So top transfers in the portal right now:
Endiya Rogers
Ashley Owusu
Tehina Pao Pao
Kiki Jefferson
Lexi Donarski
Sedona Prince
Shayeanne Day-Wilson

Any other big names I'm missing?

All depends on needs. However some others referenced are:
K Fauntleroy
J Walker
A Micheaux
T Mair

Combining @bballnut90 and @militarydog input, I completely agree that beauty is in the eye (and needs) of the beholder. That said:

  • Agree that Alanna Micheaux of Minnesota should be a commodity
  • Camille Hobbie of NC State
  • Isnelle Natabou of Sacramento State
  • Lauren Ware of Arizona State

Height and help in the paint is sought by oh-so-many teams.

She is a Senior this year, so she is eligible to xfer as a Grad Student...so no waiver will be needed. Oops.

Assuming she has enough credits from 3 years at Maryland and 1 year at Virginia Tech to earn her undergraduate degree in her chosen major.

Well, it's been a steady decline since Ionescu moved on. If you think back to Ionescu's recruitment, she wasn't even originally considering Oregon (and seemed to be destined to land at Berkeley) until after her twin brother was offered a preferred walk-on spot with the men's hoops team. He didn't even end up enrolling at Oregon after all was said and done.

Is this a documented truth, that Cal was the leader always?

I read on the Cal Bears forum they felt Cal was the favorite her sophomore year but after that they bumped down the list. Outside that forum posting I don't see anything really pushing her to Cal. I believe Mark Campbell was instrumental in the recruitment of Sabrina from when he was at Oregon State. He was hired by Oregon in 2014 and became Associate Head Coach in 2015. I know Eddy said he was offered the preferred walk-on spot in August 2015, but I can't imagine her recruiting relationship with Mark Campbell from when she in like 6th grade, didn't have more sway. I don't see any articles about Sabrina's college choices or recruitment from before October 2015 where she was considering Texas, Cal, Oregon, and Oregon State. She later dropped Texas because she didn't think their relationship was where it was supposed to be at that time. Called them and left a message and never heard back from the coaches at the time. Later, like the 11th hour of her recruitment, it was between Oregon and Washington last minute. And I feel like I remember reading around here that Washington showed up as a dark horse late, like late late, because her Cal Stars coach Kelly Sopak was being considered for an Assistants job. When she committed to the Ducks in June 2016 she acknowledged that her brother would NOT be attending OU and would be going the JC route first. Which, he was at JC in San Fran, so Cal would have been pretty close They did end up being roommates in 2019 or something but I don't think she went to Oregon because of her brother's recruitment.

But I remember when Taylor Mikesell transferred she was pretty tight-lipped and seemingly maintained a pretty good relationship with her teammates but her dad on twitter was eluding to some things not being great in Oregon. Of course, parents of players will have different opinions and emotions attached to their child but I thought that was interesting.

I think it's worth noting that two of Arizona's Assistant Coaches (not Salvo Coppa) are no longer listed on their site and job listings for their positions have been posted. So, it'll be a big offseason of change in Tuscon.

Yeah it’s a “no” for me regarding S Prince.

So, did UConn “dodge a bullet” where Sedona Prince is concerned? If memory serves me right, I remember her considering the Huskies after/during the breakup with her and Texas. She did eventually sign with Oregon, so I’m just saddened to see her in the portal again. Hoping that she and all the others find a new home that allows them to finish their college years happily.

Could be an emperor has no clothes situation for Barnes.
 
Endiya Rogers is an absolute gamer. Wherever she lands, she will be a starter. I've watched Endiya for 4 years since she began at USC. Was always the best guard on her team each year. To me, it is her competitiveness & complete game that separates her from all other PAC-12 guards. An absolute gamer.

I think yes they dodged a bullet. She has unique skills and size but didn't like battling in the post despite being 6-7 and never rebounded well. Of the court she's had loads of drama with her being a social media influencer, and I don't think Geno would've put up with it.

Ole Miss or South Carolina for Morrow?

Ole Miss was one of the few Power 5 schools that seemed to prioritize her the first time around.

The Tennessee board had her in orange a month ago.

IIRC Rutgers was in her final 3. However that was with CVS as coach, but I’d love her there lol.

I would love to see her at SC! :D Would be a perfect fit.
 
Thoughts on fit for Morrow? Notre Dame the favorite in the clubhouse? Michigan? Louisville? Virginia Tech? Ole Miss? Tennessee?

NC State?

Uconn apparently had some interest, but I don't know how strong it was. Seems like she was a little lower ranked than they usually go after, and probably wouldn't be an upgrade over Ice or Jana.

Agreed she and Edwards pretty much play the same position

If Uconn was interested it would be to play Edwards at C and not start a true 5, and maybe be the PF starter after Edwards graduates.

I would still take her. Her defense and rebounding along with Aaliyah’s would be near unstoppable.

However, I can’t see her coming to UConn. I think Dawn may be all over her, Jeff Walz and Niele Ivey as well.

Morrow is going somewhere where the coach makes it all about her. That’s how she plays and thats how she’ll continue to play.

If that's the case, then why leave DePaul? She had the green light to shoot whenever she wanted.

Dawn will not be on her if that's the case. I on't see Morrow going to a place where she'll get about 25-30 minutes per game.
