Message: [QUOTE="oldude, post: 2797373, member: 7511"] The challenge in attempting to determine the facts here is that coaches are prohibited from discussing specific recruits, whether they’ve been offered a scholarship and so on, while recruits can comment to reporters or post on social media to their hearts content. Adamec could have received information from the coaching staff, which would be a violation of NCAA rules, but as a good reporter covering UConn WBB, why wouldn’t he just call SB or her family to confirm an offer. As for Anthony, someone wanted it known that SB was not offered. Who and why? If we assume that SB was originally offered a scholarship by UConn that was later rescinded, it’s not a pretty picture. While SB may not be the #1 player in her class, she is certainly talented enough to play at UConn, and she appears to be a nice young lady. We are then left with two possible scenarios. Either something happened that turned Geno off to SB or her family, or Geno decided he had better options, so he pulled the offer. Subsequently, a source associated with the program wanted it known that there was no offer. I don’t know about you guys, but I prefer the scenario that there was a misunderstanding, rather than Geno pulling the offer. Either way, we will never fully know the details. [/QUOTE]
