 Posted: 02/13/06 2:16 pm ::: UConn's Nicole Wolff to Pass on Extra Year |

UConn junior guard Nicole Wolff is expected to participate in Feb. 25 Senior Night activities, and could announce as early as Tuesday that she will not return for a fifth season in 2006-07, sources indicated Monday.
It's too bad injuries sapped her confidence and turned her into a shell of what she was in High School and her first UConn games. She was a DNP-CD yesterday. It's the right decision in my opinion. Time to move on.

| She'll never live up to be the player she was in her first UConn game which is very sad. So much potential. I think it is time for her to move on, which must have been a very tough decision for her.

| Any bets on some WNBA team taking a third round flyer on her?

And since Phoenix has Aussie Penny Taylor, we cannot draft womens_hoops, as he would disrupt team chemistry.

He'd club Penny's baby seals 
As for Wolff, ahhh the joys of recruiting rankings. |

yes, but she really did look that good when she arrived. It was just that, between injuries that never really healed and the complete lack of playing time, it was like her talent just disappeared over time...

| She's a good defender but can't hit the broad side of the barn. Hey, Blaze took Rebecca Richmond and Tabitha Poole so there is always a chance just because she's from UConn...

She can sit on the bench and look pretty.
