Where do we think she goes? I have a strong feeling that she wants to be a husky!
 
I really want her but I am thinking UCLA as well. Did she even take an official visit to Storrs?

That I don’t know. I do remember seeing her at UCLA though, via IG. I am keeping the hope just based off the Crestwood connection between her and AE. Also, I see a few Huskies following her as well, so hoping that is a good sign also.

Curious, why isn't this posted on the Recruiting thread? I could understand it if she was on Geno's radar, but that doesn't seem to be case.

No need to be curious any longer. Good shout. It’s now in the recruiting thread.

Yikes, it will be another one of those days where I'm checking The Boneyard every five minutes. Fingers are crossed and I guess I better go fetch my lucky rabbit's foot out of storage. Let's hope she makes some of our dreams come true.

As you can see from this Nov. article, Auriemma has been recruiting her for quite awhile since this was her top 8 back then.

Watch: 4-star girls forward Toby Fournier adds another dunk to highlight reel

Dunking in a dunk contest is one thing - doing it in a live game is another. Crestwood Secondary (Toronto) forward Toby Fournier can do both. She won top prize in April at the

we only know she visited a few schools of her top 8 schools. But I’m thinking it’s UCLA. “Her father” mentioned on twitter earlier this month that she was choosing between UCLA and Duke and that she already decided

I heard she doesn't really have a 3 point shot and I can't exactly see Duke as the solution to that problem. Because they're totally known for developing offense;).

Why is "her father" in quotations? It comes across sarcastic which doesn't seem necessary.
 
There was a question in some peoples' minds about the legitimacy of the twitter account that was attributed to her father. I suspect Toby's selection of school lends legitimacy to the tweet.

So, we can get Toby out of the portal after she decides she doesn't like Kara. :D

Hard pass. We want the type of player who wants to be at UConn not someone who decides later on. It’s a specific kind of kid who goes to Connecticut one with an exceptional work ethic .We want the type of player who wants to be at UConn not someone who decides later on. It’s a specific kind of kid who goes to Connecticut one with an exceptional work ethic. And they desire to be the best they can. Connecticut has proven its ability to make players the best they’ve ever been. Over the years of watching women’s basketball, I am seeing top recruits, go to other programs and never really progress to a top-tier player. I’d rather see the player who wants Connecticut and watch them develop overtime on the Gino and staff. Connecticut has shown that they prepare their players better than anyone else may be a little sour grapes but I hope she does well with her choice.

I don't know about that it seemed to workout well with Dorka and Lou. If someone wants to come to UConn after their Freshman or Sophomore year and they fit UConn's needs and are approved by the coaches and players, I say why not.

Well obviously we weren’t recruiting Dorka and Lou during high school.
