Not sure if this is just a glitch on my Instagram or if it’s real, but it would appear that Sarah Strong has unfollowed Azzi Fudd on Instagram. Can anyone else confirm if this is true or not? I can confirm Sarah was following Azzi yesterday.

That seems to be the case. She doesn’t follow UConn WBB on Instagram. I think she only follows Edwards and KK of the players on UConn. Still follows LSU and a few more members of the team.

She also follows Aubrey Griffin, Ice Brady, and UConn commits Allie Ziebell and Morgan Cheli. Morgan Valley and Tonya Cardoza as well.

Sorry! I forgot about Griffin and Brady in my searches. I figured the committed players were players she knew from the USA basketball circuit and she’d have friendships outside the the recruitment with them. She also follows Kelis Fisher.

Kids that understand how to use up fakes and shoulder moves under control are very rare at 16 years old. Her footwork and shot variety are real nice. It's obvious why Auriemma offered her so early.

Wouldn’t read much into it!! Many players from all schools follow each other!!! Most of these players have played together on AAU teams, national teams. If Sarah wants the best coaching and a long wnba career UCONN is the place, if she wants to play for Mulky who doesn’t challenge her team with only cupcake teams then she will end up at LSU!! I’m not impressed with the SEC!!! It all comes down to what she wants!!! Hopefully it’s us but it won t be the end of the world if UConn doesn’t get her!! UConn will be loaded again next year!!

When it comes to Sarah Strong, if she is visiting UNC this weekend, I question the veracity of the insinuation that she committed to LSU at the in-home visit. I understand not canceling the UConn visit the day before but no reason to give UNC the run around with a week to digest the decision. But what do I know really?

Even following Ashley Battle

The thing about Strong's IG account is that she's gots lots of followers and follows, she has never posted anything to it. I think she is in the habit of keeping lots of things, maybe all things, to herself.

I’m sure she has a lot to work on and I haven’t seen her play in a game really or anything like that but to me she looks unlike anything I’ve seen. A must have.

Even following Ashley Battle

Ashley works with Sarah's mom. They both seem to be friendly with each other.

Smooth under the basket! Besides making her shots.... I always love to
see those nice passes. Note also the reverse layup.... Thanks for the video!!

So much for the post yesterday that said Sara had nailed her choice down to 2 schools and would make an announcement later that day on twitter. Don’t know where these idiots get their information!

I think they said the end of the month, unless there were two separate posts.

I believe end of the month would be her final decision.

 

[marti3td]

Wasn't the breaking news yesterday that she was down to UConn and LSU? Or was that just hearsay and not official?

I believe it said she was going to announce her final 2. No specific mention of UConn only speculation that it was UConn and lsu.

Just hearsay, other website are saying UNC is making a late push to take the lead.

Sarah isn’t following UConn wbb on Twitter either. NC State looks like a new follow by her

UConn‘s team account doesn’t follow players until they’ve committed, most other programs follow players they’re interested in (Morgan and Allie are still followed by teams like UCLA, Stanford and coaches like Kellie Harper, Kyra Elzy and Brenda Frese).

Sarah only follows team accounts/Coaches (Cardoza, Valley) that follow her, so I wouldn’t put too much emphasis on that.

 

[Bald Husky]

If it's not us, I wish she would just say so. The suspense is killing me and I can't stand being disappointed again. Get it over with already. LOL

I empathize, but it is kinda what we signed up for. Whether we initially knew it or not.

Many of us are holding our breath as we log onto the Boneyard this time of year!

Social media makes it worse. Ever feel like you are getting punked?

She isn’t following the team or coaches. She is following coaches of other teams
