I want her here at UConn so bad lol

It is getting difficult to keep up. At this rate you are going to see some schools with as many or more transfers than high school or junior college recruits. I’m really not liking the direction this is going.

I thought she was going to try to go pro. for some reason I thought this was her fifth year already. In any event I'm a fan. Can help a lot of teams, and one more year can help her improve her playmaking. But she has good size and is always ready to shoot.

@CocoHusky ??? I know, three years too late. But I really liked her coming out of HS.

With Paige, UConn is simply a basketball factory

How so?

FSU fixing to be wiped clean

Wow...is this a large vote of no confidence in the new coaching hire at FSU? Some entered the portal before the decision was announced, but some after. The players are obviously familiar with her.

Mississippi State absolutely jammed the ball inside to McCowan.

With the exception of that weird dribble/drive weave game in Columbia, I never thought Miss State was particularly difficult for SCar to defend.

You just needed to keep TM off the boards...easier said than done and obviously very difficult for teams without size.

Mississippi State never prioritized interior play to the degree that SC does. Vic's lineup usually have 1 big and 4 perimeter oriented players, where Dawn usually has 2 in 3 out. McCowan even as as senior was 3rd on the team in FGA, and a good number of those FGA were from offensive rebounds. They never prioritized her in the same way SC prioritized involving Wilson/Coates or even Boston this year. It's not better or worse but different systems altogether. SC usually defended well against Mississippi State, but MSU averaged 81 per game in 2017-18 and 86 per game in 2018-19. That's solid offensive production any way you cut it.

My big question is if Latson stays or reopens recruitment. She was excellent in the McDonald's AA game.

Some may have the mindset the grass is greener elsewhere. While I’m sure the players like her I imagine most went to FSU due to Sue. Not hard to imagine many want a fresh start after the coaching change.

But this has become the norm now in college sports

I think you made a good point. In Clark’s case, she was a homegrown talent. With Paige, UConn is simply a basketball factory. With Brink, I’d imagine it’s hard for anyone to turn down Stanford and even harder to leave once you realize what you’re getting on the court and in the classroom.

Factory shmactory ---> coaches and the program preparing the players for next steps. Not even listing all the programs status of NCs, , etc, etc.

It's interesting. I mean, Brooke Wycoff has been promoted to head coach, and she coached all of these players last season when Coach Semrau took a leave of absence. Why the mass exodus?

Rumors going around about Kennedy Brown from OSU may enter the portal

That or the WWE. In either case....bright future.

True.

It's like free agency. So all I know is that Kim better be on the phone and going for the big fish.

 

[nwhoopfan]

Well, the NCAA doing what they do best...creating an absolute mess. I might be pulling a "you kids get off my lawn," but I can feel my interest in the sport starting to wane w/ masses of players leaving many schools 2 years in a row now.

 

[UcMiami]

With all the transfers being announced, it hits me that it is only a very small percentage of players I recognize as hot recruiting prospects out of HS - the ones from Oregon and ND for example. A lot of mid-level HS players that aren't that tempting for a really good program unless you are desperate for bodies.
