UConn General Team Recruiting Thread

[superfanwbb]

If I'm not mistaken I read somewhere here that you are part of SkimMilkeys community. Did he/she share anything regarding Bjorn/Robinson recently in which direction the winds are blowing? (if you are willing to share that information of course)

Skim had said Bjorn was leaning toward UConn with Kansas top2. And that just as she was 90% sure McKenna was going to Iowa, she was now 90% sure Bjorn wasn't going to Iowa. That's what I was told. And then Talia Goodman of On3/rivals came out with a 60% prediction that Bjorn would go to Iowa, with UNC the biggest threat. I don't know who to believe. Unless Bjorn's inclination has completely changed because McKenna is recruiting her to Iowa. And Skim's prediction was before McKenna's recruitment work with Bjorn. Either that or one of the two insiders is very wrong.

That isn’t what I read as a subscriber to Milkey. I’ve only seen her say Kansas for Bjorn with a large gap then possibly UConn and a few others.

I'm not a subscriber. Someone who is a subscriber told me. Didn't Skim say that he was 90% sure Bjorn wasn't to Iowa? And that Bjorn had a certain inclination to UConn? And that Kansas had some chance because it was close to her home and she had some personal ties there? Don't get hung up on the exact wording because it's a wireless phone lol. So it's more about the idea Skim conveyed than the exact wording.

No, Skim stated what I relayed above. Kansas is most likely but not a guarantee at this point. I have not seen skim associate Bjorn with Iowa at any point.

Kansas be the most likely is a little surprising.

Not every kid is entirely focused on having a shot at an NC.

True but Addison Bjorn has talked about wanting to win a NC in several interviews she has given so Kansas would be surprising to me as well.

And this was something Bjorn always mentioned in interviews: that she wanted to win an NC.

If that’s true, then Kansas doesn’t look like a realistic prospect. Unless her parents insist that she stay close to home.

Maybe that's why many people began to say that Uconn was Bjorn's fav. It was also reported that she visited Storrs several times. I don't know if Uconn was truly the leader and lost ground, or if she was just a rumor.

In response to @RSHERMVIKES question emoji, I merely meant that if a kid’s top priority is an NC — and not all kids make this a priority — but if they do, then a school like Kansas looks like an odd choice. I’d expect them to favor schools that have been past the second round of the tournament recently.
