If UConn signs Azzi Fudd, they'll finally have a potentially great shooting class in 2021-22 with her, Saylor Poffenberger and Caroline Ducharme. Makurat will be a junior and Bueckers a soph.

Watching the video I got the impression that it was herself, not Conlon that Taurasi was asking about when she said 3 titles.

Have no use for Twitter, but there are some news articles and blogs about Jasmine Lister's resignation, e.g.:
https://www.theuconnblog.com/2020/5/5/21248149/jasmine-lister-resigns-from-uconn-womens-basketball
This has been a very odd series of events. First, UConn wrote their job description a few years ago specifically to apply only to Lister, presumably because Geno wanted her. Then she suddenly disappears after a game. Then it's about an illness. Then it's personal reasons. Then it's no reason at all. Now a resignation with no follow-on coaching job reported.
Who has juicy rumors about what really happened? |

UConn women vs. Louisville on Dec. 4 highlights upcoming schedule
Quote: |
UConn announced that it will play six nonconference games, with four games in the state of Connecticut as well as road games at Baylor and Tennessee. In addition to the game against Louisville, UConn will play Quinnipiac on Nov. 28 and either Mississippi State or Maine on Nov. 29 in the Basketball Hall of Fame Women's Challenge. That event also will take place at Mohegan Sun Arena in Uncasville, Connecticut. |
But it's a little confusing. They appeared to have potentially "over-scheduled" for this upcoming season?
Quote: |
While the Big East has yet to release an official conference schedule, UConn also announced that it will play 20 Big East games. As it stands, that leaves the Huskies with 26 scheduled games.
The NCAA Division I Council announced last month that women's teams can schedule a maximum of 25 games if they do not participate in a multiple-team event or 23 games if they do participate in a multiteam event, such as the Hall of Fame Women's Challenge, that includes up to four additional games. An NCAA spokesperson confirmed Friday that those rules remain in place. |
The article seems to explain the scheduling snafu away, but I at least still don't really follow.

I have no explanation for the rationale but here it is:
The NCAA Division I Council announced last month that women's teams can schedule a maximum of 25 games if they do not participate in a multiple-team event or 23 games if they do participate in a multiteam event, such as the Hall of Fame Women's Challenge, that includes up to four additional games. An NCAA spokesperson confirmed Friday that those rules remain in place.
A UConn spokesperson said that because the program had been approved to schedule 29 games and a two-game multiteam event before the new COVID-related reductions, it was told that it needed to reduce its original schedule by four games, also per the Division I Council ruling and superseding the 23/25 maximums. That means UConn could, in theory, still schedule an additional nonconference game that would push its schedule to 27 games.
