Two Sources Say 2 Aggies Showing Up

For those that wanted to know who was going to replace Kia, Williams a pretty defensive stopper.
Danni or Christyn?

I don’t know how they would fit in Geno’s D, but neither Anriel nor Danni were our best defender - that was Jasmine Lumpkin- and nobody from A&M made the all-SEC defensive team. There are many reasons Blair and Starkey have been using a lot of match-up zone, which increased dramatically in the 2016-17 season.

Thanks for the intel.

Hmmm....Danni and the games I watched she defended pretty well

True but with the benchmarks (Gabby & Kia) being consecutive Defensive Players of the Year "defending pretty well" may not cut it.

Pretty well might even cut it, and they’ve both improved over their time with us. I’m certainly not saying we won’t miss them on both ends of the floor. I’m just saying if they end up at UConn, fans shouldn’t expect them to be Kia and Gabby.

I’m not saying she’s Gabby or Kia. Many on this board are worried with the loss of them on the defensive end. All I’m sayin is from the games I’ve watched Danni can pick up some of that defensive slack
 
Is Danni Williams the player Blair raved about season before last for having ice water in her veins after she made enormous plays to win a game (in the NCAAs I think)?
 
Has anyone heard anything about how the visit went this weekend? I am assuming they arrived Friday and left sometime today.

At least Geno was lucky enough to get a Chamber of Commerce weather weekend. It could have been an April snow event.

Yesterday was nice. Today cloudy, windy, and in the 30s - not so nice!

Williams had a picture with her Parents on her social media account, at a airport her dad was wearing a Uconn hat and she simple said blessed, I’m guess she was talking about a Uconn offer, Or the opportunity she has gotten to visit Uconn. Can’t say the same for Howard, she was pool side somewhere.

If Uconn can land both Williams and Howard, it would be cool to see four huskies in the 2019 WNBA draft, all four would be taken within the 1st 2 rounds.

Wonder if they were at the Spring Game at the Rent!

It was on her Instagram story, it deleted after 24 hours.
Question for those in the twitter, instagram universe or those that might be in the know like some of our Texas A& M fans:
We know A. Howard has a list of schools to be visited. Do we know if Danni Williams has plans to visit any other schools besides UCONN?

I was wondering that too ... might help us keep them at A&M. ;)

On the other hand, it might emphasize that UConn fans care more about WBB than the football-crazed around here.
 
Bad sign that we dont have a verbal commitment from either yet.
I suspect that Geno would discuss with his staff and the team today prior to making any offers.

Seriously????
agree with your "Seriously????" I think there should be a question mark or 2 instead of a statement. There is lots of time, and I suspect many i's to be dotted and t's to cross before either side of the process is sure what they want to do. Like a good wine it takes time to mature.

I just assumed that a player wouldn’t announce until she graduates, that’s only a few more weeks.

Oral commitments are not required and are not, in fact, recognized by any governing body. They're just talk. I could orally commit to UConn if I want.

Did either player tell Geno she wants to be here? I don't know but if either did, she certainly isn't required to announce it.
 
The SEC's by-laws do not allow immediate eligibility for intra-conference graduate transfers. There is a waiver process, however, so Dawn could get another shot at a waiver and this time before a friendlier audience.
