Eric,Short answer, is no. I'm not sure why anyone would think she's better than Cox or Holmes. She's never really been a part of USA basketball - I'm not sure if she was cut, injured, or chose not to play, but just because she's a better athlete does not make her a better hoops player...
Eric,
I assume you are talking about Kasiyahna Kushkituah. She is thought by many to be a heavy Lady Vols lean.
She did not make the U16 team this summer but she didn't do that badly either.
For now, she is focused on getting better at basketball. Last week, she was not among the 12 girls selected to represent the United States in the 2015 FIBA Americas U16 Championship. The tryouts, which were held in Colorado Springs, started with 149 girls, and Kushkituah made it to the second-to-last roster reduction, when there were 40 players remaining.

She is only 16 relatively new to the game give her some time.
Rarely does what I want match up with what UCONN does.McCoy is down to Ohio State and Tennessee! I don't think UCONN can slide in there at this point.

At this point McCoy is a must get for Lady Vols No? I saw McCune signed with West Virginia?? maybe.
Most definitely a "must get". If we don't get McCoy this year it'll honestly be a big blow to next year's team. If we don't get her then we're basically counting on Jasmine Jones using her extra year of eligibility. We're really in trouble if she elects not to.Rarely does what I want match up with what UCONN does.

Really? You have a link for that? because she is still has an official visit set up for South Carolina. It's a long way until March when she says wants to make her final decision.McCoy is down to Ohio State and Tennessee! I don't think UCONN can slide in there at this point.

I don't remember seeing anything that said Geno/UCONN "stop" pursuing McCoy. Geno made a home visit with McCoys on March 11th. Many of us speculated that the visit did not go well because no UCONN offer was extended. A home visit in March (during the season when the player was still injured) is an indication of interest IMO.Geno decided not to pursue McCoy while fully recognizing Cox was a longshot.

In the context of recruiting isn't a decison to not pursue the same as having no interest?I never sad there was no interest in McCoy. There was a home visit and no offer was extended. There was a subsequent decision not to pursue her and I doubt that was because the home visit didn't go well. So, again, Geno decided not to pursue McCoy. Muffet made a similar decision.

Only your statement: Geno decided not to pursue McCoy while fully recognizing Cox was a longshot.What is confusing about this concept?
I was referring to the poster who said they wanted McCoy over Cox.Eric,
