2011 Number 5 Player Forthan Leaving LSU

Wow. But you probably have me on ignore too.

something about him/her

Um, I would downgrade Pope a bit. While she is certainly more productive for Baylor than she was at RU, I'm not sure that she plays at a level above what would be considered "average" on any BCS competative team.

Most RU fans don't miss her, but a lot of fans followed her on TV and no one thought she has lived up to her potential.

I consider Pope a quality transfer. Her offensive skills can improve but she is a good defender and rebounder. However, in the championship game against ND she had some extremely high quality minutes (8 points and 4 rebounds in 12 minutes of action).

so back to the subject at hand - where is Forthan likely to end up? where is she considering? i echo the other poster's comments about Nikki Caldwell - she never recruited really well at UCLA, left the team in shambles, and has yet to recruit well (or keep a top recruit now) at LSU.

I think that she lands at Texas. Travis Mays is back on the staff and he was apparently a big force in getting her to commit to LSU. But I'm not sure about UT's scholly limit at the moment.

interesting. i wouldn't be surprised to see her at Baylor - they did have a little success with another tall center...

I also thought Texas was at the limit but that hasn't stopped UNC.

It is being reported that she posted on her Facebook page that she is transferring to WVU.

Great pickup for them.

Apparently, Toledo is in a similar boat with 16 players on scholarship or committed for 15 spots.
