So is Camilla Cardosa now a "no chance"?
So is Camilla Cardosa now a "no chance"?
For UConn I believe the answer is “Yes.” For a number of other programs that appear to be willing to wait and see if Cardoso can secure a high enough SAT/ACT test score to qualify for an NCAA scholarship, the answer is “Maybe.”So is Camilla Cardosa now a "no chance"?
I think a person's perspective on "being 70" when you're younger changes over time. When I was younger, I thought that being 60 WAS OLD and 70 WAS ANCIENT but now that I've arrived, I feel nothing like I thought I would WAY BACK THEN. There are people in their seventies and beyond that still have energy and drive and enthusiasm and ambition while many people appreciably younger, act is if they're prepared for life in an assisted living facility. People and their wants and needs vary so very much. Geno looks as if he's still got that fire in his belly and hopefully won't be going anywhere for a very, very long time.Belichick said the same thing. It's how you feel when you are younger. But then you get to 70 and realize....this is what I like to do.
I read a quote from Mick Jagger saying he couldn't imagine singing Jumpin' Jack Flash when he was 50. He's 76 and touring right now.

I would say yes. I think that message came with the Piath selection. It appears there are academic challenges there and through the years Geno has shown little patience for that.So is Camilla Cardosa now a "no chance"?
The Who pulled "My Generation" from their rotation for a while for the same reason.I read a quote from Mick Jagger saying he couldn't imagine singing Jumpin' Jack Flash when he was 50. He's 76 and touring right now.

Well it looks like he's definitely got something in that belly.I think a person's perspective on "being 70" when you're younger changes over time.

Then why bring her into this (swerved) thread?
When I was 30 I figured that by 70 I'd be feeble, sitting in a chair somewhere. I'm turning 70 in the spring and except for my knees I feel the same physically and mentally as I did at 30. (I was a little off even then)

That's pretty much assured.
Hopefully UCONN is in better shape with Kamilla Cardoso then.I would say yes. I think that message came with the Piath selection. It appears there are academic challenges there and through the years Geno has shown little patience for that.
In the area of Academics holding up a player--Geno was burned once. I'm pretty sure he is very very happy Edwards chose Uconn and allow the Brazilian Bombshell to explode elsewhere.For UConn I believe the answer is “Yes.” For a number of other programs that appear to be willing to wait and see if Cardoso can secure a high enough SAT/ACT test score to qualify for an NCAA scholarship, the answer is “Maybe.”
Plenty of Aaliyah Edwards in this compilation from the Border Wars Canadian game earlier this year. Aaliyah won MVP. She's #13 in red with the long, white leg guards.
You do realize that Aaliyah is from Kingston, Ontario, not Quebec?Bonjour Aaliyah,
Bienvenu dans votre nouvelle maison loin de chez vous!
Just having fun, from your announcement video it is obvious what values you were looking for in the next level of education and basketball. Obviously you and your family realize you are coming to a top notch school and coaching staff beyond compare.
Your mom expressed just how at home you felt at Crestwood. Wait till she gets a grip on the number of surrogate parents, grand parents, uncles and aunts you signed on for. It's a UConn WBB family thing.
WELCOME TO THE PACK !
Pas de merde?You do realize that Aaliyah is from Kingston, Ontario, not Quebec?
C’est vrai mon ami.Pas de merde?
Auriemma’s even better than we thought. According to the article he’s won 49 conference titles in 33 years. I doubt that record will ever be matched.Edwards visited the school in Storrs, Conn., last week. She said she had offers from more than 70 other NCAA university programs.
“Soaking up that atmosphere was just breathtaking and amazing,” she said.
Edwards also said she was impressed with UConn’s dedication to excellence.
...
She said her time with the national team has helped her mature and raised her basketball IQ while playing with teammates who have already been exposed to the NCAA level of play.
“My work ethic is already there, but when I get to where I am next year, (I’ll be) just making sure to carry on those habits that I’ve created in high school but also be open to making mistakes and learning from them because college basketball is a whole different ball game,” she said.
...
UConn is losing five seniors off its roster next year, but Edwards knows she has to earn her court time as a freshmen.
“My focus is to go down there and play to the best potential I can, and have the will to adjust and tweak any old bad habits that I need to get rid of,” she said.
