O/T? D McNabb and UConn women's team

Sorry if this has been mentioned before but watching the Huskies game against Oregon St just now and they showed the parents of UConn player Kia Nurse. I recognized Donovan McNabb sitting with them and I recalled that his wife's maiden name was Nurse and she played basketball at SU.
Checked the UConn roster and it says that Kia is the niece of McNabb's wife Roxie.
If the Orange women wind up playing UConn I would hope that Roxie cheers for her former team. She may have to give up her seats next to her niece's parents.

He said he told her he's all Orange if we play them Tuesday night.

Roxie Nurse, Donovan's wife, met up with a number of former SU women's players in Indianapolis. Also in attendance will be Barb Jacobs, SU's most successful former coach before Coach Q. She's now the head of the AAC womens' basketball officials so Barb is there officially for the AAC (UConn) .

McNabb bleeds orange. Great to see him rooting for the ladies.
