JR Payne is making moves for the Colorado Buffaloes women’s basketball team. After nearly making the NCAA Tournament in 2021, this team is returning a ton of talent and bringing in even more.
On Friday, two former Washington Huskies announced they would be transferring to CU, sophomore guard Tameiya Sadler and junior center Quay Miller. They were arguably the two best players on a Huskies squad that finished 11th in the conference, then knocked off the Buffs in the Pac-12 Tournament. The two women transferred after UW fired head coach Jody Wynn.
