My bad, he just didn't care enough to comment on us.

OR the reporter didn't ask about UConn

OR he did comment on UConn and the comments weren't included.

He must be thinking a little bit about us to mention us third in his quote.

I'm guessing you're a ... glass is half empty kind of guy, correct?

Right, the reporter just decided UConn wasn't worthy of his article... thanks. Maybe he is "thinking" about us, but I doubt very hard if he has nothing to say.

Maybe, I just didn't take that as a good sign. He wasn't shy explaining his relationships with the other teams, but not even a small blip about us.

I always forget this place is the anti-Disney World, the unhappiest place on earth. I don't know wtf I was thinking posting something even remotely in the same orbit as positive here.

FWIW the article said nothing about Florida either but they were also one of the schools mentioned. The article is also about blue bloods. UConn may not have been included because we're not considered blue bloods, no matter how many Championships we've won. (not that I think half of those schools are blue bloods).

And, no he's probably not coming here. We don't get a lot of one and dones but at least we're still in the conversation.

We do get a lot of one and dones. They're called post grads. Either way, I'm not crazy about either kind in building a stable program.

If he said he loved UConn and KO, Chill you'd find something else no doubt.

Lol sure.

What would I say? "He didn't mention killings though...."

It'd be nice if he did say that.

So what's your positive take away then? He mentioned us third in a quote? Sorry I don't get excited over things like that. Someone like iggy telling the reporter he wanted to make a remark about UConn is something worth celebrating. UConn and Florida fans should be happy with the contents of the article.

The positive take away, like I said, is we're at least still in it.

Look, you want to p*ss in someone's Cheerios, go ahead. I was just sharing some news where we were mentioned with a five star kid.

First, I don't expect UConn to land any of these top kids.

That being said, we saw an example of Rivals just last week glossing over a recruit's interest in UConn. Unless Shittu already has absolutely no interest in UConn, I am going to put that on the Rivals reporter rather than it being some big tell about his lack of interest in UConn.

Thank you for posting it. I'm just sharing my take away.

You reporters report what they're told right? They don't just decide school X and Z don't deserve to be in their article.

???

They actually do prompt the kids to respond school by school. what do you think of Kansas? What do you think of Vanderbilt? etc.

These are not highly trained reporters in any case. Most of the time, they are totally inarticulate 21 year old kids.

He, or the reporter counted us as a lifeblood school (and counted MD and ST. JOHN's as the workhorses.
