Ever the quipster. Yes, I could have dumped this into a 250+ thread, but I didn't. For all I know this is lost in there already and if so I apologize.
We see some of the recruiting and Geno's approach through her eyes in this fine piece from ESPN:
UConn lands No. 1 2020 prospect Bueckers
A taste:
"He thinks he can do great things with me, and I think so, too. That's why I chose UConn. I can't wait."
"I love what they do. It looks like so much fun," she said. "I know there's pressure when you have UConn across your chest, but I love pressure. I love when the rival fans hate you -- that makes the game more fun and entertaining.
"UConn plays with passion. They play the game the right way. They play team basketball. They play hard. That appeals to me because I'm a team-first player."
In the end, Bueckers said her choice came down to five words:
"When you know," she said, "you know."
