Azzi is and will. But she does not have Paige’s personality . It is going to be different. UConn women are just getting hammered with season-changing injuries now. For several years, we were lucky in that regard. No longer .

I would have preferred it if God prevented the injury in the first place. Paige has had enough “ tests” of her resolve.

Still trying to process what this means for the kid - whose entire life had been pointing to this season. Just a couple questions? Why not Nika - instead of Azzi. I'm thinking personalities here - which is what leadership is about. And Carolyn - such an interesting kid. She does have a "big sis" personae buried in all that talent. Finally - Dorka - the oldest and could be "mama bear"?

Anyway - a terrific write - as always Dan. Makes me glad I re-up'd (my subscription).

Last questions?

1. News on Aubrey? I need something positive (besides Kansas) to end the week on)

2. Will Geno go shopping in the portal?

Don’t hold your breath about good news on Aubrey. You already have it. She is post surgery and walking and moving normally. Looks like 100% success for the surgery. But as for basketball, I’m not sure she should even be playing. ( That is just me. ) Every time she jumps, lands and twists, I am going to fear for her.

Yeah.... I'm afraid of that - that her b-ball career is pretty much over. Thanks
