Interesting Q and A session for "Q" #2 and her brother.

 

[huskyblooz]

not feeling it

 

[JellyBean]

They have a pretty athletic family.

Blue Star rates Qandance as one of the two top players in 2027. Has UConn showed any interest?

 

[Geew1992]

Think there’s already a thread

 

[FanFromMaine]

Do you know where it is???

I wonder if she knows anyone who can put in a good word for us...

I would just as soon avoid what could be complicated family dynamics. There are other basketball powerhouses out there. I hope Qandance finds one where she can thrive.

Wouldn't you think that bridge is burned?

Not at all. Qadence left on great terms. The brother had UConn in his final 3 this fall (with a visit in September) and only eliminated UConn fully after Colben Landrew (who plays the same position and was the preferred prospect) committed.

Unless you are a member of Qs family/close inner circle, there is no way to know that for sure. Just because no one said anything negative does not mean it went “great.”

It is unknown.

From which you get "bridges are burned"?

Show me where I said "bridges are burned."

Show me where I didn't say "IT IS UNKNOWN."

The problem is that we are in agreement. There is no reason to believe bridges are burned.

I just merely stated reasons to believe they might not be burned.

No we are not.
I did not say " Qadence left on great terms. " There is no hard evidence of that. Nor of the converse.
it . is . unknown.

 

[Zarathustra]

Sometimes it is hard to follow "WHO SAID WHAT" and
"IN WHAT CONTEXT". Best luck to the Samuels!!!! I will
be rooting for North Carolina State this season. Go Girl, GO!

She and the team were fine. She went to the WNBA draft after announcing she was transferring. Which is what I was referring to.

That she and Geno were not cordial seems unlikely, but I guess theoretically possible.

Can you think of any players that Geno's long history that he burnt bridges with?

Just because you want something to be true doesnt make it so. And my main point is NO ONE WILL EVER KNOW. Either way.

Marci Glenney, AEH, Sadie Edwards, Liz Sherwood, ... I'm sure there are more

But that's business. Not every single person is going to get everything they want, and there will be some hard feelings. It is inevitable! Yet some people cling to this notion that every single person who ever enrolled at UConn had to have had the time of her life. It's no shame on the program that it didnt work out that way 100% of the time.

Scholarships are renewed yearly. So each player has a one on one with Geno after the season. Some players decide to leave on their own.
