The same is true at USC. have heard rumors that p mahomes was willing to fund texas tech if chavez committed 3- schools with already established “collectives” lsu texas and the usual football schools with a history of paying players the Sec is pretty much there from where I sit what this means for uconn Is that the pool of players that they can recruit will get even smaller than it is as guaranteed $ will get in the way there is incredible value for the players in theUconn brand along with the best record of player development unfortunately that is primarily due to GA for me I have totally enjoyed the team the last two years and think there’s probably a few more years before the game mirrors the men’s side! enjoy the treasure we have!!
