Paige Bueckers to UConn

[oldude]

Possibly the best recruit since Stewie.

Or perhaps the best recruit since Christyn?

Carl talked to Carla.

Best since CW. I think sometimes she gets overlooked as a recruit because she is so nice and has had her freshman challenges but she is a program changing recruit too.

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.......

This should calm you. I was starting to worry.

 

[ABCDFE]

The ND board is having a meltdown?

Geno told her, "What took you so long?"

I mean nothing is certain but the fact that Azzi had scribbled down a goal set by Shea Ralph I think shows that she respects the UConn coaches and program. I only hope it also means she will commit to us soon

 

[Biff]

Holy Cow. I just watched her 3 minute mix from her Soph. year. I want to say who she reminds me of but I don't want to jinx it. Just watch for yourselves and enjoy.

She'll be pretty good if she could just learn how to pass!

 

[Fairfield Fan]

Now the Bigs! We need 6'3" and taller. Fingers crossed!!!!!!!

Great find, and a great compliment to our fans:

Bueckers said she has strong relationships with Auriemma and assistant coach Chris Dailey, and she has loved her visits to the UConn campus, most recently on Nov. 2 for a Huskies exhibition game.
"The fan base is so amazing that it felt like we were playing Notre Dame in the NCAA tournament instead of an exhibition," she said. "I want to be a part of what UConn has built.
"The women's team is loved on campus. Women's basketball is what UConn is known for, and it's not like that at other schools. To see that support for women's sports is awesome."

For once not being a football school actually helps.

Welcome, Paige...can’t wait to watch you play!

Fixed it for you.

 

[BobbyJ]

Possibly the best recruit since Stewie.

I would agree based solely on talent. As a guard she appears to have no real weakness except possibly strength. And that will come in time.

 

[JordyG]

Yes, for now Mil. But if Fudd follows we are going to re-address this topic; if Horston steers that ship toward Storrs, man are we going to be in a tizzy!

 

[RockyMTblue2]

I agree with someone else. She reminds me of someone who will not be named for now. Be patient. We'll see.

 

[UConnCat]

Love it.

 

[huskeynut]

WOW - I go to a CERT meeting and I miss it. Sitting there following the Baylor/ Iowa game and seeing Iowa is not going to make it. Come home to check the Boneyard and the huge announcement.

I guess Geno can still recruit! (Said with a whole lot of sarcasm).

 

[01Neaggrad02]

Possibly the best recruit since Stewie.

Seriously? Lou, Pheesa, Crystal, Megan, Christyn?

 

[huskymaniac119]

I want the Triumvirate
1. Final Four
2. PB committing to UCONN
3. Stanford beating ND!
That would be freakin awesome baby!

I wish I could give this 100 likes.

It is scary to think what Geno can do with Page in 4 years. Dial 1-800- Taurasi.

 

[NewCorn]

A couple things:

1) I thought home whites would be better than NFB.
2) We know that Geno is not a fan of "1" so I gave her a new number to consider.

Aw, let her have #1.

Aw, let her have #1. Swag is her thing, and she can back it up. Go Huskies.

 

[winlots]

Can I get an A-MEN !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

VAMIKE: Hell yes, you got your AMEN right here - and an A-Woman too

 

[Charliebball]

This should calm you. I was starting to worry.

thanks, I surely feel great relief but UConn needs a whole bunch of other recruits too, I'd like to think that PB should make that job a lot easier.........

 

[Charliebball]

Seriously? Lou, Pheesa, Crystal, Megan, Christyn?

time will tell but very possibly yes..................she can do everything on the basketball court exceptionally well...........................

 

[maddoggy]

She is hard core bleed blue. Nice to see their are still young people who can appreciate an exceptional program from the good ones and is not frightened by it.

I would like to extend my thanks to the fans that show up for exhibition games. You may be more important than you realize if your enthusiasm was part of what made her choose UConn.
