Christyn Williams's Final 2: UConn and SC

[Charliebball]

well I hope that somebody on the UConn coaching staff is hipper then we are................Dawn and Co probably have Meek Mill's digits on speed dial..............

Really don't like the theatrics, drama, and cryptic social media posts of today's recruits. Pick a damn school, send in your papers, thank the coaches for their time and offers and be done with it.

I don’t know your age.. but I’ll just say a lot of young people post randomly about irrelevant things. Twitter is really a stream of thought thing for millennials.. being a millennial, I’m familiar with it. Christyn probably isn’t even tweeting about her recruitment here.... it’s people that use twitter as more of a news source instead of a stream of consciousness/form of communication reading way too much into it.

 

[Ozimoto]

I personally am approaching the "get off my lawn!" age.

 

[JordyG]

Yeah. Most Millenial's are too busy treating the internet as gospel. Making them too self involved to even consider the fact that an internal monologue posted forever for all to see could possibly come back to haunt them.

On the other hand, we oldsters are far from blameless. Just look at all the #Metoo postings we see. Not to mention little things like nuclear threats and the national debt. Frankly, that is just the tip of the iceberg of the stuff we got wrong.

EXACTLY!!! I remember when Megan Walker posted a picture of a new pair of Nike sneakers that were coming out, that were designed to pay homage to a basketball. They were a basketball colored leather that slightly resembled Texas' colors. Everybody on here immediately thought that meant that she was going to be a Longhorn. When in all actuality, it just meant that she liked a pair of sneakers.

 

[Bestiarius]

any of you psychology majors want to analyze this statement for pro UConn sentiment?.

I wish I could help. I had a double major in college: psychology and reverse psychology.

You'd have to be naive to believe that stuff is simply coincidence. No, like the Kardashians, there is some part of recruits that get off on the "will she won't she", "is she or isn't she" aspect of it. When people do stuff like that on social media, they know what they are doing and why they are doing it.

 

[Carnac]

Let's face it. Some people crave attention, and social media is an excellent inexpensive way to get it. "Likes" and their number of followers are very important to them. The more they get, the more their ego is stroked, and the more they want.

Duh.. Every pair of shoes in that picture has American flag blue, red or white. That clinches it for me.

Uconn can definitely use Williams, and she would fit a nice need going into next season, possible starting 2 Guard by the middle of the season. Only one game in but , it looks like Walker will be used as a back up four.

Would not put too much stock in that (Walker as a 4) because Camara did not play, KLS tweeked her ankle early in the game changed the rotation somewhat and Gabby was ill leading up to this game.

I can't forget that A'ja Wilson NEEDED a huge press conference to announce her college choice and Stewie signed hers on the hood of her Dad's truck! A'ja is still high maintinance and Stewie "not so much"! Stewie is the dictionary definition of under the radar personality! If recruits want to be fawned over UCONN is the wrong place for them!

Easy. The front shoe (first, #1) is Sandalwood colored. There is a Sandalwood High School in Florida. More people from Connecticut retire to Florida than from any other state.......soooo....obviously this shows she's a UCONN lean.

Stewie signed her letter of intent back in 2011, that was a long time ago, Times have changed since then, social media is what the new age kids are into.

I have given up on CW playing for UConn because as far as I can recall (may not be very far) no Husky recruit made such a spectacle of signing.

I like that you're going with "ill," Coco. Now if I can just get my grandkids to listen to me...

She's religious, right? This just seems to me like CW's definition of the word "faith."

Williams is gifted from the film I have seen. Social Media is important to young people and it is here to stay. Williams has handle this well and she will enjoy this her announcement with her family and friends. Remember Geno went to see her the next morning after our 100th win and showed her how much he wanted to coach her. Also, he gave back to state of Arkansas Coaches by putting on Clinic
so he showed her that he cares for all women basketball players in her state.
She will make the decision that works best for her. She is class act. I hope she wants Geno.
