Any top talent leaning towards the Huskies ??

Here's a list of players UCONN is looking at/or has looked at/or has at some time been connected to that are still uncommitted (last I checked).

Lauren Cox 6-4 (1) F/C
Joyner Holmes 6-3 (2) F
Sabrina Ionescu 5-10 (4) G
Tori McCoy 6-4 (7) C/F
Amber Ramirez 5-8 (11) PG
Natalie Chou 6-1 (13) G
Jaelyn Brown 6-1 (18) W
Felicia Ayieotan 6-9 (23) C
Jocelyn Willougby 6-0 (29) W/G

Don't know how many of the above are still on UCONN's radar (either way). The only things I've read lately has been about Cox and McCoy.

Meyers , that is the list as I know it to be as well...........I don't think Geno has offered anyone on the list so far. Probably waiting to see if they make an Official visit to campus before offering.

What's happened to Zandalasini? Is she staying in Europe? I never heard her mentioned relative to UCONN yet she's Hoopgurlz 4th ranked 2015 and she's uncommitted.

I know the standing joke is that Geno can't go through another transition like the one he had with Svetlana but this girl is Italian. Surely she and the head coach could find something to talk about.

Is it just that she's a wing and we are currently set there? Don't see how that would keep Geno from finding a way to use her if she's as good as reported.

Haven't heard anything with UCONN and Zandalasini. Seems kinda late for her to be coming in anywhere now. Most "rising" Freshmen are already enrolled in summer classes.

There's word from a coach at the Rhode Island Breakers AAU program of a 2016 UConn commit: Molly Bent, 5-8 guard, Tabor Academy, Marion, Massachusetts. This article from last fall said that she had 12 D-I offers, including Fordham, UMass, URI, Maine, Delaware, and Davidson, plus a ton of interest from Ivy League schools. UConn coaches had watched the Breakers team at the Deep South Classic.

Tweet this afternoon from @starsbbpride: "Congrats to 2016 Breaker Molly Bent on her verbal commitment to play at UConn"

Good point.

The question now arises, if you have matriculated to summer school, are you any longer rising?

It now reads "Boston University."

I don't see that, but he deleted the tweet I was referencing. @BreakerGirlsBB still has a tweet up saying she committed to UConn.

EDIT: I checked again, and that tweet is back up, so I'm not sure what the deal is with this.

Never mind what I posted above. The original tweet was never deleted; it's still there, as is the one from @BreakerGirlsBB. I don't see anything about Boston University.

Confirmed: Molly Bent (Barnstable/Tabor) will commit to UConn. She plays for RI Breakers - Edgehill.

 

[RockyMTblue2]

Molly Bent. If true, this one comes out of nowhere!

 

[RockyMTblue2]

A YouTube highlights video on her soph. year.




4 more up there too.

Molly Bent (5-9 PG/2 Centerville, MA/Tabor Academy 2016) verbals to powerhouse Connecticut! @CGBR27 @espnW

 

[RockyMTblue2]

I can see Geno reckoning the with Crystal on board he better not gun for the #2 guard in the class. Hit 1000 points by end of soph. year, very smart, off to elite prep school now. Got the Sue Bird pony tail down. Wonder if she has any more growth in her?

[RockyMTblue2]

While still wearing the Barnstable jersey she had a time when she wore one big old ugly knee brace. Pix won't load for me. See it at: http://massprepstars.com/spotlight/players/molly-bent-15

 

[Fightin Choke]

Molly Bent pretty much makes Kyla Irwin seem like a household name. Obviously, Geno saw something he liked before any of the services took note of her. Hoopgurlz has her at 3 stars, the 16th ranked SG, although it seems like she's a PG on her HS team. Of course with Crystal in the same class at UConn, Molly will probably play SG. She is not even listed as a recruit from Massachusetts by Prospect's Nation, and she is unranked by Blue Star (and they go 177 deep in the class of 2016). I don't know what ASGR thinks because Bret McCormick hasn't tweeted her commitment yet.

Raoul,
My apologies. I Googled @starsbbpride and got the wrong girl. I'm bent on being more careful next time.

 

[Sluconn Husky]

Bent used to dream of playing at national powers UConn or Notre Dame, but reality has clouded that a bit."I would never be able to go there," she said. "But I'd like to go Division I. You never know."
