Agreed it requires more creativity. Yesterday's ESPNW piece on KLS says it is between UConn and ND. Hopefully she chooses us and sees long-term value of Stanford, especially when we seem to be in the hunt for another top 5 in her class, with a commit from top 10 Wilson in the next class.

Thanks for pointing out that article

although I do hope the speculation by her AAU coach and her Mater Dei coach turns out to be wrong.  They may not have as much interest in academics or in family, after all, as the Samuelsons do.  At the same time, Katie Lou is reputed to be quite a very competitive and independent personality, so we cannot count on the sister connection defining her choice.  Let's hope she makes the forty year decision for her own reasons.
