Boston announcement?

[Charliebball]

Does anyone know what time Ms. Boston will be announcing her decision tomorrow? ...Fingers crossed she'll choose UConn!

as of a moment ago I have seen nothing on AB's or her Dad's twitter accounts about any announcement tomorrow.............

Boston and Jones' announcements are the two BIGGEST news items of interest here in the yard right now.
There are a lot of Boneyard news hounds hoping to get the "SCOOP" on the announcement, and be the first to post it. I'll sit back and wait for someone to post the results of her reveal. Hopefully, UConn Nation will be in an
unbridled "festive" mood afterwards. Keep hope alive.

I’d be surprised if the beat writers are there. Maybe the Courant will send KS, but no way Carl and Doug are going.

Correction, Doug will be in the VI covering the team.

Do we know when she will announce?

Cat, you are a "wealth" of information. More often than not, when someone has a question, YOU have or find the answer, a million thanks.

When I log on tomorrow morning at 6:00 am pst, hopefully she will have made her announcement by then.
I'll be holding two drinks, one in each hand. A glass of strychnine poison and a glass of champagne. Which one I toast depends on her. Depending on her choice, one of the two will be appropriate.

Just kidding. It's not THAT serious.

Yes it is, to Charliebball. So you may have to drink the poison.

Please label the glasses CLEARLY.

That's like the old Bobcat Goldthwait joke, "One day I had used so much cocaine that I was sitting at a table with a .45 on one side and an ounce of coke on the other and I said, 'Well, I'm gonna use one of these things' ".

One of my favorites from him was when he did his routine once on stage while taking a shower during a Comic Relief benefit. With the microphone stand in front of him he posited, "What would happen if I touch this microphone?" As the audience screamed he reached out and said, "Suddenly this could become a benefit for my girlfriend".

OK, my fellow WBB wizards (or is it Lizards, I forget) - IF Ms. Boston joins the Storrs gang, does that: A) Make it more likely that Jones joins too; B) Less likely; C) No effect.

 

[husky32]

More likely....

Who knows? But I'd like the chance to find out.

 

[BobbyJ]

More likely....

In one way no effect because they’ve both already made their separate decisions. In the other way more likely. Because I believe they’re linked.

Wow! I had no idea that Worcester Academy sent the entire team to St Thomas to play an exhibition game. Really nice Thanksgiving break, considering how cold it will be in the Northeast over the next few days.

I also note from the article that Aliyah is interested in communications and wants to work for ESPN.

Hmmmmm....

Sounds like she might be interested in a summer internship with Rebecca....

 

[Charliebball]

I believe that's one hour later then CT time.............

You didn't say ESPN...did you?

 

[oldude]

You didn't say ESPN...did you?

Yes I did But I attempted to neutralize any negative connotation by also mentioning Rebecca.

 

[MilfordHusky]

Should be around 10 pm our time, for the announcement,

They are later than us. I was thinking about 7:30-8:00 EST.

So if Boston's team plays tonight at 6 PM EST, then has her signing ceremony at say 9 PM, and doesn't sign with UConn, how could Jones change her decision, and have everything notarized in time?

As you imply, Jones has already made her decision. We just won’t know what it is until next week.

Atlantic time is GMT -4 and eastern time is GMT -5. It is just after 1100 hours there now.
