Ortiz is down to Oklahoma and Purdue.

Rooks's recruitment is a bit of a mystery, but I've never seen evidence that Michigan isn't still on her list.

EDIT: This report says Ortiz is likely to decide between her two finalists this weekend.

Thanks! I've just gone by the snippets I've seen here and there, but was hoping to draw upon the great expertise that lives on this board.
Updated.

The list I saw was from Prospect Nation, 8/22 and is the only current information. This report has Stanford still on her list though some Stanford fans think Tara is done for 2014. We'll know soon enough.

You're saying Michigan isn't on the PN list?

 

[UConnCat]

You're saying Michigan isn't on the PN list?

Yes.

 

[Raoul]

Yes.

Well, then, perhaps take Michigan off the list. I've just found what's been reported about her to be incomplete. For example, I know that she visited Indiana in June, and yet Indiana has never been mentioned in any of the lists from the recruiting "experts."

 

[Raoul]

This article from early August seems to be the latest on Alyssa Rice, indicating she's down to Kentucky and Virginia. Full Court reported the same thing back in June.

Maybe she didn't like her visit to Indiana. Seriously, it could be they're just guessing, or maybe their source (likely AAU or HS coach) is guessing at this point. I know there are some who've questioned whether UConn has actually offered Rooks a scholarship (though it's almost September and I'm not sure why UConn would be pursuing her at this late date and not have offered.)

Comments in pink.

 

[Vowelguy]

Comments in pink.

Thanks for the effort! I had figured some of those out, so sorry you had to do all that work, but thanks for the rest.

Looking for any help on who these kids are looking at:

(17) Monique Billings .(F ,CA) -- TxTch,UCLA,SDSt, ??

Not sure if UConn has offered Billings, but there was a video interview posted on YouTube back in July in which she listed UCLA, Cal, Baylor, and UConn as the schools she was looking at.

 

[caramel]

Can't remember where I saw the video either,but she did say UConn was in her sights.She is a good talent,but I haven't seen anywhere about an offer.

 

[Raoul]

Nared is taking an official visit to UCLA this weekend (as are Drummer, Billings, and others), so UCLA should be added for her.

 

[stwainfan]

I think most of these will give a commitment before the season starts.

 

[HGN]

There is a good chance that many of these young ladies will make commitments before the season gets underway..........Don't want an injury during the season and desired schools pull back their schollie offers.

 

[Raoul]

Did some further digging, and I see now where UConnCat got the info on Rooks. It does look she's named her finalists, so please take Michigan off her list.

 

[tnvolfan65]

Nared is down to UCLA, USC, Ohio State, Oregon State, Louisville, and Tennessee.

Nasheema Oliver is down to Georgia, Maryland, Notre Dame, Florida, and Miami.

Is there any specific reason you highlighted certain teams and not others?

Also, was Baylor's recruiting class even that big last year? Or have they been affected by Griner's comments that hard? Only one of the top 50 uncommitted even lists them as an option.

That's amazing how many top recruits Coach McGuff has gotten to take a serious look at tOSU in his first year.

Also, I can't imagine all those girls being THAT interested in TN.

I'm guessing vowelguy is just having fun highlighting certain teams, but you cannot color too many because you run out of colors and start repeating.

Baylor already has a commitment from Micayla Buckner, a 6'4" 4-star post. McKenzie Calvert decommitted this spring (post Griner debacle) after having given her verbal in 8th grade. Right now Baylor is listed as recruiting LaJahna Drummer and Monique Billings, but there could be other recruits they are pursuing.

I figure that was the case but thought I'd ask because it was going to drive me nuts trying to figure out if there was a reason and what the reason was.

Oh I missed Billings' BAY.

Color coding was ad hoc - basically teams that are listed a lot and are of interest.

 

[Vowelguy]

Baylors problem is that no one has emerged behind Sims, so they shockingly might not be a very good team in 2014-15.

So we're down to just 4 possibilities? Ugh.

No, above just shows current top 40. UConn reportedly interested in Kia nurse too.
