I can't wait to see NIKA again, this year is going to be a key moment in her career. She transmits to you that desire to compete, to fight and to win until the end!

[carol]

Azzi will be an All-American this year💯

[douglasmcsorley]

Just a bunch of unbelievably great athletes but same goes for their character!! Awesome young ladies. Kick butt!!

[edgarmartinez]

Go Huskies!!! We believe in y'all. I'm so excited to watch Ayanna and Lou Lopez play!! Nika looks READY. Paige & Ice will be back in no time. I love this team!

[blnix]

tough to watch knowing Brady is out... really need to look at their strength/conditioning

[philiphughes]

Praying everyone else stays healthy! Go Huskies!

[stanwebb]

Respective of the challenge that is in front of the team they are not done until the the clock stops!!!

[magnus]

You watch Nika will have a great year. So will Azi.

[charlestaylor]

Azzi fudd will have a great Season this year Go Huskies

[magnus]

That Patterson girl looks good. She may have a breakout year as well.

I hope one of the freshmen are bangers. That is what has been missing the past two seasons. The front line and ONO in particular were soft. If one or more of the freshmen can come in and make it difficult for the opposing team to score down low, they have a good chance to go deep in the NCAA tourney. And I definitely missed seeing Nika's intensity last year. Coach made room for Azzi by limiting Nika. I think that was a huge coaching error. Those two are my favorite players. But limiting Nika's fire and hustle for Azzi's shooting didn't make sense. Gotta find a way to maximize each without limiting the other. That all being said....Hey Coach!!! Bangers! We need Bangers!!!

why haven't we seen or heard from edwards yet??

[randyashley]

WE KEEP TAKING LOSS FRESHMAN ICE BRADY OUT FOR THE SEASON 😟😟

[captain]

UCONN WB team will have a very good season. However, with Paige being out I am wondering who will be the Azzi's sidekick that will come through during the clutch time. You need a minimum of two All Americans to reach the Final Four and win the Championship. It appears Geno is hoping that Lou's scoring will fill the void of Paige's scoring absence.

[GuliPerazzini]

Taurasi, Bird, moor, steward...
Paige, Nika, Eduardo team ... The best

[toddoaurello]

Will it be the “local” or “express” bus this year?? Only time will tell… let’s get it on!!

[TheDisruptiveOne]

I think Azzi has the talent to be an All-American, but does she have the personality? We will find out this season.

[jusbsmart]

Nikka, azzi, Edwards, Abri, Lopez i put my money on them. Nikka as the leader

[garymacmillan]

God I miss Ice and that kid known as Buckets.

They cant do a chin up without assistance when they showed the gym workout.
