The perception is Uconn has all top recruits and that just isn't the case.

Uconn has signed 6 top 25 recruits the last four years. But only 4 have stayed(Lue #1, Crystal #3, Collier #6 and Gabby #16).

During the same period, the following schools have signed this number top 25 girls:

ND 9
Duke 9(we'll have Azura next year)
Baylor 6
UNC 6
UCLA 6
Maryland 5
FSU 5
Texas 5
Tenn 4
Stanford 4

*Kia Nurse was 33 in '14 and the Washington's Plum was 26 in '13, so this isn't an exact science. But Geno and staff coach more than the outsiders would believe.

Next year, Uconn will have the 4 mentioned above, plus incoming frosh Walker #1, Coombs #14 and Stephens #22 in '14. Good luck with that.

Khalid, I was just talking about top 25 girls. And the UK girl was #53, but I read she's physical down low. Maybe the men can borrow her? She'll have 3 to play 3.

Okay but even if not in the top 25 those two are high quality girls to go with the 3 top 25 girls you mentioned. The way to look at is 5 top 50 girls behind the Fab 4 we have coming back. All of the Fab 4 are All American players and honestly Katie Lou, Gabby and Napheesa all should be 1st team All Americans.
