If she wants to improve her game and have the best chance to make the pros, she'd pick Uconn. Although, she could do an A'ja Wilson
 
With Aaliyah still on the roster, is a scholarship available for another player?
 
North Carolina and Duke have been added to the list since everyone had her going to UCONN. I think now that those two schools may hold an edge....but who knows.

I picked Duke. I don't believe she is coming to UCONN but I have no clue. SHe is perfect for this team. Everything is set up perfectly for her at UCONN. She has the chance to be the #1 option in year 2 on a powerhouse team playing in an open offense with a coach that loves coaching offensive basketball with an enormous hsitory of all-time success on team level and pro level. An Offense that fits her style with players that support her style from all over the floor.

Notto mention the #1 option player would prefer to pass the ball to her rather than shoot. The # option will set up a player liek neveer be set up before. :)

Per my latest count, yes, as she'd make #15, and that's w/o any announcement from Aaliyah.
 
IMHO Aaliyah as Nika did will declare for the WNBA!
She is ready to move on!
With Nika and Aaliyah gone that leaves 12 on the roster.
With Morgan and Allie that's back to 14!
With Sarah that would make 15, the limit!
I'd sure love to add Chen somehow!
Creative bookkeeping?

I read a few days ago that Paige is estimated to be pulling in about $650,000 a year from NIL. And she's done a lot of very good things for others with some of that money. It wouldn't shock me in the least if she were willing to give up her scholarship if that's what it took to put UConn on the inside track to the National Championship. It also wouldn't shock me in the least if Geno and Paige have already had a discussion on that possible contingency.

I would be very shocked. I can't see Geno even entertaining the idea.
 
Some words of advice for Sara from Did You Ever Have to Make Up Your Mind:

“Then you bet you'd better finally decide!
And say yes to one and let the other one ride
There's so many changes, and tears you must hide
Did you ever have to finally decide?”

That would be a very short conversation with Geno and me. lol

Hmm. I thought that the roster for 2024-2025 contains 13 returning players (this includes Aaliyah, Aubrey and Paige as returning players) and with the 2 commits, Morgan and Cheli, this would equal 15.
As per BoneYard rules, Aaliyah has to be included on the 24-25 roster.
I will not be posting about the roster situation any more. There are many BY posters far more knowledgeable about this subject than me.

Well hell. You are correct. I was looking at wrong grid. LOL

IMHO, Paige would do this in a heartbeat if it helped the team.

I wonder if Paige and her high GPA might also be eligible for an academic scholarship. Does anyone have any info on academic vs athletic scholarships at UConn (assume full ride)?

Well now we know the whole Duke picking up steam was a real thing. I'm just glad South Carolina and LSU are officially out!

Hope we can land her!

Do we know how Duke started making inroads? It seems like they came late to the party. I know Arianna Roberson and Strong made it to Uconn's first night together, but other than that, not sure. Connection to coach Lawson?
 
To not screw with the mojo gods I am abstaining. As far as scholarships go there is talk about a UConn player hitting the portal, but I don't dabble in such and especially not here!

I believe Duke’s coach, Kara Lawson, previously worked with the Boston Celtics, and so does Sarah Strong’s mom, Allison Feaster.
