Carlton plays the same position as Sarah Strong and they were both class of 2024. I recall Carlton visited LSU officially. Her other finalists were UConn, South Carolina, and Arizona, but I don't think she visited any of those 3 officially.

Audi Crooks to OU it seems . . .

No. Crump was a big reason why 2026 Bjorn signed with Texas in November; they played club ball together. Hope Bjorn still comes to Texas, but there's already been two 2026 signees in Olivyah Edwards and Trinity Jones who asked to be released from their signed LOI's. Carlton had a lot of ups...

I'd completely forgotten about Gilbert being at LSU

I've wondered this since it happened, but why did she choose Iowa State? Even though she played her last two seasons of high school in San Diego, CA, I see that she now considers Missouri as her home state. Other than proximity, I couldn't figure out why she chose ISU.

Good luck to her. Loved her work ethic and personality. She was not part of the Texas basketball program or enrolled at Texas this past year as far as I know.

"Hearing" (as in someone verbally told you) or "reading" the rumors on twitter like the rest of us? There's a huge difference.

Jada Williams played a couple of high school seasons in San Diego and college seasons at Arizona with Texas' Breya Cunningham. Anyone know who this twitter account is? They don't appear to be a Texas fan, so definitely not a wishful thinking kind of comment.

I'm gonna say this strictly from the outside looking in. I just don't think Georgia prioritizes women's hoops over its other female sports. I recall they poached the women's track & field head coach from Southern Cal a few years ago the week after she won the NCAA Outdoor team championship...

Tells me they've been working on this for several days if not weeks. Plus, the portal opens tomorrow. The sooner a head coach is in place the better. Will still take a while to assemble a coaching staff unless she brings several from McNeese.

You don't get to where Dawn is by not working extremely hard; and, you have to continue to work hard to maintain the level of her SC program. But, leaving for just about any other school would require her to work a lot harder there for several years than she would if she stayed put in Columbia.

How do you recruit the portal when you have no returning players to host potential incoming transfers on official visits? Not sure I recall a scenario like this. Transfers taking visits rely on their host players to inform them about the program, coaches, campus life, social life, college...

Do they? I've brought this up a few times the last year, but I was surprised OU didn't get an impact transfer this offseason. Other than Chavez who they supposedly spent $1.5 million NIL on from Jordan Brand and Trae Young, they brought in no impact freshman. So, what is my point? I get the...

Only Sahara Williams will be a returning starter as Beers and Verhulst move on. Lose another senior. So, that leaves 7 returnees as only 11 on this season's roster.
