Does anyone have any information regarding the games being played over the Thanksgiving holiday.
I believe the four schools are UCONN, Purdue, Ole Miss, St. John.
Are the hotels on the island up and running after the most recent hurricane season.
Where might the schools be staying?

I'm no expert on St Thomas but it appears that most of the bigger hotels seem to be open but under construction................just read lots of complaints on Tripadvisor about the Ritz Carlton.................if you are thinking about going be sure to check directly with the hotel to make sure everything is OK...........

This is when Boston should make her decision right ?

I believe she will be there at the same time as the team but don't think she has set an exact date for her announcement.............from what I have read here the rules wouldn't allow anybody from UConn to be at her announcement as neat as that would be if she chose the Huskies......

Thought I had seen where the Marriott Frenchman's Cove where the teams usually stay was closed until 2019. But I just checked their website and they have some rooms available this month (but not during the tournament).

Signing week is Nov 14-21, with the Jam set to begin on the 22nd. While UConn can not be present at Boston’s signing, Boston and her family can certainly attend the games with UConn providing “complementary attendance” passes. I suspect Geno already knows whether or not Boston will become a Husky.

you see I could never be a coach.......................if I knew she was coming to UConn I would be pointing to her at the game the other day and giving the thumbs up and raising my hands to the rafters.........................both definite NCAA infractions!!!

Geno is more subtle. He probably turned around and gave her a wink and a nod. ;)

In a July 27, 2018 ESPNW article (Walter Villa) - There is another homecoming set up in less than two months. The Worcester team will travel to St. Thomas Nov. 17-23. Boston plans to sign with her national letter of intent during her trip home. This year's early signing period for Division I college basketball is Nov. 14-21.

She gave no specific day or date, just that she would sign the LOI while she was at home. I agree with those that think that if she’s coming to UConn, she’s already informed Geno. That trip to the Virgin Islands could be a memorable one. UConn could leave the island with 3 wins, and a commitment from their most coveted recruit of the 2019 class. :D
