That a major blow to VPI :( I was talking with a Tech fan at the tournament... and he was lamenting the concept of the transfer portal ..... Im sure he was referring to it mostly for football.... but Im sure he isn't happy about it right now for WCBB

Mi’cole Cayton has a top 6 of Rutgers, Utah, Oregon State, TCU, Nebraska, and Oklahoma.

Interesting that she has Nebraska in her top 6 when that was her original destination before Yori resigned.

She started a lot of games as a freshman, was honorable mention Pac-12 all-freshman team, but has played four games in the last two seasons. Has a rep as a defensive player but she's not a great shooter. OSU could really use a good one-on-one defender - we haven't had a great one since Gabby Hansen.

Keyen Green to TN. Grad transfer from Liberty. 6'1" forward. Former Big South player of the year.

Nice pick up for coach Harper. She will be busy this offseason trying to improve the current roster with what the portal has to offer.

Trading one Green for another.

Interesting that this article says she was also recruited by Maryland, Kentucky and Texas. No mention of Notre Dame, although Muffet reportedly had her as a "prime target" according to an article from a couple weeks ago.

Wasn't the point by Austin is she doesn’t want to be a traditional post like Brenda wanted her to be but prefers to be a wing or small forward type?

Paired with Boston she'll probably play more in the high post or take turns flashing out high since Boston has a good face up game. I don't think she specified that she wanted to be a wing/SF, but that she wanted to develop more of a perimeter game rather than be a center.

She is certainly battle tested by having played in the rugged Big South.
:rolleyes:

against Oregon State last year: 4 points on 1-7 FG, 7 rebounds, fouled out in 21 minutes of play.

Okay, so she may be battle tested but she's failed the test :p

File this one under "What a Long Strange Trip It's Been."

The top two recruits affected by the Connie Yori "resignation" at Nebraska were Kathleen Doyle, who ended up going to Iowa and becoming the B1G Player of the Year in 2019-20 and Mi'Cole Cayton, who went to California and found injury upon injury. Now as a grad transfer, she's back in the nation's heartland. Grad transfer at Nebraska.

Sometimes, you can't make this up. Best of luck to her and Amy Williams for keep on, keepin' on. ;)

Arizona losing Birna Benonysdottir, a little used center, played a total of like 44 minutes. Said to be a project by someone early on (at least as it related to NCAA hoops, she was on the Icelandic JR Nat Team), I think it possible she might thrive in the right place, which is probably not a P5 school.

"I think with this generation, I think kids don’t want to sit and have patience and work and wait,” Arizona coach Adia Barnes said Tuesday, not referring to Benonysdottir specifically. “And I think that’s why you’re seeing 500 kids (in the portal) and there’s nothing wrong with that. If your objective is to play and you go down to a level where you can do that, I don’t think it’s a bad thing. I think it’s a good thing.”

The quote is from the article on Arizona Desert Swarm.
