Maybe best quote ever by Geno - "if you finish bleeding all the red that's in your body, then you are allowed to bleed blue, then you are a true Husky"

Recruitment....Yes!!

 

[UConnCat]

Love this video.

• Great recruiting tool: 27 All-Americans; 18 Final Fours; 11 National Championships
• I don't know how any recruit could say no to Kevin Ollie.
• My first thought looking at the shot of Breanna from behind at the 1:00 mark: she looks and walks like a basketball player. The Natural.

So who is #12, long blond ponytail and a southpaw?

The kid who was the potential walk-on last year whose name I don't remember. Some parts of the video, i.e., Geno's words, the practice segments (including #12), were shot during the preseason last year.

Tierney Lawlor. 5'7" (But she looks taller ).Walk on from Ansonia, CT.

Thanks for clearing that up. I was pretty sure Chong was wearing #12 but then I saw the video and was confused. Makes sense now...

I'd go with Amanda Pope.....the walk-on that had to drop out due to injury last year.

Chong is wearing #12 so I doubt it is TLaw. Pope makes sense.

"If you finish bleeding all the red that's in your body, then you are allowed to bleed blue. Then you're a true Husky". Great stuff. That was a quote from Geno btw.

I believe Pope's name was Becca.

And I think you are correct

 

[DaddyChoc]

Amanda Pope was a awesome local HS player... forgot where she went to college UHart maybe?

 

[meyers7]

And I think you are correct

It happens occasionally.

I think there were lots of notes about name. They all started Re:Becca.

Wish she'd have been able to come back this year.

I got chills when the end of the video was listing the Men's & Women's combined accomplishments.
