UConn Freshmen/Commits: C. Collier, Coombs, AEH, Gordon, Walker

[HGN]

Megan Walker made USA Today's midseason POY candidate list. Also making the list is Sam Brunelle. Of possible note, Brunelle was congratulated by Lexi Gordon's mom on Twitter. Sam thanked "Mrs. Gordon."

Midseason ALL-USA Girls Basketball Player of the Year candidates

Sluconn , do you think the ever-recruiting Gordon is already working on bringing Brunelle (by the congratulatory note from her Mom) to UConn? Along with a future NC ?

Wouldn't shock me. I thought it was odd that her mom would converse with Brunelle on social media despite no apparent links between Sam and Lexi (different states, AAU teams etc).

Today her mom re-tweeted that AAC video about playing for Geno. She sent it to all of next year's class including Lexi, to Charli Collier, and to-----Christyn Williams.

Mrs Gordon may have to register as an official UConn Husky Booster.

Megan Walker played tonight and scored 22 points in Monacan's win.

Monacan led by 28-4 after the first quarter. It sounds very much like a UConn game.

Like I said..........The ever-recruiting Lexi. If this is any indication , she is going to be a joy to have on the team as a player. And a joy to have as a Husky when new recruits are cycling thru during recruiting periods.

Keep up the good work Lexi.

GO HUSKIES !!

Megan Walker reminds me of a slightly larger version of Maya Moore: they move alike, they both have the pull up jump shot and play defense like they mean it. What could possibly go wrong?

 

[Sluconn Husky]

Lexi Gordon scored 23 points Friday (2/3) in what I believe was LD Bell's last regular season game.

Andra Espinoza-Hunter had to be carried off the court today after injuring her ankle. No word yet on the extent of it. She had 21 points in the 3rd before leaving.

Geno would be pissed, because she missed the shot.

There has been a lot of discussion about how good Meg is and whom she resembles. She is very, very good. As the #1 recruit, she is roughly as talented and effective as players like Maya, Kaleena, and Lou. I think she resembles Maya in some ways, though not others. Meg has a very good handle, and her midrange jumper when dribbling LEFT is money. Maya is arguably the best player in the world. In 6-8 years, Meg could be a top-5 player. She should be one of the best in college during her time in Storrs.

She is going to have to start playing better than that. Thirty one Points? Ten rebounds? That just won't cut it.

Monacan beat Hugenot tonight. When they played 3 weeks ago, Monacan won by 60. My guess is that Meg played only 20 minutes tonight.

She's leading her region in rebounding and steals, is second in scoring, and is third in blocks. She's shooting 43% from the floor, 32% from the arc, and 83% from the line.
