Can we celebrate yet?

[MilfordHusky]

I've been busy breaking my foot and moving to Florida. It's been an...exciting summer. I'm looking forward to restricting my excitement to the basketball court.

Broken foot? Ouch!

I hope it has healed and you are enjoying Florida!

That's true, but she got her complementary pass from UConn. If she was sitting behind the tOSU bench, this would have been a much different conversation this morning.

If she decides to sign with the program that showed the better post play yesterday I think we're doomed. 15 offensive rebounds from a couple pedestrian bangers. Ouch.

There goes another billionaire moving to Florida.

Why can't I copy and paste GIF's anymore? Moderators? Anyone?

Broke it two places, actually. The bone is fine now but the muscle and tissue around it will take a while to fully heal. It just aches every now and then after long walks or challenging exercise.

It’s still quite warm down here, low to mid 80’s although a cold snap is coming and temps are only expected to be 70 on Friday. I might actually have to wear long pants or a cardigan to keep warm.

Haley Jones via ESPN.com on November 14.

Has a time been schedule for the Jones announcement tomorrow?

Has a time been schedule for the Jones announcement tomorrow?

I was wondering the same. I'll look. My guess would be after school, maybe 3 PM PST (6 PM EST).

Based on verbal commitments, ESPN lists MD with the #1 recruiting class. At this point in time UConn doesn’t even make the top 20. We haven’t seen a situation like this since, well, last year when Liv & Christyn announced at the 11th hour. Fingers crossed....

It sounds as if you are most of the way there on the rehab. Best wishes!

Enjoy the warm weather. Connecticut is a nice place, but the climate can be challenging.

She's not announcing tomorrow.

Dorf, you appear to have inside information. Inquiring minds want to know?

I am absolutely with you! View attachment 36261 They would be a very nice frontline with Aliyah at center (Tina like power center), Olivia at forward (fingers crossed Stewie like), and Megan at wing/forward (Pheabby like). I said like, not exactly like since they will all develop their own style. However, if their style has a bit of Tina, Stewie, Phee, and Gabby I will not complain.

I like your thinking!! Pheabby or GabpreciousMeg?
If Geno see's a Pheesa in Megan character he shall bring it out. Olivia, at this point is a better forward than center and under Geno, if Stewie is hidden in there ---he'll push shove pull her out. I don't want Aliyah to be a TINA like --it took Tina most of 3 years to start being Tina. It would be great should Aliyah, at Uconn, become Tina next year.

 

[BroadwayVa]

Seeing how you call oldude "son", you must be really old!

You asked me the same question---fixated ? There is always the possibility they are related!??

Tina Charles averaged 13pts/8rbs/2blks a game and was the National Freshman of the Year and Big East Freshman of the Year in her first year. If Boston does commit here and puts up numbers like those, I will be ecstatic!!!

I like your post so much I copied it thrice! I''m of the opinion none of these current or future recruits MUST be a carbon copy of a past standout. IT IS sufficient they become the best CW, Coombs, ONO or Boston, Jones they have the talent to be--and I think there is a lot of talent in those bodies. I do celebrate some common threads that run between them and a standout.

A couple of positive news will change this like last year. I remember the last 2 years final games when the last shot didn't go in UConn favor. It's that close. I am anxious and antsy and worry.

Can we all agree now that this thread was a bad, bad idea?

I'm halfway surprised to not see a Oldude after the announcement
