Nation's #1 Recruit Christyn Williams Chooses UConn!

[FlyRyGuy]

Sooooooooooooo happy!!!!!! Anybody have the video?

There was a white screen and, just as CW said, "...and I will be continuing my basketball career at....." [sic], several girls with UConn shirts on came out from behind the screen leading a real husky dog.

HaHa. Easier to handle a Husky than a Gamecock.

Congratulations on the commitment!

I thought that when SC signed Henderson Uconn had a good chance of landing Williams.

Pretty funny how she broke the news to Auriemma.

She called him and said "Coach I have some bad news for you", when Auriemma asked "whats that?" she said "you are going to be stuck with me for the next four years".

Not only did she commit. She committed for 4 years. That sounds legally binding.

I guess the little birdie decided to fly north for the winter instead.

Wonderful news. While UConn has yet to land a needed BIG (fingers crossed for ONO), the talent at guard and wing over the next few seasons is unbelievable.

I have to say it one more time, “UConn is really really BAD for WBB!!!”

 

[RockyMTblue2]

She wants to become legendary.

She did say in that ESPN interview that she wanted to be up there on the wall with UConn's legends. I assume the interview will eventually surface on ESPN.

 

[FlyRyGuy]

Does anybody have a link to the video?

CW must be a snowbird.We have a lot of them here in So. Cal.

 

[oldude]

I love the ESPNw comment by CW about Geno, “He had me at hello.”

 

[pacific 44]

A left hander who did the right thing.

 

[psconn]

Christyn sets her goals high... "I want to be legendary"... "like Maya Moore or Diana Taurasi".... HOLY SMOKE!

I remember a skinny kid from NY who set a crazy goal when she signed too...

 

[MilfordHusky]

Over the moon. Sooooooooooooooo happy! Welcome to the family Christyn!!!

You are now halfway to doing that double-flip belly-flop into the snow.

I’m so over the CW commitment (JK) . On to Sam Burnelle!

Video here - No. 1 prospect Christyn Williams signs with Connecticut Huskies

That video is not a video of her announcement, but it's a must-watch for UConn fans. ESPN pre-announcement interview (she told them where she is going before she announced publicly). Other gems include a video interview with Geno after he found out, and Christyn saying she is often compared to James Harden, but she doesn't like that because she isn't "just a lefty" - she's "ambidextr-i-ous." (Geno will hopefully be able to help her with this remarkable lack of self confidence )

Also, the accompanying ESPNW article says ONO will announce on Wednesday.

I posted the announcement video above but here it is again for those that missed it.

The firepower from Meg and Christyn will leave other teams shell-shocked.

Don’t get ahead of yourself. We still want ONO!!!

Thanks!

Well we can all relax now because UConn finally has a 2018 recruit. Welcome CW. May all your dreams come true. We now a terrific backcourt. Dangerfield Walker and CW on the floor at the same time. wow.

 

[Kaizen]

I have said, new news is good news.
ONO will pick UConn too ....Go UConn

 

[MilfordHusky]

Correction: Though Christyn shoots left-handed, she says she is ambidextrous. Imagine, a left-hander who can go right!

 

[Dougie]

Congratulations to Christyn and the Huskies!

Video of Christyn's announcement

I'm in Sedona AZ on top of Doe Mesa and checking my phone every 5 minutes. All I can say is wow!

No slight. I just think her skill set and position fits closer to Maya and Diana.
