The Final Words
Connecticut Head Coach Geno Auriemma
“Courtney (Paris) is not getting a lot of attention from the national media. All they want to talk about is kids that can dunk, but right now she might be the best center in the country. She might be the best freshman out there right now.”
ESPN's Nancy Liebermann
“Courtney will own every record at OU by the time she's done.”
