I cannot believe LB is coming to UConn. First, I don’t think she’s interested and second, I doubt that Geno is either. He has about as talented a roster as I can remember already, with numerous talented bigs (admittedly only one is a proven star) and is likely concerned about chemistry issues, especially given the mother’s prominent social media presence and some of the purported comments she has allegedly made in terms of her (Mom’s) preferences as to who she would prefer to coach her daughter. These are all potential pitfalls that Geno has outspokenly avoided in the past and I just don’t see that changing. Of course, there is also the possibility that she has been taken out of context and that despite her social media presence, she may be the most supportive, cooperative, and hands-off parent in the world and that Geno is using this time to get to know her and her daughter’s hopes, dreams, and commitment for finishing her college career at UConn. Still, I will/would be shocked if she ends up at UConn!
I do wish her all the best though, as everything I’ve ever heard about her describes a talented, hardworking, and likable person and we cannot have too many of those in sports (or the world, for that matter). Unfortunately, I’m afraid she is likely to be a thorn in our side for the next three years wherever she goes.
