Interim UCONN Recruiting Update

She does look somewhat familiar. We'll have to get her in the right shade of blue (American Flag) and a respectable uniform number. No hurry, we have almost two full years for that. Can't be National Treasure without American flag blue in your uniform.
Serious question: How long has it been since MN has had a top 10 prospect in girls basketball.

Tayler Hill from Minneapolis South was pretty highly ranked. Angel Robinson (which is her cousin I believe was too). Liz Podominick was highly ranked but I believe she spent most of her college career injured. Nia Coffey was top 25. Minnesota actually has a pretty decent list of WCBB studs... not necessarily top 10 ranked as high schoolers but plenty that ended up doing a lot better than rankings may have indicated. I do think Paige Bueckers has the potential to be the best though.

She visited Baylor on weekend of 28 October. Won 3 X 3 World Championship with Samantha, Paige, Aliyah (Team Quest) last month. BTW somehow you managed to get both the spelling of her first name and last name incorrect it is Hailey Van Lith.

There's young Kim taking instructions from a leading coach of the day ;).
Now Kim wants to be in the same position to do the same with another undersized blonde dynamo PG (who also wears braids).

Never, ever thought of this pairing (Kim - Hailey) before, but it makes sense (from Kim's perspective)....a strong-willed (and strong) floor general.

can't imagine Hailey Van Lith playing at Baylor.......................then again I've been accused by some of having a limited imagination...............;)

Any more info floating around about Haley Van Lithe?

While young Hailey is indeed lithesome, she is not actually Lithe. And yet while she is Lith, she remains lithe. It is all confusing, but I sure hope she comes to UConn and continues to confuse her/our opponents. Btw, your pal Justine returns on Saturday and that should make us all happy. :confused::D
 
you mean the Notre Dame Magna Cum Laude graduate Justine? You have to admit it's a bit ironic that she's landed the UConn job with that resume.................

I'm confused and/or out of the loop regarding this one. First, I know you didn't mean me once you mentioned the words "Magna Cum Laude" after Notre Dame. :rolleyes: ;)
Could someone please explain the presence of an esteemed Domer in the friendly confines of Storrs?

Charlie...and if that can happen, maybe there is a possibility of Hailey and Kim tag-teaming. (Oh gosh, please no....:D)

More than a bit ironic! I view it as an example of UConn's forward thinking, inclusivity, and the quest for the best to serve the program. Perhaps UConn is more catholic, in the lower case meaning of the word, than our Catholic antagonists. If someone brings excellence to the basketball program, Geno and CD will find them no matter where they are! :D
 
Amhiere to SC. Dawn retweeting and liking all her media this morning. Amhiere following all SC accounts on Instagram recently. Couldn’t imagine Dawn doing that if she didn’t pick SC.

Well, you can find out for sure at 6 p.m. tonight, according to the Black Queen herself.
(Wouldn't surprise me at all if Ms. Amihere heads to S.C.)

Should make South Carolina #1 recruiting class with 3 of top 15 players.
 
Anyone else super happy Louisville is getting virtually no recruits (yes I know Nyah Green) but they are losing:
Durr
Fuehring
Diop
Carter
all to graduation and not getting and super studs to fill the spots.

I'm very confused as to why ANY explanation would be required.

surely you knew that Justine Ward was a highly decorated ND alum and an accomplished Irish dancer? I don't believe that this interesting anomaly increases the odds of Hailey Van Lith residing in downtown Waco for four years................but what do I know.:D

Well, I must admit this is a different look than, say, Don Criqui, another ND alum turned sportscaster! ;)

Well the last WCBB center to be a color commentator was one Ruth Riley. She's now the color commentator for the Miami Heat. So, yes, go for it!:cool: :D

Justine Ward is a spy for Muffet. That's why we lost to them in the NCAAs after beating them in the regular season. Muffet had three months of Justine sitting in on UConn practices and funneling info back to South Bend.

Would love to have Hailey Van Lith at Baylor. She will be a huge get for whoever gets her.

Yes. I was rushing. I didn’t review spelling.

More importantly. I hope she comes here.
