The Kia Vaughn-Geno story enters the second day of the news cycle.

NCAA recruiting rules prevent Geno and staff from commenting directly, but UConn manages to tell its side of the story by giving "anonymous source" quotes to the Connecticut papers.

According to the sources, Apache Paschall, Kia's AAU coach, lied to them about Kia's visits to Rutgers and Maryland. After her visit to Rutgers, Kia didn't contact them for a week, so UConn terminated the recruitment effort.

Paschall, obviously enjoying the media attention, tells his sob story to anyone who will listen. "Kia just got to the point where she felt like she was being pressured." "The kid is hurt." Oh, cry me a fucking river.

His story also seems to be changing. Monday he told the Register that the biggest problem with UConn was that Kia "want[ed] to play right away as a freshman."

Yesterday he told the Post that Kia "didn't care about starting" -- all she cared about was finding a father figure who "was going to take care of her."
