It is interesting--and refreshing--that she played it low keyed.

We are really down to strong at this point huh? The 2 we have would be considered the centerpieces of practically the entire D1. We got 2 posts a year ago and 3 guards and a post this year. We got the best shooter in the 2024 class and the next John Havlichek. I'm not so sure about Strong. UConn's best players usually don't wait. Fudd's an exception. Wilson and Boston waited and UConn lost. UConn will survive without her if Vukosa signs. And then there's Malou-Mamel. |

Morgan's following the Aussie Lara Somfai 2025 Click on this and watch a lot of her moves: www.instagram.com/lara_somfai/Some say 6'3", some say 6'4". You say potato, I say....whatever her height, how many kids that size go behind-the-back? Extremely mobile, whatever her height. (You're allowed 4 steps Down Under, right?) |

I want this one also!! I want em all!! Sounds like she wants to blaze her own path. Maybe she doesn’t follow her sister to UCLA. We might have a chance with her.

The “Pundits” on TOB seem to think Sarah Strong will be at First Night. If she is, I thinks she’s ours, if not well….

I know, I read those with delight, but then one pundit opined the opposite. When will we know? This is tough one!

I don’t know. Are we recruiting her? I think it just turned into speculation because Morgan valley was following her.
Fan chatter has driven the Koval and Roberson rumors more than actual evidence.
I’m thinking it will be a two player class if we miss on strong.
First night could be interesting though. Ziebell attended last year.

I’m thinking it will be a two player class if we miss on strong. First night could be interesting though. Ziebell attended last year. When Morgan follows, it becomes a person of interest. What is the difference between Morgan following her and everything else short of a public, official campus visit (often not announced until they happen)? So, we can't know if we're recruiting unless/until she shows up at Storrs. We could say that photographic evidence of Geno watching a high school game is the "in between" but that hasn't always happened either with someone who ends up playing for UConn. |

Yes seriously. Following is just to monitor the players progress most of the time. Also to indirectly let them know someone is watching. Why do you think these players have this profiles? (Instagram). It’s not to show their friends at parties. |

(Instagram). It’s not to show their friends at parties. True. Sorry for the confusion. The "seriously" was not for the following but for the talent. 8th graders (look at Paige) are playing a very different level of ball than they did even 10 years ago. |

I just hope it is not LSU or South Carolina.
Edit: you know what… I don’t want it to be Notre dame either. Their recruiting has been excellent lately.

Everyone EXCEPT UConn :-) Top ranked player in 2025, but we don't need her, and she doesn't need us. It's not clear whether we were even interested. http://instagram.com/p/Cx4W2TnNT1s |

I am thinking Britt Prince to Indiana looks likely.

Even if we have no shot at the commitment. I do think guard probably isn’t our priority for this class. Theoretically, we would have Ines, KK, Shade, Fisher, Ziebell, and Cheli already when Chavez starts her college career. I think wings and bigs would be the likely priorities. |
