Aaliyah Edwards, Paige Bueckers, Nika Mühl, Aubrey Griffin: UConn WBB postgame (Georgetown) - 2/16

UConn's Aaliyah Edwards, Paige Bueckers, Nika Mühl and Aubrey Griffin talk to the media after the win over Georgetown.

Aubrey coming back too is huge!

[@reneemcdonald6232]

It’s going to be so Awesome having both Paige & Aubrey back for another season! Go Huskies!!!💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙

[@relybsr]

Who was watching Paige Bueckers seven years ago, as a Sophomore in high school? She showed up on my KZbin feed and I've been watching ever since. Possibly, my favorite basketball player on the court.

[@carolynbarr770]

More PB,,,more Aubrey,,,, thanks for your sacrifice!! UCONN Nation is ecstatic!! 🏀🏀

[@914Rocky]

No sacrifice at all. Huge NIL money and a way better atmosphere than any WNBA team. If Clark leaves for the W, Paige could end up on the same team in a year.

[@reneelewis4616]

How memorable is this. My grandmother's bday is February 17 1917 and her great granddaughter Aubrey Griffin is doing a media post game shoot. RIP her granddad, my uncle Roney Eford Sr.

Love the shades!! And great game seniors!! 🏀🏀

[@kennethrobinson6738]

First off, CD must be getting soft as the years go by. Sunglasses and gum for a presser? 😂 Secondly, proud of these seniors and the whole squad. They have been on a massive roller coaster of events. Covid and injuries. Players leaving. Coaches leaving. Through it all, they have created a strong bond. Proud of these young women/ladies. Third thing. What does this say about Coach and what he, CD, and the coaching staff have built at UConn? Two of the four are coming back. Aaliyah and Nika will decide later, which is their right, and I respect that. They have to do what is best for them. But for players that could leave but want to stay, that speaks volumes about Coach and CD and what they have built at UConn. It also speaks volumes about these young ladies and their character. Well done ladies. Great game. Great presser. Great ceremony.

[@silkysenor]

Is it true that the foreign players can’t have NIL deals? I think that if that’s true then it might be smart for their careers that they cash in on their talent and leave.

[@clairesager3519]

i believe it depends on the type of visa you have and what state you play in, but generally this is true

[@914Rocky]

Long live NIL. Makes the decision so much easier. She’ll definitely make more $$ staying another year in Storrs. Plus this team has been so snake bitten with injuries, she’s do for a real title shot run. Not sure who is going to be able to step up at the low post though. Really wish Edwards had one more year.

[@thomas-gw3xf]

the 2 player team can not beat good teams using all 5 -------------- Ash ISN'T accepted as team member - probably 1 of best defensive players on minute to minute basis and with confidence boost from team could blow lights out with scoring ---- most of her baskets do not come from passes but from scrambling and rebounds ------------ been watchn team 30 some years and another "well next year" has flew by again -------------- so will not say it out loud or to myself again !!! like to see Chris take over and Geno go retire to pasta palace venue !!

[@thomas-gw3xf]

would love to see Iowa play U Conn in 1st round -------------- would bet big on Iowa --------- been forever since U Conn lost in 1st round !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@914Rocky]

@@thomas-gw3xf Won’t happen. UConn’s seed would be too high. That would be a good match up for UConn. Iowa has no bigs to worry about. And Nika Muhl would hold Clark under 40.

[@914Rocky]

@@thomas-gw3xf Geno does seem to be well past his prime. He was never a particularly great in game coach and he’s being a bit exposed without having a huge talent advantage. That said, the team has been crushed by injuries for three straight years. This team was loaded before the injuries. Who’s going to be dominant in the low post next year? Ice hasn’t looked very good most of the season. That said, Aaliyah struggled a lot the first two years. I really wanted UConn to take a run at that big from DePaul who transferred.

[@kaptainh5538]

Great News

[@ms-5920]

I think Patterson, bettencourt, or Deberry may transfer

[@sabbb2342]

2/3 correct 😂

[@garyroundtree3293]

Iam being real ok . They better get the number 1 player in the country yes i said it sarah strong from NC because Joyce Edwards from south Carolina is trying to get her to come to South Carolina very bad. Strong will help uconn greatly a strong forward at that and uconn needs to go all out getting her to make up her mind to come to uconn.??

[@annad3109]

the way you manifested this

[@garyroundtree3293]

They already have the number 1 player Sarah strong she be at the forward position look out big East,

nika is sooo cooll

[@jimhicks584]

Are they going to break into doo-wop with those shades?❤

[@garyroundtree3293]

I happy for Aubrey coming back yes. I am still waiting to see new recruiters as strong from NC who she is going to pick.

Shades…ok then…

[@viking_fisherman]

Coooooooooollll, shades, ladies!!!! I hope Aaliya and Nika decide to return as well. Aaliya has grown so much year after year… I really want to see what she can become with one more year under her belt!!! And Nika is a unicorn, a defensive bast and an assist queen!!! 2024-25, with the blessing g of a fully healthy team( could be absolutely epic, something no player would want to miss out on!!!!!

Yeah...because there's nothing more exciting than seeing a 25 year old playing against 18 year old kids.

[@matthewreese3907]

Unfortunately, unless someone else transfers, there is no more room for both of them. UConn only has one more roster spot for next year left. It will either go to a recruit or Aaliyah or Nika. We will see.
