I guess everyone doesn’t hate her, like some on here say. Oh and where is Clark?

 

[Lawdawg]

#3? Interesting.

And she can’t even promote herself bc she an int’l player

Any idea why she would be doing so well?

Very misleading the NIL store only provides for 16 schools Iowa is not one of them. This is based of their sales of their Merch not an analysis of value gained

Bc Uconn is one of 16 school apart of that NIL thing and they love her

If word gets out, I could see their international recruiting picking up. Damn it!!

Not sure if that was sarcasm or not, but you realize their starting lineup had five players, from five different countries, with additional players from the countries of Egypt, Portugal, and New York.

You’re right. I hadn’t thought of that. I guess it’s too late. Damn!!!

Auriemma's message: These days there aren't very many American girls good enough to play at Connecticut.

No need for him to verbalize that statement. His actions speak louder than words.

And we’d take almost every foreign players he has. It’s about basketball, nothing else. I’m thinking it’s the other way around. Maybe American talent is deciding to play elsewhere so he is doing what a logical coach who is trying to survive would do. Open the boarders. Question: did he actually say that or was that lvocd take?

She plays in New York at Christ The King if I am not mistaken

Definitely. Hometown listed as Whitehouse, NY.

There are no quotation marks so, no, I gave no indication that he had said that in words, but suggesting it would appear he is feeling like the pickin's are slim among American girls since he is going the foreign student route more regularly.

It would “appear” he may have no choice in the matter. Players are deciding Storrs ain’t the most exciting place to be and he doesn’t look like them or their role models. Maybe the European style of play fits his style of play. Who knows. But it seems to me that we (some not all) Vol fans spend too much time trying to cast negative light on that coach and program. Maybe that’s why or energy with our own is in a state of stagnation. Let’s worry about home. THW all the rest.

It's hard to find American girls who want to play defense. With GA; If you can't play defense you can't play.

You really shouldn’t generalize like that.

Geno said that. It's his opinion.
