Message: [QUOTE="Carnac, post: 2416855, member: 5798"] Excellent article. Every once in a while, you come across an athlete that stands out from most of the others, and you are so impressed, you want them to join YOUR family. I must admit, it's hard to read articles like this about an athlete that is driven to be the best she can be, and appears to be a "perfect fit" for your program. Now that I've been introduced to Laeticia Amihere, I won't forget her. It's a name I'll remember. I'll keep track of her until she commits somewhere (hopefully UConn). I'll admit right here and now to being selfish, I want Amihere to be a Husky (if the staff wants her too). I know UConn can't recruit everyone, and that UConn is not for everyone. She's smart, intelligent, skilled, TALL, has a great work ethic, and wants to be great, what's not to like? With her work ethic and determination, you can tell she's going to be highly successful no matter where she goes. I believe that all of the things she'll be looking for in a college/university in general, and a women's basketball program specifically, can be found in Storrs. If you want to be great, and follow in the footsteps of those greats that have preceded you, back track and find out where most of them went to college. UConn has launched their fair share of high school grads into the upper echelon of college and professional basketball, and prepared them for life afterwards. If you strive to be the best, then should you go to the best coach(s)/teacher(s) available for that next level of training and counsel. Just a little research in this area should lead her directly to Storrs after her HS graduation. [/QUOTE]
