August recruiting thread

[HuskyNan]

I think Dee Alexander from Cincinnati has an offer. Class of 25

You’re correct

 

[Charliebball]

So, I started this spreadsheet tonight. It’s incomplete but I wanted to get input before spending a ton of time on this. I know there are names missing - help me out.

• I do see the typo on Gandy’s last name. I will fix with the next update.
• Also, I didn’t realize Morgan Cheli and McKenna Woliczko are high school teammates
• Need to add Justice Carlton. UConn is in her top 5

You may want to consider adding 2025 6'3" forward Brynn McGaughy who's ranked #15 by ESPN and has said that UConn is her "dream school"........... She has the kind of skill set and mentality that Geno looks for.....

Also, I posted this in the July recruiting thread:

In a story about her offer from Iowa, 2025 Brynn McGaughy mentions UConn:

Q: Have you been hearing from any other schools that have not yet offered you a scholarship? Any visits planned for the fall?

McGaughy: I’ve been hearing from UConn and South Carolina who have not yet offered me. I have a few visits on the calendar, but more to plan.


I'm guessing here but I wonder if Geno planned to watch her play in July at the Omaha event but her ankle injury prevented that from happening.

I think that's a probable scenario too. And now he has to wait until she's healthy, playing, and he can get an evaluation/contact period. IMO she'd be worth the wait.

Interesting. I believe the two have a friendship pre-dating Aaliyah’s recruitment

I’m thinking she’s Texas’s to lose

Now that Tonya has joined the UConn Staff, she's been given an update on which recruits UConn is actively recruiting or has identified as a player of interest. Here are Tonya's new IG follows:

Sarah Strong
Brynn McGaughy
Arianna Roberson 2024
Jordyn Palmer 2027
Lauren Hassell 2027
Ayla McDowell 2025
Chloe Johnson 2028
Addison Bjorn
Jenica Lewis
Ivana Wilson Manyacka 2027
Kaleena Smith
Aaliyah Chavez
Jacy Abii
Jerzy Robinson

No Silva from Portugal. Also, no Olivia Vukosa though that will change. Speaking of Olivia, she'll be playing for Croatia in the upcoming European U16 championship. The games will be played in Turkey and start in a few days I think.

A couple of additions to Morgan's follows:

Jayla Forbes 2027
Sydney "Bean" Douglas 2028 (already 6-5 and something else. Morgan had been following Sydney but recently followed Mom and Dad).

Sydney "Bean" Douglas - 2028 - 6'5

6'5" at that age with those skills?........ wow........as long as she retains much of her athleticism as she gets older, she is going to be quite a player.......

Jaloni, unfortunately, is no longer a Player of Interest. UConn wasn’t a finalist.

Sydney "Bean" Douglas - 2028 - 6'5

Thank you for the instagram link........ YIKES, such co-ordination ! any many of those
shots were " NOTHING BUT NET"! I suspect we shall hear more about the " BEAN".

 

[HuskyNan]

Arianna Roberson (2024) can dunk

 

[HuskyNan]

Jayla Forbes (2027) is 6-7 as an 8th grader. It appears the SEC teams are all over her and there’s a picture of her in blinged up Tennessee gear

 

[HuskyNan]

I have nothing to say about this except to say I’m happy I’ve never seen a UConn equivalent

Lauren Hassell does not have a UConn scholarship offer
