A UConn board that I have frequented over the years and have had many good respectful conversations on regarding all things WCBB. I know a number of posters from way back in the ESPN message board days. I have family that are diehard Husky fans. So I have a different level of respect for the fan base and know most of Husky nation to be respectful and kind and true fans of a sport we all love. Shading a teenager for a perceived notion of "living in a fantasy world" based on a few quotes is something I will always speak out about and a number of your fellow Husky fans have written much to the same sentiment in response to the negativity thrown at a recruit.

On a UConn board anti-Holly and anti-Tennessee things are to be expected but directing insults specifically at recruits and players (often implying they are of lesser character and therefore not UConn material) based on nothing is a bit low. I offer the same reaction on Tennessee boards as well. Actually do it far more often on other message boards.

Good luck to you and your teams remaining targets. I'm a big fan of Boston and Jones and will only wish them the best.
