Not surprised here at all! We here in Chicago thought she would end up there with Janee Thompson! Great pick up for the wildcats!

Great pickup for the Wildcats! The #5 player in the 2013 class. I believe she had Georgia, Tennessee and a few others on her list.

Kentucky now has ASGR #6 & #15.

Kentucky now has ASGR #6 & #15.

I had to look at AGSR to see who #15 is (Makayla Epps a PG who initially committed to Louisville). HG ranks Epps at 37 and lists her as 3 inches shorter than AGSR (which also lists Harper at 5'8" which she is most definitely not).

Well easy explanation, if you are on a Fila team you are 3 inches taller than your real height!!!

I see Linnae as a good get for the Kentucky "system"...

The Kentucky women are starting to emulate the Kentucky men's team... in recruiting terms.

Congrats to Linnae and Coach Mitchell. She'll do we'll there. This was not a big surprise, as she is following her friend and teammate.

Kenny Kallina nailed this one.

Great Pickup for Kentucky. IMHO they still need a quality post player if they're to win the National Championship

They have Walker and Stallworth for 2 more seasons. Not a bad post duo.

Bishops as well. She should contribute more this year. Kentucky is solid in the post. Just not a dominate player.

They'll be fast and scrappy...

I think people keep forgetting about Stallworth (6-3 athletic post). She will be quite a presence for them in the post and the growth of Azia Bishop should also be something to watch. she showed at times last year that she can be a force!

I am really anxious to see if Matthew Mitchell can take the Wildcat's to the next tier in WCBB. I would like them to be in a FF.

Baylor, UCONN, Duke, Kentucky this year???? Maybe!
