Message: [QUOTE="oldhusky, post: 4624320, member: 9844"] We don't really know who the unnamed top 5 recruit that Geno was alluding to is, or what rating he is talking about. Hopefully that was not Cheli, and I haven't seen her top 5 on any list I have seen, so unless Geno considers her top 5, it appears someone else is out there that is waiting to make things official. I guess Strong or Carlton could be that player, but a foreign player playing professionally would have an obvious reason for waiting, so they wouldn't create a distraction, or affect her current team's chemistry, so that makes the Jocyte dreaming interesting. What year raises some questions as well. In theory Jocyte or the C prospect from Kenya (Okot) could be a possibility for the 23/24 season, while Strong or Carlton would be a year later. The issue with that is that we only have one spot available for the next season and might be pursuing Betts. As I understand it, Jocyte has a contract that still has a year or two more to run that allows her to pursue college in the US if she wants to. So she could choose to use that option this year, after next year's Euro league season, or maybe never. Maybe Geno's comments were misconstrued, I don't know, but I think you are right that the end of her season potentially could free her to announce something if she was going to do so. [/QUOTE]
