Geno expected at end of week

Run 4 Roses basketball tournament in Louisville (spectrumnews1.com)

During the first week of July, 900 teams were signed up to play on 60 courts at the Kentucky Expo Center. The tournament is certified by the NCAA, so hundreds of coaches from all levels, all corners of the country have signed up to scout high school talent. Neale pointed to a section of wall next to the arena's main entrance where hundreds of school logos had been taped in ascending rows. They were in no particular order. SEC schools appeared next to division three schools in the collage. Under each logo, a coach's name was listed denoting who would be representing the program at the tournament. Under an image of UCONN's iconic blue Husky, Geno Auriemma's name was printed. One of the most recognizable faces in all of college sports — male or female — was expected to pull up a courtside chair before the week was over

He's probably at Battle of the Best. Katie Fiso ('24) is playing there.

UConn POI that are in Iowa where Geno/Jemelle are today:


Katie Fiso, Devin Coppinger, Chloe Briggs, Jenica Lewis, KK Arnold

 

[Alydar]

McGill played for Park Center varsity (I believe) as an 8th grader but moved to Hopkins for her freshman year. Very talented but following a legend is tough.

[BobbyJ]

Arnold is smooth and under control and looks better here than the previous video I've seen of her. If Auriemma can get a quality big in this '23 class, for the other 2 in this I'd like Booker and either Arnold or Shade for a guard.

 

[DaBball]

Geno on the baseline for Breya Cunningham and Cal Stars:

[BobbyJ]

I still can't believe Lewis is going to be an 8th grader. What a load she's going to be. I don't believe Auriemma is going to waste any time getting Dailey connected to her.

 

[Blakeon18]

Jenica is from Iowa...and FWIW...I do recall her saying that UConn is her dream school.

 

[Blueberries]

Alright. I gotta say it….. I thought I was looking at a track uniform here at first. Perhaps there should be uniform options available for athletes who prefer long/ short/ diaper shorts, etc.?

 

[Sluconn Husky]

Geno was watching Tennessee Flight 2023 today, not sure for who though.
