Not sure if this is a prediction or if they know something we don’t.
They are also saying Hailey Van Lith is going to Tennessee

Jeez you sound like you know the habits of the majority of the posters here. And the last time I checked there was only.3,562 threads.No lineup analysis, please. Use one of the other 3,563 threads for that.
UConn recruiting speculation welcome here
My point was if you're a top player like say, Beers, and you're in the portal, why make a lateral move (for the sake of discussion).Well, but you’re measuring stick about 95% of the coaches in this country don’t get it done
I could research it, but I doubt there are 20 active coaches. It actually made it to the final four.
What do each zero
TCU does start with a "T" so they are in the vicinity alphabetically speaking....They are also saying Hailey Van Lith is going to Tennessee
Agreed! I would say: UConn, South Carolina, or Notre Dame would be the ticket for a One Year run.My point was if you're a top player like say, Beers, and you're in the portal, why make a lateral move (for the sake of discussion).
We did lose Nika to the W. So she could have an important role, particularly early in the season. The freshmen and the injured players may need time to get back to form.I’m guessing if Chen is in Storrs now Geno is explaining that she’ll play behind KK at the point. If she is okay with that, she’s got a spot. I can’t imagine any scenario short of injury in which Geno moves KK for a grad transfer, or shoves the freshmen further down the depth chart.
Would Chen accept those terms — 10-15 mins off the bench? I suspect yes, for the same reason Lou did. It’s a better launch pad for the draft than almost anywhere else. And injuries are always possible.

Lou may have done just as well. She was often “assaulted” since she was a scorer. Maybe with less injury she would have achieved as much or more! Hope she is back in action for the next WNBA season.
I recall Geno saying that when he first saw Lou practice somebody was going to lose their starting spot to her. And that was before all the injuries. So maybe she wouldn't have gotten quite so many touches without all the injuries, but she probably would have been a starter and an important contributor.We will never know but scorer or not, she would not have gotten the touches that allowed her to score as much because she would have been the 3rd, 4th, or 5th option if Uconn was fully healthy.
The Oregon State moves beg to be studied as a whole. With (currently) a 2 yr move to WCC they probably got the Geno recruiting spiel from Rueck.My point was if you're a top player like say, Beers, and you're in the portal, why make a lateral move (for the sake of discussion).

What if Chen is better than KK though? Would KK accept getting non-starter minutes? I like KK but Chen is very good tooI’m guessing if Chen is in Storrs now Geno is explaining that she’ll play behind KK at the point. If she is okay with that, she’s got a spot.

I hate it when people count Beers when we're out.I’m still not counting Beers out.
I don’t know where Chen might play, or if she starts or comes off the bench. But I believe we would be better with her on our team.The Oregon State moves beg to be studied as a whole. With (currently) a 2 yr move to WCC they probably got the Geno recruiting spiel from Rueck.
'Stay here together and I'll schedule some brutal out of conference games, we'll set a goal to win wcc league and tourney, and we'll run it back going for the win at ncaa'.
If they kept it together, they were a potential final 4 team. I personally thought they were best in PAC this year!
Once one player entered the portal though, this plan went down the drain.
Now the question is how many of them can transfer together? Could say 3-4 go to one school? Everyone says this, but the OSU group had a very close team.
If they all instead go their own solo route, UConn is perfect for Beers (or Gardiner)...but she likes the West, likes power 4 schedule (it's fun to play 18 tough league games and a tourney), and who knows what her academic and nil concerns are.
So going as a group, or just some non UConn personal concerns are reasons for a lateral move. But the match is really perfect, if she does choose UConn - both for her position and competitive demeanor. I'm still hoping.
Chen I don't get. We have 3 tiers of great guards. Paige/Azzi, KK/Ash, Allie/Morgan plus wings who can play guard in a pinch Caroline/Aubrey/Strong.
