Geno’s sailing off into the sunset of his career, and girls still wanna go there? Anyway, glad we got Joyce!
We've known for some time we weren't gonna get this girl, despite some significant connections to her. It only means one thing: she's not the kind who wants to work her way up.

That’s exactly right! Dawn is VERY clear with players and their families…EARN YOUR PLAYING TIME.

I am familiar enough with her people to know that isn’t true. We were competing with some good programs with very good academic reputations for her. She decided to not pick us. We move on with Edwards, McDaniel, and Tac.

Thank you for being today's poke-ee. :ROFLMAO: I was beginning to think we wouldn't have one. I was one myself day before yesterday. ;)

i don’t understand Wardese so I can’t even be insulted. 😂
No need to be. When I wrote that original comment, I did so offhand. I figured someone would counter right away with a contrary opinion, maybe even carrying a certain degree of indignation. I was eager to see it. I had almost given up hope. ;)

Yes, we were competing with a couple of schools with very good academic reputations and UCONN. She chose UCONN.

I maintained she would never play at the same school as Edwards. I wasn't wrong.

I was with you from the beginning, that we get Edwards OR Strong but not both. I got hoping when she came to our home game.
Frankly I think UConn is a better fit for her. First off they really need her and Geno’s scheme is probably more tailored to her specific gifts than ours.
