Message: [QUOTE="Huskee11, post: 4241675, member: 7171"] I would be mildly interested in knowing how this UConn statement that Dan Connolly tweeted about occurred, why it occurred, and exactly what was said. It seems a little odd that UConn would affirmatively jump in on the subject and put Geno in a semi-awkward position like that. And I don`t think they actually did do that. Why? No one else is reporting on it. Dom Amore for the Hartford Courant is reporting this afternoon the initial story based on Geno`s comments, without Connolly`s qualification. Since Connolly seems to be the only one reporting it, I`m guessing HE initiated contact with someone at UConn and asked whether an "official decision" (his words) had been made, and (not surprisingly) UConn was not able to give him a "yes" to that. We don`t know and probably won`t know the specifics of the conversation. For that matter, we don`t know if any of the current players will be back. None of them has made an "official decision". (Don`t get alarmed now.) But bottom line, I wouldn`t be too concerned about the lack of "official decision" confirmation. If Geno felt comfortable saying what he said, that`s good enough for me.
