Bueckers? Seriously, show me Azzi doing the things Paige can and did do as a sophomore.
She's a bad piece of business. Can run P&R, P&P in her sleep.

Reading comprehension is fundamental. I suspect we have a good shot at Azzi. I have been searching for something to explain her indecision. I came up with the pure conjecture - notion- that it may be a desire to be very close to the family, hence Maryland. I believe it is healthy fun to root for Azzi joining our Huskies. Some treat it as a foredrawn conclusion. That is unrealistic. I have no "pessimistic notion that she will head elsewhere." I have not said "Maryland has a better shot than UConn...." Being attacked for things I did not say is a pain in the butt.
Enough with Azzi Fudd.
She is not coming to UCONN.
Like Geno has said in the past he only wants girls who want to play for UCONN.
If she was really excited to come and had dreams of playing at UCONN she would have committed by now.

Do you remember the video of everyone sitting around the Fudd kitchen and Grandpa Fudd told Tim, 'When Geno calls tell him ....". Evidently Geno and the Fudd family are very familiar with each other. My feeling 60-40 Azzi plays with her best bud in an attempt to be the best WCBB player ever.Enough with Azzi Fudd.

I think Stewie replied at the last minute.Really? UConn hasn’t had a lot of players commit during their Senior year? Didn’t Olivia commit during her Senior year? No one cares or remembers when players commit. They only care about where you play.
It is great wisdom to not provide too early a reply in case situations change later. Look at Charlie Collier; if she did not commit until after the hurricane she never would have committed to UConn. Once the hurricane hit she knew she didn't want to be too far from home in an emergency.I can give a really good reason. Suppose that it was Miss St that Azzi loved so much that she committed last November, fully 2 years ahead of the normal signing period. She tells the other schools that they lose and then months later she finds out Vic is gone? Sure, she can re-start the process but as someone stated, it's late in the recruiting cycle and while any school would figure out a way to take her it would be a messy process. For Fudd what she is doing makes perfect sense if we take her word that she doesn't know, and I believe her. Bueckers knew and didn't want to jerk other programs around. Look at Brady.
A lot of recruits that winnow down their list over time like to keep UConn offers open just for the prestige. Fudd I think is just slow at deciding but I'm sure there's a schedule.
My suspicion is still UConn for the reason that it offers the biggest challenge and that has been a big magnet for HSPOY types like Moore Stewart et al. Fudd is the best and works like she's behind. The lure of UConn is in the challenge.

Actually, a recruit doesn't have to sign an LOI at all. They can show up for the start of the college semester/quarter classes before the final day of enrollment (like Sabrina Ionescu did at Oregon), and sign an ASA.Here's another, very logical reason for Fudd to wait, at least if they have a season this year. I believe they have until the spring of their senior season to sign, correct? If that is the case Bueckers can give her a detailed report on playing for UConn before Fudd needs to make a decision. Not saying I think that is the likely reason, but it would be a smart reason.
So did Liv and C. Williams. Geno was surprised by both of them.I think Stewie replied at the last minute.

I read that he was. I know you know better than I do.No he wasn't.
"Surprised" is not the right description, but it is true that he was not sure of their decisions until about 24 hours before they announced it publicly. He was hopeful but not certain, just as he probably is now about Azzi.So did Liv and C. Williams. Geno was surprised by both of them.
Really? How? Maybe EDD could join them. She is in that area often.Is Paige moving to Maryland?....... does anyone know what part? If she moves close to DC she could go to St Johns and be a teammate of Azzi
If she has a time machine and travel back a year then they could be teammates. But if she doesn't, Paige will be a freshman at uconn this upcoming season.Is Paige moving to Maryland?....... does anyone know what part? If she moves close to DC she could go to St Johns and be a teammate of Azzi
Yes, she could if she wants to repeat her senior year.Is Paige moving to Maryland?....... does anyone know what part? If she moves close to DC she could go to St Johns and be a teammate of Azzi
If a girl is apprehensive to commit to your school because she’s worried about starting as a freshman then let her go some place else...and I’d be willing to bet Geno would feel the same way. I also would be willing to bet that’s of zero concern to Azzi. She’s 100% a team first player and by all accounts really just seems to ‘get it.’ She’s super talented, unselfish, a great teammate and extremely hard working....it’s just super obvious the minutes will be there as a freshman and I gotta think starting is a non factor and of no concern to herThis might offer some insight into Fudd going to SC. Last year Staley started 3 freshmen and kept them in the starting lineup all year. They developed quite a bit. Geno and freshmen don't usually mix. Even the #1 recruits like Walker and Williams have not fared all that well in their Freshmen years. This might be a concern to Fudd. I know if it were me it would.
In one of the interviews/videos, Paige said her family is moving to Maryland. I don't know where. She could be up near Delaware, out toward West Virginia, on the Eastern Shore, or near D.C. My guess is that she'll be in the D.C. Metro Area, as that is a huge source of jobs, but I have no idea.Is Paige moving to Maryland?....... does anyone know what part?

I'm about 1.25 miles from Elena and 6 or so miles in the other direction from Azzi. Surrounded by great shooters!Really? How? Maybe EDD could join them. She is in that area often.
