It's going to be a BOMBASTIC Tuesday, that's for sure,
as #1 Juju WATKINS and #5 Hannah HIDALGO announce
their college commitments as a fitting culmination
for the early signing period.
And the common denominator: STANFORD is a finalist for both.
I think Stanford has a better chance with WATKINS, and this goes
all the way back to her declaration during her HS freshman year
that "she plans to continue her education at Stanford".
Plus I like the narrative that, as a former #1 overall recruit
(Haley JONES) closes her illustrious college career at Stanford,
another #1 overall recruit (Juju WATKINS) - playing pretty much
the same position at SF - takes over.
On the other hand, my gut feel with HIDALGO is Notre Dame
(somehow, this is based on her "God first" persuasion,
which I like and admire, and that a PG tandem of Olivia MILES
and HIDALGO looks really good!)
But we can still hope that a SAME DAY announcement
will produce the SAME RESULT for both....why not?
