the W.
I wouldn’t mind Boston doing the same either. But I think she’s going to surprise everyone and stay another year in Columbia.

If SC wins another NC this year, I think Boston staying would be a distinct possibility. With NIL in play now, the W might not be more attractive than another shot at a NC. We, of course, can upset any such thoughts by going all the way this year.

I have read that Stanford has not embraced the NIL... Paige and Azzi are making more money at UConn than they would get from the WNBA. Brink might want some of that.. She could also make more money playing as a pro in Russia.

" In Russia" huh...... Have her call B. Griner.

Remember this about top players. They can go anywhere and play and start on most teams. When top players come to UConn they dont come to sit. They come here to play. When you have a player like Jana with her background she didnt travel across the world to sit. When you have a player like Yana and Ice and Azzi and Caroline and Paige they didnt come here to sit. Theyre gonna get playtime. Look at past top players they didnt come here to sit because they can go anywhere and start. Now with that said next season KK Ashlynn and Jana are all top players and they will see time because they are top players. Thats the way it works most of the time.

There are alot of teams that are happy to get a top 20 player. At UConn we have so many top 5 and top 10 players that need playtime. Players want to play for UConn because they know UConn. Those top players who go elsewhere good luck to them. One problem Geno has right now is he has Paige and Azzi and now Nika KK and Ashlynn. If your a top recruit knowing who is ahead of you and UConn is recruiting you what do you ask Geno???????? UConns roster is better then good.

Why I think UConn will win the NC this season. I think UConn can stop SCs guards and and I dont think SCs guards can stop UConns. I dont think SCs bigs will want to get in foul trouble against our athletic Dorka and Aaliyah. Now Dorka and Aaliyah wont want to get in foul trouble either so UConn may double down and Im not sure SC has the outside shooters that could contend with UConns outside shooters. If SC double down UConn has the shooters. SCs are good but not UConn good JMO With all that UConn will need their guards to rebound and Caroline and Griff give UConn something that other teams that have played SC dont have.

Why would SC ever want to double down or be afraid of foul trouble when they have Boston and Saxton and 6'5" Amihere and 6'7" Cardoso coming off the bench..both of them would start for any other team..getting in foul trouble against Uconn would be the least of SC 's worries..it would definitely be a concern for Uconn though

Brink goes to Princeton, gets her Doctorate. Berube make the title game (loses to UConn on a Page buzzer beater). Gets the Cred and instantaneously become next in line for Gino's job. If only in a perfect world.

The Athletic is reporting 6-5 Lauren Ware is in the portal. Missed last year due to knee surgery. Eligible for a COVID year, she has up to 3 years eligibility left.

Attention! Attention! The space ship is now boarding.

Do players ever transfer out of Stanford before they graduate?

Just about all of Stanford’s transfers were grad students. The one exception that I am aware of is Van Gytenbeek who we faced the other night vs Baylor. She transferred after her sophomore season.

Coach Morgan Valley is following Lauren on Instagram.

And Lauren follows Azzi, Amari, and KK Arnold. Not sure if that's from knowing each other from USA basketball or new developments?

I just don't see it. Ware was fairly unproductive in 2 years at Arizona. I can't imagine her ever seeing the court for UConn.

Ware was plagued with injuries at AZ. But when she’s healthy she can shoot it, play defense and rebound. IMO, she’s an intriguing transfer with some experience that could provide depth at the one spot that will be a question mark for UConn next season…Center.

From Ware’s perspective, after 3 years at AZ, she’s looking for a restart. I’m sure she’s aware of what Dorka has done since transferring. She also seems like a great kid. UConn has nothing to lose by recruiting her and everything to gain if she pans out.

Locked. Turned into speculation about UConn players leaving. Every UConn player is a member of the team until the player or the school says otherwise.
