Another big front line with much better guards and depth than Oregon......

For a preview of Uconn's first opponent, they are playing @ 9:30 tonight vs. #3 Houston on ESPN.

The line is UConn -32. As was mentioned elsewhere, this team lost by 10 at Villanova. However they also lost by 38 at Virginia Tech and by 5 at Columbia. Their only win is over Immaculata so no D-1 wins so far. I would like to see AJ get more minutes today after his brief but very eventful minutes Friday night. I am also hoping Donovan can show a little better security with the ball and keep it high.

Could not find a line on this game but suffice it to say it's a losable game especially with Dorka out. NC State got 3 McDonalds All Americans via the transfer portal and have started the season very impressively and are 4-0. While they haven't played anyone real good, they have beaten solid mid majors by an average of around 40 ppg.

My guess is Aubrey takes the starting spot opened by Dorka's injury and Aaliyah will play Center and Aubrey PF with the same starting guards of Muhl, Fudd and Senechal. This will make the team a little smaller and quicker but I would think rebounding shouldn't suffer too much because Aubrey is a terror on the boards so long as she stays inside and doesn't drift out to shoot 3s. Amari and Ayanna are the backups now at the 5 and 4, so if there is any foul trouble UConn would be in trouble. They basically have 4 post players who are healthy.

Comes from a good coaching family and did good things at UCLA. His father was a legendary NFL coach who uttered one of the most famous lines ever heard in a post game presser:
