Caroline is very close to SaylorI think this is a great move not just in a basketball sense but in getting Paige and Saylor together so they can get to know each other on a personal level better. I was a little concerned that Paige, Azzi, Caroline and DeBerry were already very close and Saylor seemed to be on the outside which might lead to some issues so imho, this is just perfect.
Caroline is very close to Saylor
If Saylor has Paige's cool demenor in games and not the usual deer in the headlights freshman look, then all is good! It would appear she has the intellect the grasp UCONN's system at least as well as KLS did as a freshman ... now where is the three point line, set hands for quick smooth release and swish!Awesome! From what I’ve read, Saylor appears to be a player with Paige’s mentality and work ethic. Not to mention her 3 point shooting!
Things just got very interesting for Anna and Squeeks... Let the diamonds come forth...
well, 12 credits is the minimum you must take a semester to be eligible. Plus add in 6 credits over the summer that many of the players take so she will have 18 credits under her belt before next fall...Plus, let's not overlook that getting a 12 credit head start will take a lot of pressure off of her.
Her "normal four years" will probably be graduates in 3 years of eligibility. Then finishes her final two years of eligibility with a graduate degree. In addition to a high basketball IQ she apparently has a high IQ as in Stanford–Binet.Sounds great. With the extra year of eligibility she will sustain her normal four years, she gets a head start on learning ...
Any normal season I would totally agree with you, but the way things have been going, she may have plenty of time to catch up with the other players on learning the schemes... and it doesn't hurt that she's 6'2, in shape, and has shooting range even deeper than Dangerfield.I would be very surprised if Saylor can get significant minutes this year since she is way behind in practice and learning the schemes etc.
