“I first took an unofficial visit and it was all basketball talk,” Karaban said. “Coach Hurley calls me after my visit and goes, ‘Any questions you have?’ I was like, ‘My mom needs to know about the academics.’”

“They sent me a van that next week and I spent the entire day in every academic building,” Karaban said. “They sent a car to pick me up for an official visit. It was called the Mrs. Karaban visit.”

“We went to the engineering building, the business school,” Karaban said. “I met with [Maric], met with donors, met with everyone. That was [I]the worst[/I] visit I ever had in my life, but the most important, by far. I loved UConn, especially being local. Once they proved that, academically, it was good enough for my mom, I called Coach Hurley in the next couple of days and said, 'I'm coming to UConn.'”
