Ines in the transfer portal

[SLY63]

Seems like a good move given our incoming recruits at guard. Happy for her.

 

[BballFan]

So sad for this but wishing her all the best

 

[cgshuskie]

Sorry to see her go! Boy, this is hard, but, in comes Allie and Morgan. It makes sense..... Good luck Ines

 

[Sifaka]

Boa sorte, rapariga.

 

[SLY63]

Will Geno pursue the grad xfer from Princeton?

 

[Drumguy]

Geez without any injuries we're already down to 13 players.

I would hope there are one or two more to be added via the portal! Maybe that Princeton point guard?

 

[JellyBean]

Dang! Like others have said, sad to see Ines go. Ines improved her game over the summer and put in the work in the weight room. Great body language on the court even when sitting on the bench. She always supported the team. I am wishing Ines all the best on her future plans.

 

[pbchi]

I was impressed when she played the game when there was literally no one left to play and hit the foul shots to win. She she be a real contributor somewhere.

 

[Fastbreak]

Not everyone is going to be Brianna Pulido. Good luck, Ines. Find your dreams.

Wasn't Brianna a walk on? I imagine that she never expected to get anything more than a few garbage minutes and have fun while enjoying the ride.

not for long I suspect..........

Only 1 available scholarship left.

 

[Fastbreak]

Only 1 available scholarship left.

I would think that there are 2 scholarship spots available.

 

[DEFCONN1]

Really sorry to see her go, a fan favorite. Hopefully she will go somewhere she can apply her skills learned at UConn and thrive. Good luck Ines. We will miss you.

 

[CL82]

I would think that there are 2 scholarship spots available.

I don't think so. Remember Sara Strong is taking up one of the available scholarships.

 

[Zarathustra]

Best Wishes to INES! I loved your spirit and your play! May you reach all
your dreams. I have saved the highlight of your play against Princeton and Maryland.
Well done!! Sincerely, Zarathustra

I’m counting on the refresh button to change that

Two now available. Sarah was 15, now down two from Saturday. I’d love to be a fly on Geno’s wall right about now.

Considering Ayanna and Ice as redshirt sophomores, our junior class for 2024-2025 has officially left the building.

Best wishes Ines. This season undoubtedly caused you great frustration and anxiety, but all we saw from you was encouragement and positivity. That took great character. I hope you find a program where the players on the bench are cheering as hard for you as you did. There are such programs out there for you, I am sure.

 

[Cheddie]

ohhh the realities of big time college sports...........another great teammate who will have a chance to catch on with a program where she can show her stuff........I'm sure Geno will put in the good word for Ines and Amari as they seek better opportunities......

100% agree. Ms. Bettencourt had two years to learn the game from a Hall of Fame coach, and play against Paige and other top flight performers in practice. That will serve her well wherever she goes. I would suspect both are leaving on good terms, and Geno has already given them advice on their futures.

 

[DEFCONN1]

With Ines the port, who I will miss, things might just get interesting. Mmmmm

 

[Heytherego]

I don't think so. Remember Sara Strong is taking up one of the available scholarships.

There’s 2 available with the two transfer departures

 

[CTBballfan243]

Congrats and best wishes to Ines. I think taking a step down in competition level will allow her the opportunity to compete for some playing time. It will nice to see her have some fun playing hoops again.

 

[UConnCat]

Good for all concerned.

 

[Drumguy]

I don't think so. Remember Sara Strong is taking up one of the available scholarships.

Iirc, Sarah is taking AE's spot on the roster since she could have stayed another year. I could be wrong, need to see the Schollie chart!

 

[CL82]

There’s 2 available with the two transfer departures

You are correct. For some reason I was thinking there were only 14 scholarships allowed.

 

[Veteran]

Wasn't Brianna a walk on? I imagine that she never expected to get anything more than a few garbage minutes and have fun while enjoying the ride.

Yeah, she was. But she stayed despite knowing she would get few minutes. Each has to make their own decisions. Ines will land somewhere good for her after 2 years learning in the UConn system.

 

[Geesworld]

This young lady is going to help somebody's program. Glad she is transferring while she has multiple years left.
