Bria Hartley signing set for Thursday

Just spoke to some people at North Babylon High School and while UConn recruit Bria Hartley is expected to sign and fax her letter of intent on Wednesday, there will be a press conference at the school Thursday at noon where she will do a mock signing for the assembled media's benefit. This is hardly a new phenomenon, that was how it was done when I went to Delaware for Elena Delle Donne's letter of intent signing (see, I do mention Delle Donne's name in this blog on occasion).

Assuming all goes as planned, UConn should have the letters from Stefanie Dolson, Lauren Engeln, Hartley and Michala Johnson by the time UConn's practice ends on Thursday. UConn coach Geno Auriemma will be able to comment on those four players once he has their letters of intent so look for that in this blog on Thursday and in Friday's edition of the Register. Unless Samarie Walker does the same thing and signs the letter before her actual ceremony, there probably won't be any comments on Walker since she told the Cincinnati Enquirer that she is planning to sign on Friday. If that happens, rest assured Auriemma will be asked about Samarie after Saturday's game.

Here's an update: Engeln will sign the letter at home tomorrow, surrounded by family and a couple of friends, according to her high school coach Jim Martin.
