Reminder - Div 1 NLI early signing period begins Wednesday Nov 13

Geno MAY be asked about recruits in tonight's post-game presser. If so, he may talk about 4 or 5 players. Or he may say he'll talk about them when he gets all the LOIs. If he says that or talks about only 4 players, that tells us what Piath's status is.
 
What about Gabriel?

I'm sure we'll hear something about her signing. Either through "official" channels, or perhaps Alexa Philippou, the Courant's UConn WBB beat writer.

I strongly suspect that Geno did not want to talk about any of the recruits until all the recruits were "in the barn" so to speak. I suspect that Piath may have signed her LOI, but just hasn't broadcast it on social media. If I am correct, then Geno and UConn were waiting for Aaliyah to return from the FIBA competition and make it official, which she did earlier today. In any event, the early signing period ends tomorrow, so I anticipate a media release by the UConn SID either tomorrow or Thursday.

That sounds about right, but I prefer Geno's ad hoc comments to a prepared release.
 
Piath's IG and Twitter accounts still show her verbal commitment to UConn. I'm not concerned.

Does it have to be signed by tomorrow or delivered tomorrow?
Just curious...
Signed and dated yes. Delivered no. If you recall, last year Haley Jones delayed the delivery of her LOI, even though she had signed it, due to the wildfires in Northern CA.

I also think that Geno wants to keep the focus on this year's team.

Either way I thought that LOI’s typically are faxed. Once the player signs the paper, it’s faxed, and at that point it’s binding. That’s my understanding.

So while the BY was expressing concern about Piath’s LOI, she obviously had a much more important consideration in mind, that of sharing the occasion with her teammates during a school function where all of them would be honored together. Sounds to me exactly like a player we would all want to join the Huskies.

You are soooo RIGHT! A Uconn kid. Team, School, Family FIRST before self. Love it.

So I have to ask, do the two UConn greats shown before each recruit have some significance? Specifically, is each recruit supposed to be some combination of the two UConn greats that precede them? If so, Nika has one hell of a challenge in front of her living up to the example of Stewie & Maya....:rolleyes:

I don't see any discernible correlation between past greats and the newbies. I guess since we have a top 10 and 5 signee's, just put 2 greats to every signee.
