UConn+ made me pay $4.99 to watch UConn vs. Texas. Feels illegal… and then I see that someone is streaming it on YouTube now. They’ll be hearing from my lawyers, I need my $4.99 back.
Based on what we saw from Jovana Popovic in UConn’s preseason game, I think we should expect to see her as one of the top freshmen in the country by the end of the season (much like we did with Blanca last season).
2️⃣6️⃣-2️⃣7️⃣ Preseason Impact Freshmen
Impact can be defined several ways. Some freshmen will have opportunities to contribute immediately because of roster needs, while others are more projectable & will need more time to carve out roles alongside established stars.

Takeaways from tonight’s game:
- We need Blanca back
- Popovic = Nika Muhl on steroids
- Bad shooting night for SS, but when she hits her shots everything else will fall into place
-I loved Vukosa, especially for it being her first game ever
- UConn is still good, don’t worry!!
Soooooo in other words, we *might* have them back before Christmas… you can’t trust Geno Auriemma when it comes to estimating injury return timelines😅
Gandy played a total of 2 minutes last season. They’re hyping her up like she’s going to have the biggest freshman to sophomore jump anyone in a UConn jersey has ever had. Either they’re gaslighting us, or we’re about to have a BIG secret weapon.
