Ashlynn Shade to UConn (merged thread)

[DefenseBB]

Welcome to HuskyNation Ashlynn and the Shade family! We are very excited to have you.

Now let’s make @Tonyc really happy and sign 6’3” Ciera Toomey for our front court needs!

 

[Luckystrike]

It was the Atmosphere in Gampel on Sunday that helped her decide . Great pick! Go Huskies!

 

[AmeriConn]

Now on to Toomey!

Why do we care what other boards, fans, or coaches think? We spend a lot of time here talking about people that we (supposedly) don’t care about.

Because way, way down in the cockles of our hearts, maybe even below the cockles, maybe the subcockles, we care. Oh we care.

I wander off for a mere or measely 20 hours in the middle of Ashlynn Shade triming her team list in what seems lke real time AND she just keeps going! I love it and its just the kind of pick me up that feels so right. I can see Caroline and Ashlynn being quite the pair.

 

[TeamFirst!]

I got up early this morning to check this. It's fantastic news! Congrats Ashlyn and family! So happy to have you join the team!

Now on to Toomey!

You can call her C, friends do.

I don't know much about recruiting (beyond what @Sluconn Husky tells me) but I find the joy exhibited by the Boneyard faithful contagious and am as happy for you dedicated Husky devotees as I am for the continued brilliance of the UConn women's basketball program. I can't see your smiles, but I can feel them.

Ok. So does this close the door for M. Williams? Assuming we get Toomey, as a class, are we complete?

 

[eebmg]

Good job Ayanna working on our recruiting. First assist.

Geno, speaking to the rest of the basketball world…

Hold up !!! You mean Geno can still recruit ??? But they said......Oh well all I can say is after Paige is gone Uconn is gonna be loaded with Azzi and CD for a year along with KK, Slade, Patterson and, Brady and if Geno keeps showing he can't recruit by landing Toomey the dynasty and hate will only grow.

You can call her C, friends do.

OK, C it is!

Not really. With 3 gone after this season and Juhasz after this or next that should leave room for at least 4 and maybe 1 more for a total of 5.

 

[Zarathustra]

Very NICE. Add one BIG in the class of 2023 and " how sweet it
is !" Thank You KK, Ashlynn, and the ' assist ' from
Ayanna!

Ashlynn must be very relieved to get the weight of that decision out of her way.
I'm happy for her and her family, and hope Geno can help to fulfill her WNBA dream, and maybe even win a NC along the way.

 

[Watchdog]

Welcome to Husky Nation Ashlynn.
Your first assist would be a nice one to C...............

 

[Veteran]

But Ashlyn, don't you understand that UConn is bad for women's college basketball?

I got up early this morning to check this. It's fantastic news! Congrats Ashlyn and family! So happy to have you join the team!

I came to the BY this morning looking to see if tonight's game is still on. So, I got two pieces of good news. The game is still on, and UConn got a commitment from Shade.

Do we have any recent tape of Ashlynn?

Do we have any recent tape of Ashlynn?

In the Jan. recruiting thread, there's a post #213 with her game from 1/11 with Geno in attendence.
There's not very much highlight video of her on youtube.
I found the game to be worth watching, most all of her skills were on display.

January Recruiting Thread

Yes maybe right now. I think Kitts is going to be a pure wing and very similar to Olson in ‘24. Either one takes care of the 3 spot for 3-4 years. I would think they won’t get both. Just doing a little projection, I think Toomey is going to fill out and get stronger in the upper body over the...
