The person I heard about most frequently really working to "sell" UConn basketball to potential recruits was KML. I have no doubt Caroline and many others, including Maya, have helped as well! Geno, Chris and the staff do a phenomenal job making a family environment for these girls and part of that is insuring they get the "right type" of recruits coming here, the ones that will contribute to that mindset.

I didn't know that, but it doesn't surprise me at all. Kaleena has a fabulous personality, a great sense of humor, and three National Championship rings with which to sway any recruit. She may very well have influenced her fellow Mater Dei alumna to come East. Kaleena is a special young lady on and off the court, and I think Katie Lou has the potential to follow in her magnificent footsteps.
 
Kaleena worked to get recruits to play with her. Stewie, whom she dubbed "Baby Husky," is a prime example. Additionally, Kaleena has a cheerful, magnetic personality. People want to hang out with her--or play on her team.

Rocky I see where you are going with this but you do realize:
1) DT and Sue were in training camp maybe even playing games
2) There would have been absolutely nothing wrong, if Sue and DT were playing pickup at UCONN- The NCAA rule is that you can "occasionally" play pickup.

Excuse me!!!! DT is resting in her bed counting money

Could NEVER be as classy as your dook coach McCallie who regularly threw her players 'under the bus' in post game pressers. Could NEVER be as classy as your dook coach who addressed her disappointed players after a particularly ugly loss at UNC saying "I wish they could walk home, to be honest with you." Keepin' it classy, dookie.

When triadduke posts, does it automatically insert a :rolleyes: at the end of every post?

Yes - in fact I believe triad only uses emoticons to indicate things like 'I am serious - :(' 'I am angry - :mad:', and 'I am ashamed - :oops:'. At all other times one can assume some combinations of the following to be included: :cool::confused::p:D:eek::rolleyes:;). Unfortunately being a Duke WCBB supporter, he almost never has a chance to use the following: :).

:cool:

This morning it dawned on me as the sun rose that DT and Sue were abroad years and years ago when a nameless/faceless person accused them/her of being at a recruit event! Paranoids make very poor reporters. So, Coco I'm giving you credit for #1 as being very clever. :)

Thanks Rocky. I want to spread the credit around HuskiesU correctly pointed out that DT was more likely in bed counting her money taking off the WNBA season. To head off any potential future investigation DT is pictured here in the attached 5 days doing what she does best-collecting rings- on opening night for the Mercury.

Buzzboy - good info. I put this on the long list of reasons why UConn has 10 NC. Since it starts with recruiting, UConn has the genius of Geno/CD/Shea/Marisa and the vital input of championship level players. I wonder if Lou and Collier (not experienced UConn players yet) will at least pass on some inside info about Cox?

You just never know do you. Yesterday it was revealed in an article that Molly Bent, an A student and keenly interested in a schools academics, and being chased by X Ivy League schools, chose UConn in part because of an internship requirement at Ivy League schools (news to me) that she did not like. Never no when a little bit of information will tip the scales.

I got the dreaded sign up or lock out with Slu's url. The above should be clean. I really, really like this kid. thanks for the heads up Slu.

BTW: That is a very old picture of Molly so no one lose their lunch over the knee brace and the caption underneath it is all wrong. Barnstable Junior...NOT. She left Barnstable High for Tabor 2 seasons ago.
 
Bent's recruitment gives us noninsiders - noninsiders to the whole AAU womens recruiting , coaches lives thing - a fascinating look at the process and UConn inside it. This article brings more.

"Coach [Moseley] watched about a half of my game and then had CD [Chris Dailey] come over. On the second day of the tournament, Coach [Shea] Ralph came over to watch, as well, and I think she saw three games, two on the second day. That was the day she brought Coach [Geno] Auriemma over."

So, apparently, Geno plays golf and has told everyone not to bug him unless they have consensus! :p Hardly. Many a pix we have seen of Geno alone high in the bleachers; but clearly the entire crew was all over this tournament.
