Not going to worry too much about that until Boston and Jones make their decisions. However, if the Huskies end up with a 2019 class of 1, I would expect the transfer welcome mat to be out next spring.
CB, I know you’re the resident BY worrier, and I respect you for it. As for me, I prefer walking through the jungle with a warthog while singing, “Hakuna Matata.”
I don’t think we are disagreeing substantially. One question would be: What’s the measure of class size—those signing LOIs or those playing 4 years at UConn? Comparing the 31 number and the 23 number suggests that we need to start with a higher number to account for injuries, transfers, or misses in recruiting. I think we can get by with 2 healthy, productive players per class, but starting with 2 means that we need to bat 1.000 in selecting kids and get lucky with injuries. Also, as good as some of our teams have been, a serious injury to a key player could have resulted in a Final Four loss instead of a NC.
I don't remember any Brunelle "social media signs" but I do recall that she wanted to come to UCONN according to an "insider".
Does that make you the meerkat in this scenario? Probably not the cub with a name like oldude.
I see you are a "Boston" fan, but if Boston is a "generate" player (I'm gonna assume generational here), what does that make Jones, Horston, Brunelle and Owusu?
Thanks. Maybe, this visit will be the clincher.
If you combine the rankings (PN, Bluestar,HG), Boston is 5th. Haven't got all of the ASGR's yet to add them in.
Maya and Dee. Every year? That is more than a big if. I appreciate your optimism, but you are swinging for a fence too far. You must be a Kipling fan.It is if you get the right two. Two ballers with high BB IQ's and a ferocious work ethic (like Christyn) that can come in and "get it" right away, and contribute right away. Like Maya or Dee. If you can get two players of their caliber every year, you're good to go.

I believe Horston is #2 at ASGR.
In addition to the concept of Boston being a generational player which has been properly challenged there is also the aspect of her winning multiple championships at ND. ND is an outstanding program but it does not have the recruiting pedigree for delivering #1 prospects that even the UCONN generational players had and needed to win multiple Championships. Don't forget that Stewie had #1s KML and KLS a number #2 in Mo Jeff and #6 (former #1) in Morgan Tuck. Maya of course had Tina Charles and DT had Ann Strother. ND has never had the #1 player in any class, Haley Jones will be UCONN's 10th overall number 1.
Not exactly true. Muffet successfully recruited Michelle Marciniak in 1991 or so, but she left for Tennessee after her freshman year.
