If I remember correctly the sun does shine in April in Storrs! All are in agreement that we could do with a big to replace Edwards-- for a year or two. I bet the coaches have tried (and probably are still at it). The immediate ones have endless options, and for a host of reasons decided against(?) UCONN. None of the names populating these threads appear to be clueless, so I must respect their decisions. Now. we lost our PG-- and. let me strike right away: PB will play where ever she is needed; but, we do not have another PG who is qualified to run the show. Arnold was not the PG-- she had different tasks w/ PG-helping roles. I'm in shock at how fast and thorough the various schools have changed since March Madness. The addition of Chen is not (just) for insurance purposes, it is needed energy. I am optimistic about the coming health of the infirms, but I have questions. (Questions about a few key players and what they absolutely must improve upon this summer.)
So, there are three plusses for me. First, Uconn might help Chen to a draft status in a year; Second, she will provide the maturity and points needed for this team to compete; Lastly, I think if Chen does well it will shine on her coach at Princeton -- who I hope the Program will seriously consider when the time for a change comes about. Just saying.
