While we all hope to see Azzi in a UConn uniform some day, if I was advising her right now, I would suggest she take her time before committing. While many HS recruits just want to get the process over, with all the uncertainty right now, waiting to make a final decision has a lot of merit. Consider the following:Gotta wonder who isnt recruiting Fudd. It was thought she was all UConn, now with the delay in committing some fans are thinking she is considering other schools, she may be considering other schools. IMO it will come down to can I win at another school. She can win at UConn and she has Paige her close friend already there. Committing to another school means in many cases not winning anything. UConn has too much to offer and if a great player goes elsewhere fine, there is nothing we can do about it. Geno will continue to get top players and not all of them but enough top players to contend for a NC every year and he is the only coach that can say that. So stop worrying about top recruits going elsewhere. It takes more then one top recruit to get to the FF. It takes IMO a minimum of 4-5 with a couple of good players off the bench.
]There were 3 HC changes at major D1 programs since the end of last season: ND, TX & Duke. Will there be more to come if there is no basketball season in 20-21?
[*]If there is no basketball in 20-21, that will create a logjam between the HS classes of 2020 & 2021
[*]While there may be a logjam for recent recruiting classes, undoubtedly many eligible seniors as well as some juniors will elect to turn pro.
[*]Finally, if there is no college basketball in 20-21, will 2020 signees still be bound by their NLI’s? Could they decommit without penalty and re-up at another school?

While I don’t like waiting on Azzi’s decision, she absolutely should wait as long as she can to get as much information as possible to understand what the college basketball landscape will look like, before making her final decision.
Of course the other possibility is that Azzi really enjoys driving her BFF nuts....
