    Coach may never admit it but behind that frozen expression....backflips & somersaults were being executed inside!!!
    One of many favorite Geno quotes...
    "Paige is an extraordinarily gifted basketball player but she's an even better human being."

    If our outside shooting returns to form and we play together to fullest extent of our abilities, we will be a very, very difficult team to overcome & no doubt inflict some serious damage in pursuit of Natty.
    2024-25
    Paige & Aubrey returning.
    -Adding Cheli & Ziebell (& Strong?).
    -Incorporating 5 (good to excellent) players back from injury plague.
    -Returning our terrific freshman (K.K., Ash, Ice, Q) as sophmores with tons of game seasoning!!
    -So much talent at Geno's disposal.
    -Key? 3 year injury curse *must* lift.

    Smart move. Clarke has a lock on the #1 pick this year. And... will set a new normal for an WNBA salary . Next year Paige has a shot at #1 pick plus Clarke has set the new contract standard. It's a win-win plus we get to enjoy her talents for 25-30 games while in college.

    I'm a lifelong Iowa fan, but as a supporter of women's hoops, also a huge fan of Paige. I've been following her since her Hopkins days. I can see where Caitlin, for example, should be ready to move on to the W. Nothing really left to accomplish. But Paige has been denied much of her college career by injury, as has her team. So even though I think she'd still be a high draft pick, and a success in the W, it does make sense to me that she wants to stay to see her college dreams come to fruition, playing with a healthy Azzi and the rest of the team. She'll have a legit chance to wear the Ring. I'm sure she doesn't need the W $$. But I live in the CA Bay Area, so I'd love to see her come next year to the new Golden St franchise, so I could drive down from Sonoma Co to watch her play, esp when the Fever (w/CC) come to town. C'mon Paige!!

    • @MelvinLew

      The W needs Paige and Caitlin more than they need the W. The WNBA would not embrace 2 white, straight potential superstars into their angry black lesbian club. Even women, feminists and the LBGTQ doesn't support the money losing WNBA by attending the games or buying merchandise. It took being arrested and jailed in Russia, for breaking the law, for Britney Griner to become "famous".

    Great decision, Paige!!! You’re only a kid once!!! I’m glad you get to enjoy the experience on college life and b-ball for one more year!!! You will get as much as you give to your fans!!!! You will NEVER regret this decision!!!

    I predict if the Huskies don't win the NCAA Championship in 2025, Paige Bueckers will return again for another year. IMO, it's time for her to move on from college but then again, if she can make more $$$ under a NIL agreement than in the WNBA, I don’t blame her for staying. I hope she’s choosing to stay partly to advance her academics and not solely to play another year of basketball for another NCAA tournament title shot. No matter how hard we would like to delay things, father-time waits for no one.

      "Shove her sexuality in your face"? In other words, if she weren't straight, she should hide it? So that your fragile
      little ego doesn't have to deal with reality? I mean, I have no idea what her romantic/sexual proclivities may be, but I do know that I don't care. And if she decided to publicly declare her love for another woman, I'd be very happy that she found happiness. So should you.
