Ogwumike is headed to ...

Stanford according to a report in the Houston Chronicle. She is expected to make it official within the hour when she signs her national letter of intent.

The decision is not an unexpected one considering that her older sister Nneka is a sophomore on the Stanford team and academics was very high up on the 6-foot-3 Ogwumike's list of priorities and there's no questioning Stanford's academic credentials.

UConn made a strong impression on Chiney and Notre Dame also made a late push but in the end, she made the decision most assumed she would.

The Huskies' class with Ogwumike would have been sensational. But a class featuring Bria Hartley, Lauren Engeln, Samarie Walker, Michala Johnson and Stefanie Dolson is nothing to sneeze at.

Look for reaction on UConn's recruiting class later today from Geno Auriemma.
