Kara Lawson UNFOLLOWED KiKi Rice on Instagram last night (ouch!). This would suggest Duke was notified of her decision to go elsewhere last night. I had anticipated Duke to be a very probable destination being a strong academic, “close to home” storyline with a like able, young coach seeking to return their program to prominence. Interesting. 

Meanwhile, Adia Barnes went on Instagram and started posting some cryptic, celebratory “story” of her recruiting coordinator with clapping/dancing hands. I consider Arizona to be the least likely destination of the 5 finalists. 

All so fascinating. Thankfully it’s over today.

Very interesting! Regarding the AZ angle, I could be totally wrong on this (I hope not!) but I think Adia Barnes' Instagram story is likely completely unrelated to Rice or any specific recruit. My reasoning:

1) I agree with paloalto that Barnes is very unlikely to steal Rice's thunder re: the announcement.
2) Kortney Dunbar just joined AZ as recruiting director in August and posted the photo of herself on her own Instagram account, which Barnes then reposted. The photo looks like it was taken at an AZ WBB preseason event or photo shoot or something like that and they're introducing Dunbar to the fans.

Again I could be totally off the mark but that's what I'm thinking!
