And it's not like they had a championship caliber roster. The more departures the faster the new coach can implement her system. I believe they are down to 9 scholarship players right now (if Wells & Darby take their Covid year), so ample portal room. With her uptempo style, I'd think...

Heresy! Elmo is no Devil. He does, however, get exasperated by pet rocks so perhaps some news for the Boulder-based Colorado Buffs?

So many possibilities. Perhaps recognition of 8000 people being in the portal?

Except that 1 and Dones are making millions with their rookie contracts, so their education credentials are less important. She probably won’t even make the W.

gonna be interesting resume

Every time she blocks a shot i hope people yell BOO-YAH

Her parents intended to name her Fickle McQueen, but the nurse misheard and wrote Loyal on the birth certificate.

She didn't retain Jon Harper?

You're missing Kiki Iriafen, Diew (ISU), and Wolfenbarger?

If they don’t do this, I’d question if there are any intelligent people at these universities.

When I looked a few years ago, picks after the middle of the 2nd round had a very low likelihood of making a roster. I think teams go more creative with their picks at that point, seeing if a longshot can work.

Yes, seems odd.

Who was the Black woman at the next table that hugged Nika?

Win NCs.

Lucy Olsen seems to be getting a lot of attention. I’ve seen reports of interest from Iowa, LSU, Maryland, UNC, Tenn.

D2. I doubt NIL is a factor.

Death, taxes, and the portal.

Not sure where else to put this: Maya Rudolph was on Seth Meyers recently where she, a non sports fan, was asked the nickname/mascot for various colleges. Seth: Creighton? Maya: Barrels Genius.

I am SHOCKED!

Plus let’s not underestimate that Williams was supposed to be a recruiting guru …. And the Vols had dismal recruiting results the last few years. So what exactly was her value add?

That's clearly not Storrs. The lack of a mountaintop gives it away.

I think you should apply to be an Admin. Then you can decide what opinions can/cant be expressed. Until then ...

I didnt say it was! But many have responded that "she needs to earn it," suggesting that only the 12 best should be chosen. I absolutely think there are other considerations -- long-term development & experience, reward for service to the national team, and yes even possibly publicity.

Thanks. So in other words, in the last 3 Olympics, the only collegian to make it was the one who was probably already among the top 3 in the world.

You think Lobo was one of the 12 best players in 1996? Her performance in the W, where she was a good but not great player, suggests otherwise.

For everyone who is quick to say “she needs to earn it” …. Keep in mind that the Lobo/Tara/96 dust up was basically because folks thought that Lobo wasn’t among the 12 best, but instead was picked because of her celebrity. (And that is likely to have been the case.)

Looks like Bama making a run for the top tier of the SEC

Has it? Was there one in 2020 or 2012?

In general I don’t believe college players are at the same level as the top 12 pros, and thus arent ready for the Olympics. But the fan interest in Clark is soooo compelling that it would almost surely help the game in the short and long term in terms of attracting eyeballs and keeping...

Agreed ND has so many open scholarships that it can be aggressive in the portal.

Do we think this was the supposed “break the Internet news?” Was Kiki prominent enough to earn that distinction? I’m curious bc we yet to determine whether those folks had actual News or this was all garbage/hoax.

Hannah Gusters to UCF. One-time top recruit to among the worst P5 teams. Bay > LSU > OkSt > UCF

UConn was #11 for much of this year. Now you’re replacing Nika and Aaliyah with Q and Ice and they’re gonna be top 10? lol, no
