Message: [QUOTE="Blakeon18, post: 4221034, member: 35"] Juste Joycte's name has come up on occasion as a possible recruit...from Lithuania...16 years old... she has been tagged by some as the best player of her age in the world. Coco has mentioned that she could be in the class of 2023/2024/2025...no certainty. She plays in a pro league but I believe she still has amateur standing. Certainly she will have pro options over there. It seems to me that if she has NIL opportunities in the USA that might be a factor in deciding to come to play in college here... whether that be UConn or anywhere else. So: with 'reasonable certainty' [oxymoronish for sure]. Was she born in the USA? Some folks have suggested that is true...is it? If she was born here, does that make her a USA citizen? That would make her eligible for NIL revenue. If not a citizen then no NIL money. If she is a dual citizen of the USA and Lithuania, does that make her eligible for the NIL? As to what college she could conceivably attend? Well...I know one that gets a lot of pub/has a lot of sizzle and might be just the ticket that NIL might find appealing...hey...they already have shown that with several of our favorites. 2023 recruiting is off to a great start...room for more greatness with POI's on both sides of the pond.
