I was happy KML went 3rd. Reasonably pleased Stokes went 11th---but she should have gone 8th--maybe they didn't see the same Stokes I was watching all year and read the anti-hype that Stokes "cant" score. She can. We'll see won't we~~~
Nice that KML has Sue to mentor her with Seattle--I was happy for MaLott (Dayton) going to Wizards, she's a very good player and top notch scorer (although Uconn stopped her dead in the second half).

1st Round draft pick for Dayton shouldn't hurt the newly-tattooed Jim Jabir's recruiting.

Not a big fan of EW. Overhyped and under coached ! Love KML. in seattle.

My impression of E. williams too. Stokes stopped her scoring (uc vs Duke) and defensively in that game Stokes was head and shoulder (big shoulders) above her. One over rated the other under rated--you decide which.. I too am pleased with KML to Sue Bird..
 
Shouldn't miss draft picks because of commercials. Maybe more tolerant of the interviews. What's not tolerable is they're not recapping the picks they have missed.

And that make me very happy if Dayton and Jihar gets more great recruits --they are a very competitive team, great for Uconn to home and home play and great for the game of WBB..

- Kiah goes 11h !!! Congratulations and good luck, She is a carbon copy of her new head coach Bill Laimbeer- a defensive bruiser, rebounder and shot blocker. Gotta work on the "O."
- Happy Kaleena going to Seattle- Being on the West Coast she will be much closer to home and family after giving us 4 incredible years back East.
- What a team UConn is, what a super bunch of kids- being there supporting and cheering their 2 graduating teammates....seeing Moriah, Saniya, Gabby, Kia, Natalie and the rest in the stands was beautiful.

Oh my God! You take that back. Kiah is nothing like that that miserable, whining cheap shot artist.

You know if ESPN wants to air the draft, even online only, it would be nice if the would actually show all the picks.

Agreed. The 2nd and 3rd round are spotty at best with coverage.

At one time MS peck was high on my list, she seems to hate everything UConn. Not much of an analyst, maybe I'm familiar with the best , that's why Lawson get my viewing time. Did she ever actually watch Stokes play?? Lambeer was a banger if he couldn't beat you with talent he banged he way thru---Swin had him as a coach for a few years but left--hope this works for Kiah..
 
Lauren Mincy to New York too at #27. Thought maybe she would go sooner than that.

Only in the sense that Lame-beer was as relentless on the defensive end as he was impotent on the offensive. But you have to admit, seeing Kiah rock the stage in that skin-tight "dressy-thingy" was..... OMG !!!! It understandably impaired my ability to think clearly, thus the Laimbeer comparison.
 
I expected Sara Hammond to have been chosen...her senior season didn't meet expectations but she's a stellar athlete with a high basketball IQ.

Ok draft for Chicago. Almost got lucky and got to take Parker and Gray. With Fowles' situation up in the air, it was more important to take a 4 that can play 5 rather than a 4 that can play 3. Don't really know much about Parker but she's basically taking Gennifer Brandon's roster spot and she can't possibly be worse than Brandon because Brandon couldn't do *anything* at a pro level besides run and jump.

I don't really know that Laney or Welch will make a difference, but Welch is a tough cookie. She's worth at least a look in camp.

You got a scouting report on her? I'd love to hear it.

Laney is kind of like Stokes as far as a shot blocker goes. She can also score. I think she'll be just what the Sky need. I went to several Rutgers games and was always impressed by her.

She didn't look too excited to be picked by Conn.

maybe she reads the boneyard :rolleyes:
 
Elizabeth Williams must be happy as hell. She finally gets to wear a "Connecticut" jersey instead of getting destroyed by others girls wearing Connecticut jerseys.

[and after all, it is the secret dream of every Dookie (and ND player) to wear the UConn Blue]

-I'm in Manhattan every day, so catching lots of Swin's and Kiah's games will be a no-brainer.
-Try this BSchwartz, it got me to the 2nd and 3rd rounds.

Thanks Orang.....I had not heard that she was coming back.

Not official yet, but a reliable poster on the ND board who was at the banquet said it was announced there. Technically, the university still has to accept her grad school app, which should be a formality.
