Remember the great news about Azura Stevens transferring from Duke to UConn? She will sit out the 2016-17 season per the transfer rule and be available the following season.
Well, there is word from several sources that Batouly Carmana, a 6'2" power forward, who announced her intention to transfer from Kentucky after her freshman season, is a real strong possibility for having UConn as her destination. She would have three years left after sitting out as Stevens is doing. I have the links in the UConn section.
Here is what I know.
I know that she was down to UConn and Kentucky before committing to the Wildcats and playing her freshman year in Lexington.
I know that she was a teammate of 2017 UConn verbal Andra Espinoza-Hunter at Blair Academy.
I know that she had a terrific game against South Carolina, with 14 points and 9 rebounds.
I know that UConn heavily recruited her and certainly had her fully vetted.
I know that former UConn forward Tamika Williams was one of her coaches at Kentucky last season and could give Geno a solid analysis on how she played and if she would fit in at UConn.
I know that soon after Camara announced she was leaving Kentucky, Chris Daily immediately followed her on twitter.
The tea leaves are strong for this to happen. This would be three transfers in recent history for Geno and UConn, quite the departure from years past. Similarly to Geno starting his recruiting efforts earlier in HS player careers to keep up with the latest trend, Geno is now delving into the transfer market as some really good players are making themselves available.
Stay tuned. For fun, here are a couple of videos. The first one is from a Kentucky practice. The second is from HS.
