2025 Recruiting: Lara Somfai commitment decision on 11/13

Well, there are some good arguments for her, that’s for sure. Again, I like her, I think she’s a nice player and she is 6’4”! I’m just not sure where her playing time is coming from. Some here have apparently given up on Ice, but I have faith she will eventually play up to her #5 ranking. She is big, strong, in shape, and finally healthy! Plus, she’s a lefty:) I think last year she was not in great shape and never really felt it until those few games in the tourney. I think she will rise to the occasion and push her way (effectively) into the rotation soon. As for Lara, I hope she does come. If Geno wants her, that’s good enough for me.

When you're as good as she is and have the talent to play all over the court Geno will find court time for her......how does Dawn keep her group of high school All Americans so happy?

IMO she'll commit to Stanford....reasons: Stanford degree, weather and more playing time. I'll be ecstatic to be wrong!

If she does that, poor Dad will have to get rid of the UConn gear he picked up on her official visit. Pictures 4,5 and 7.

Yeah, it looks like he shelled out a lot of green. That letter jacket looked pretty spiff.

The letterman jacket is prop for photoshoots, he didn’t keep it.
 
She just posted on Instagram she will he making her announcement on the 13th.

Hopefully it's the good guys. I got a good feeling!
I wonder if the fact another Australian just committed to UConn - the men's team. Do they know each other? They or their parents can fly here together (before the 1000 comments I'm just having fun with the idea and not being too serious).
 
Unless I'm missing something on Instagram... she's still liking a ton of posts of Stanford's page, and I'm not seeing anything anymore from her with UConn or Duke.

I think it's Stanford now.

We have a gem of a wing with Blanca coming in next year, and another post player in Gandy. Hopefully we can snag Olivia Vukosa the following year.

I’m confused. Did the law change regarding foreign student athletes and NIL?

I think she started following Wasserman while on her Stanford visit. I think she's heading to Stanford.

Probably because they’re based in California and it would’ve been easier to meet as opposed to at Duke and UConn. I’m still holding out on hope.

Just came back to say that Lara has liked UConn’s last 10 posts on Instagram. :D

Tomorrow should be very interesting.

Relax and read the first two sentences on this again. Has she posted anything like this about the other two visits?

I like the optimism, but understand the concern because the Uconn reaction was in May, the follows of our competitors are recent. If the order was reversed I would be very confident, nearing on certainty, but that isn't what happened. The indirect clues allows us to see the glass half empty or half full depending on what you want to give more weight to.

Ok that's good news then! For some reason I'm not seeing her likes on the UConn page, just saw them on Stanford. Thanks for the update! I guess there's still hope yet! :)

Stanford has a post and a reel.

Her final 3 are UConn, Duke & Stanford. Her parents reportedly favor Stanford

But then again, so did Rebecca Lobo's.

From what i see is that if you dont actually follow Lara you wont see her likes! My friend follows her and she had liked BOTH teams recent post! But more uconn post than Stanford. I want to say uconn but it can go either way!

The same exact thing happened with Sarah Strong though. We were convinced she was going to Duke because she followed all their players after her visit. Seems like Sarah worked out for us in the end. Now what’s most concerning to me is all the WBB accounts predicting it’s Stanford (they also predicted Sarah would go to Duke, so they probably can’t be trusted either). But maybe they know something we don’t?
