Message: [QUOTE="Tonyc, post: 3146574, member: 73"] We needed a one year wonder and we may not have gotten Superwomen and we didnt get Alice in Wonderland either but we are far better off then we were a month ago. For next season we needed reinforcements and we have two so far in Anna and Evelyn and both have good experience. They should both see playtime next season along with Griffin. I still think we get another one or two players for up coming season. Typically Geno recruits replacements for starters every two years. For example Onos replacement in the middle will be either this season or next. Our future looks bright with Paige and Nita next seaosn and the following season I really believe we get Fudd. Geno is not finished yet this season or next. He is recruiting UConn type players, players he wants that will fit into his system and his culture the culture he has built UConn on. Players from overseas seem to be looking for an opportunity...a chance to do something special with their lives and UConn is the opportunity and America's WNBA is the Dream to go along with the opportunities overseas. I have a good feeling that Geno has a Big in place. We havent heard about her yet but with all that has gone on over the past few months I do believe we have someone else in the wings who will fit into UConns requirements and fill into the UConn system. Our biggest recruiting people are not the people on this board who have connections. It is the UConn alums who are playing all over the world that are the contacts that lead Geno to the promised land. I have no inside info but I have a hunch that Geno has someone in the wings. JMO folks I ve been around since 1995 and I kinda have an idea and its just a hunch but I think we will be surprised by the end of the summer. [/QUOTE]
