Message: [QUOTE="EricLA, post: 3547421, member: 26"] That may be the consensus, but there is no proof that UCONN leads, or that we are in the driver's seat, or anything like that. Frankly, I think our chances of landing her are a little less than 50-50. We do have anecdotal evidence and tea leaves to read, since her BFF Paige is all up in her grill 24/7, but that could backfire. Azzi may well decide that the attention Paige has garnered, while nice, is not a spotlight she wants to share. Azzi may also decide she wants to beat Paige, rather than win with her. She's also been to numerous UCONN games (not as many as Boston, for example). She and her family are very tight lipped about the recruiting process. Geno generally gets along well with recruits' dads. It seems that Azzi's dad likes Geno. Other than that, I've seen/heard zero that indicates we are in the driver's seat in any way, shape, or form. Just wanted to add - we've gotten kids younger than her to commit already (Ice Brady), as well as 3 others in Azzi's class. Ice is a kid who LOVES UCONN and has always wanted to go there, but more than that, she was SURE of her decision. Saylor, Caroline and Amari were all sure they wanted UCONN. The fact that UCONN and Paige have been recruiting Azzie for so long with no verbal makes it clear she's NOT sure, and to me that's not a great sign. [/QUOTE]
