Griffin was one of 18 finalists for the 2018 USA Basketball U-17 Team.

Griffin comes from an established athletic family. Her father, Adrian, played basketball at Seton Hall and in the NBA for nine seasons and is currently an assistant for the Toronto Raptors. Her mother, Audrey, ran track at Seton Hall. Griffin's older brother, Alan, is a freshman on Illinois' basketball team. She also has a younger brother, Adrian Jr., and an older sister, Vanessa.

Ah, not a good sign.

More sarcasm, right? (I think there should at least be a sarcasm emoji. . . )

Ummm, no. Usually when a University announces their class, that's the class.

 

[HuskyBandDad]

Ummm, no. Usually when a University announces their class, that's the class.

Really? Never any late signees?

 

[meyers7]

Really? Never any late signees?

Don't really recall UCONN ever having a late (Spring) signee?? (maybe Sveta??)

 

[pvdoggy]

Ummm, no. Usually when a University announces their class, that's the class.

I thought Stanford and ND have also announced their class. I guess that leaves SC?

The final nail in the coffin of the 2018-2019 senior class recruiting debacle. UGH! I know we have a lot of optimist on the board, but this is 100% proof that Jones isn't coming here.

Mark it down, she is going to South Carolina.

Ah, not a good sign.

It’s good enough! To have zero players sign is not good so I wouldn’t say it’s not a good sign!

 

[TitleTown]

Ah, not a good sign.

The writing has been on the wall for a long time, Horston,Jones,Boston(Bueckers and Fudd) were never coming to UConn.

Kyla & Molly were spring signees

 

[Fightin Choke]

Kyla & Molly were spring signees

No they weren't. Both signed in November.

Bent: LINK

Irwin: LINK

 

[meyers7]

Kyla & Molly were spring signees

Don't think so.

State College, PA - Kyla Irwin signs with UConn -

Not good enough for me.

Maybe.

No, they weren't.

Oh well! Jones will sign with UCONN tomorrow. After she signs I hope some of you leave for a month so I can enjoy my Christmas.

 

[hoopsfan22]

Well I guess this means plenty of room for 2020 and 2021 recruits. Gonna have lots of schollies to give out. Lose KLS and Collier this year, and Crystal Dangerfield, Bent, Batouly, and Kyla after next season. That's six players out and only one in.

Welcome to the UCONN family Aubrey Griffin. I hope you have a fabulous college experience and a stellar basketball career!

Yes, be thankful we've got Aubrey on our team.

 

[oldude]

Maybe.

SC also announced their class and then they made a 2nd announcement on Boston.

 

[oldude]

No, they weren't.

You are correct. What I “mis-remembered” as spring signings, was actually later announcements on Kyla & Molly after UConn signed Crystal but lost out on Cox.

Well I can't see Geno not waiting the extra day before putting out the press release. Maybe Haley is making all her calls today to let the coaches know her decision before announcing first thing tomorrow morning. Perhaps Geno just received his thanks but no thanks call. South Carolina put theirs out a few weeks ago, so maybe they didn't seriously think they were in the running for Boston.

Good post @Topdawg. About time someone pointed out who is coming and not the players that are not.

 

[j66kicker]

All Geno announced was AG’s signing, not “the class.” No, “We’re done” comments, nuthin’ like that. Geez...
