He doesn't like it....hope it does not happen. The emergence of NIL money might help keep 'one and done' out....according to Geno.
I thought she might go to Iowa State...she does move the Iowa needle up a bit...my guess is that she would
have moved the ISU needle up to better their chances of a final four....with the talented group of frosh the
Cyclones have....notably Crooks. Olsen is legit.
Great to see Lara visiting UConn. She is on the same team as our 2025 verbal Kelis Fisher down
in Florida...my impression is that it is a prep school with serious basketball intentions.
A double-dip of Kelis and Lara might be really nice.
BTW: Recently I think I saw that 2025 verbal Gandy...
Getting that invitation is VERY encouraging concerning her draft status. Don't think
they give these things out like candy....wouldn't mind seeing her parents there plus
Geno/CD etc.
"Hurley won't let him come back..."
So...if DC makes the decision to stay in college....for whatever reasons that make sense for him...
Hurley won't offer him a scholarship for next year? Really? So...DC then has to transfer to another college?
Might get a couple of hundred offers. That...
Whoever is pushing him this way or that... family/coach/friends etc I hope we/they agree that it is HIS life and his decision...he may have factors personally that will determine what he does.
Whatever he decides wish him well.
Paige would probably be gone in Olsen's second year. Then again as of now
Paige has 2 years of athletic eligibility left. COVID year....frosh year...does not count...medical
redshirt with injury last season. Would she have to get a special OK from the NCAA for that injury
season...does the...
LwrcasefaN: I thought it was clear that going to ISU would mean that team [with Olsen] would have a decent shot at the
final 4 due in part to the frosh who were very good this year...Crooks the best of them.
Did not know Olsen has 2 more years of eligibility...makes her more appealing than...
I do find Iowa interesting...except that there will be tons of inevitable comparisons with Clark.
Iowa State is more probable...they have several very talented frosh...including Crooks.
Final four with Olsen? Very good chance...imo.
Best of luck to Amari...hope she has lots of offers to choose from...sure seems like an absolutely
wonderful person.
Does this not leave Geno with a schollie to offer....even after the Sarah Strong
addition?
A portal pick-up? An international player? No move at all?
Is there a video link to Sarah's announcement? If so....could someone repeat it...or tell me its
location. Thank YOU!
"tis a wonderful Saturday...be sure to root on the Husky men tonight....on 3 channels...TBS/TNT/TrueTV.

AP Coach of the Year...Dawn Staley
Quite a few deserving coaches....including our own. Losing all 5 starters from last year and going undefeated [So Far!]
is worthy of that honor.
Possibility? Clara Strack...this season at Virginia Tech...just a frosh...entering portal...3 years of eligibility left.
6'5"...I hear good things....as in 'starter from day one'. From New York State...hope we show
appropriate interest.
'Together' in the sense that those three schools are the only ones left with both men and women still alive.
Of course....'Guess Who' is UConn.
Will any of those 3 still have both teams standing after Monday?
OSU was simply dreadful handling the ball...guards and bigs....but when they got a shot they shot well.
Hidalgo missed about 4 minutes with the nose ring...maybe a couple more during the game. Had an overall
poor game.
Great TV viewing come Saturday evening!
Men's final 8 game against Illinois starts at 6:10...on both TrueTV and TBS.
Women's sweet 16 game against Duke starts at 8:00...on ESPN.
Cheer early/then cheer late....and then have a sweet sleep...hopefully.
Gandy seems to have benefited from her first year in the USA.
She is a 2025 student so my bet is she will keep developing her game next year and have a realistic chance to be in the regular
rotation come November 2025 here at UConn. Hope we get some Horde members and/or Boneyarders to watch her...
So we have an opening for an OOC game...how about the start of home/home with Iowa State...they are very
very young with an interesting frosh center...Crooks. Think they have a 7 seed this year...might be trouble for opponents
the first weekend. Believe Crooks was Big 12 FOY...a difficult...
