Paige Bueckers to UConn

[Wbbfan1]

Azzi Fudd is Class 2021, they'll be room for both. Both have the ability to play either guard position.

I'm all about this celebration, but:

How if at all does this impact the recruitment of Azzi Fudd?

This is amazing news. The quotes from Paige in the Tribune article show that is a person of a great character. Paige's playmaking abilities greatly remind of DT

I clicked on this thinking it was an April Fool's joke, but i just got the ESPN notification on my cell phone. also, if you go to hoopgurlz, it shows her as UCONN already!!! WOOOOOOOOOOOOO HOOOOOOOOOOOO!

Welcome to UCONN Paige. You will be an instant favorite I know, and while I hope you follow in Stewie's shoes and win 4 NC's, I also hope your UCONN experience is rewarding from both a hoops AND personal perspective. Welcome to the next great one!!!

As a UCONN fan, now I'm hoping the dominoes continue to fall our way in 2020...

This better not be an April Fools joke.

Welcome, Paige! You’re going to look great in National flag blue (oh, @Biff)

Paige Bueckers, top-ranked 2020 recruit, picks UConn

Hopefully this is the 1st and they'll be a couple more for 2020..

I second all the A-Mens!! I also second those that hope this break in the ice and the damn breaks (damn recruiting!).

Azzi Fudd is Class 2021, they'll be room for both. Both have the ability to play either guard position.

Azzi can play the 1, 2, or 3. Paige is more the 1 or 2.

 

[MilfordHusky]

Welcome, Paige! We've loved you for a couple of years now and will love you forever!

 

[Kaizen]

Yes ... what a great news

 

[Charliebball]

When I saw this I thought of April Fools but if this isn't a prank it will go down as one of the most important days in recent UConn recruiting history................as I've said for a few years now, it would be a mortal sin for her to go anywhere but UConn and apparently she agreed.................

 

[BleedBlue72]

Wow didn’t see that coming!! This could be a generation type player. UCONN is back in the talk of keeping there dynasty going. Next year could be a difficult season but the following season with Paige on could be a domino effect and could end up turning into what South Carolina signed for next season!! Holy Moly what a great 2 days!!

Congrats to you guys. So much for the supposed decline of Geno's recruiting pull. And I guess I called that she wouldn't end up at Stanford, if only by a few hours:

This is 2019 not 2020--a long time between now and show up time. We've had disappointments before. Let us not celebrate to loudly just yet.

 

[MilfordHusky]

For people who haven't been paying attention, Paige played on an undefeated Hopkins team this year, was a star with USA Basketball (5 on 5 and 3 on 3), is the #1 recruit in 2020, was a Naismith Finalist (with Jones and Fudd) as a junior, and has been described by more than a few as the next Taurasi. She's better than most #1s.

Azzi can play the 1, 2, or 3. Paige is more the 1 or 2.

Sees herself as a 1, apparently:

 

[DaBball]

Bueckers' other finalists were Notre Dame, Oregon State, Oregon, UCLA, Minnesota, South Carolina, Maryland, Texas and Duke.

This better not be an April Fool’s joke.
Maybe she heard Katie Lou’s postgame interview yesterday and decided it was time !

 

[j66kicker]

Love the shirts!

 

[DEpup]

The joy of the Lville win continues. She must have watched the game and just couldn't hold it in anymore.

[DeeHusky]

Van Lith and Paige next!!!! We want em all!!

 

[Charliebball]

You must have frightened her. A venial sin wouldn't have meant damnation but mortal, well?? Poor kid. Can you please frighten 3 or 4 more?

I've been doing that, just not sure if they've been listening...................

 

[Topsail]

didnt Geno say recently in some interview that some good announcements to come?
