thought that we were favored to land her.

During an era of "irrational exuberance" I thought that ND

had a good chance of landing her, partially because of her support of Sam Brunelle. I now believe that her strongest personal tie is with Bueckers. As BTFND mentioned elsewhere in this thread, it wasn't so long ago that the question of "Could ND take both Bueckers and Clark?" was taken seriously.

We need to realize that consensus top ten prospects are hard to sign. If ND can sign one per recruiting class that will create the core of a championship team. Right now, there is one on the roster: Sam Brunelle.
I regard Peoples a Top 10 recruit in reality..... *

Just to name a few. I think all fan bases get irrationally optimistic. And we may have led at one time with all these and others - teenage girls change their minds.

I don't think Azzi Fudd is a longshot nor is she a sure thing. A lot of time remains.

The one thing we all need to realize that her father will and is actively
involved in her recruiting. I doubt seriously she ends up at a place just
to be with Sam or with Beuchers. He is looking for more than just a
basketball school. He is looking for what is best place for his daughter
on and off court. Remember he was very vocal and concern about early
transfers that has been happening. Believe he had a pow wow with MM bout it.
If early transfers is a major concern of his and a deciding factor. UCONN
is in more trouble than we are. I wonder what school has shown her the most
love while recovering from her serious knee injuries. Next month we will
start hot and heavy into the 2021 class. Until than, I see no true leader
or favored. Again, Just my educated opinion.

P.S. I really believe Olivia could be a factor into Fudds recruitment.
