Thought she have made a bigger impact last. Especially with all the injuries. With Henshaw, the emergence of Leverett, and hopefully a healthy Jordao we still have some good bigs but this hurts the depth a little. So Laska and Ferreira graduate, Radar leaves school early, and Makaela Kestner and Janeta Rozentale both transfer. With what looks to be a team with a lot less depth next year we can't afford any injuries or we'll be in a similar or worse position as this year. Hadn't heard about Rader. Thought she was coming back. Kestner and Rozentale probably got the Jazz Bond talk about most likely not getting playing time. Neither will be missed although Rozentale was very athletic.

She was going to have surgery after the season on her knee. Was supposed to be simple but maybe something happened???? No idea. Her dad had said she was coming back at the end of the season so wasn't even thinking about her. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He impressed me. I have been somewhat frustrated with his inability to make some game plan adjustments and to alter his recruiting over the years, but I think this season was the springboard for him as a coach to get to the elite level. Watching UCONN closely over the last few seasons, the one constant that disrupts their play is physicality. In the past, we haven't been physical enough. While this year's UCONN squad was far from their best, they were still formidable. Despite being depleted, we played them about as well as could be expected in the regular season. By the AAC title game, we were completely gassed, so that type of performance was expected. Rosters turnover, that is the nature of college athletics, but the coaches need to be the stalwarts. If CJF can have a bounce-back season this upcoming season it will solidify him in my eyes as one of the best coaches in the women's game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Odd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Odd. Wow. That is disheartening. The narrative changes a bit now imo. That's at least four players transferring out and one maybe walking away altogether since right before the start of last season. Including one of the programs all time best. I'm not sure what all that does or doesn't mean but it's certainly worth noting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My daughter has met Kit numerous times and she has always been very gracious. This time was no exception. My daughter was bold and told her to get well soon and please come back for another year. Kit laughed, thanked her and said she was thinking about it. We will always be fans of Kit and USF WBB because of encounters like this one. Thanks Kit for some great memories. Go Bulls! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
