Message: [QUOTE="ConnMotors, post: 4991141, member: 9800"] Recruiting is just like playing chess. You have to plan 2, 3 and 4 moves ahead. We know that Geno is still looking to add another player for this coming season. Chances are it will be a tall wing or a post and possibly be a junior with two years left of eligibility. If that happens then we have a filled roster. This brings us to the 2025-26 group of players. Who will go and who will stay? As much as I want to see her return I don’t see it happening. Paige loves college but this will be the overall #1 draft pick of a lucky team. Yes, I’m pulling for Connecticut, New York, Minnesota or Seattle but that will be unlikely. We have two others that will need to make a decision. What are Azzi and Caroline going to do? Next years graduating class should be just as talented as this past years. Do Az and Car believe that they can be first round picks? Depending on when they return to action will have a lot to say. But I think that both should return for their injury year. This should open up two spots with Chen leaving. Who does Geno bring in? Several names have been mentioned including Johnson, Knox and McGaughy. But things get interesting for the Class of 2026. This flock is full of feathers and they come in various shapes. Assuming that everyone stays then we have 4 shoes to fill. Every time that I login to the ESPN recruiting page I smile. You have Jerry, Olivia, Jacy and countless more. I have not seen Nans target list in a while. But which players have received offers from UConn besides the three that I just mentioned? This will be a fun group to watch. When does the 2024-25 season start? Not soon enough. [/QUOTE]
