2022 guard KK Bransford announces top-12

[DaBball]

Surprising to see no South Carolina.

I thought Dawn was all over this young lady.

 

[Alydar]

SCar has 3 guards coming in 21 including Nos 2&3.

It's kind of nice to see UNC and Duke back involved.

Can't stand around for the extravaganza. I assume UConn's there.

Just click on the little right arrow on the right edge and you will see the result w/o waiting for the show.

Duke

Duke

If not UConn, then Duke. Good choice.

I think Notre Dame and now maybe Duke will still be around when she whittles it down to 5. She indirectly mentioned Notre Dame in an interview when talking about playing in college and seems like a pretty smart student.

Thanks.

I respect what they have accomplished to get to this stage but seems arrogant for a high school soph to discuss who SHE is considering. When I see posts that note the 12-15 teams recruiting them, I normally exit the page.

She’s a junior, so this timeline is right on point.

The UConn Husky is on her immediate right. We're a lock!

Maya Nnaji. Amazing talent.

Or the Navy / White color scheme.

I would speculate that elite 2022 guards who are considering UConn are waiting on Fudd's decision.

Probably going to be Duke. I have a feeling Duke is going to make a lot of noise in Class of 2022 starting off with Kiki Rice.

Duke

I'm a fan of your optimism

Well guess I'll be having chicken wings and cupcakes to celebrate tonight.

That might be true if triad was not a Duke fan. He brings bad luck to them and any chance they have to get more than one elite recruit per class.

 

[TerpWomenFan]

Duke need to pick it up. Especially after UNC great 2021 class.

 

[SCGamecock]

We were.. then we picked up 3 guards in 2021 and I think the guard spot in Bransford's class for SC is going to Talaysia Cooper (who in my opinion is better than her ranking). But nothing is for certain in recruiting. With the NC schools trending upwards, Cooper could decide to jump the border (as elite SC hoopers used to do regularly).

Technically, if Bransford still wanted to come to SC she could.. we have up to 5 spots for the 2022 class, but KK I sense that she wants to go somewhere she can make an impact early and that's not at SC.

I still stand by my prediction that we take a guard and two forwards (1 pf and 1 true post) in the 2022 class.. but we'll see. Myself and a few other Gamecock posters were pretty spot on predicting the 2021 class fwiw, BEFORE they committed.

 

[bluedevil]

When she narrows it down to 1 please let me know...

Hell. You've feasted on that stuff since your new coach was announced.

Not a good look for Kevin McGuff when the top Ohio player doesn't even have OSU in their top 12.

With HW & JPM out of college coaching, Coach McGuff has assumed the dubious distinction of now being the WBB HC who does the least with the most talent. This is not lost on top in-state players like Bransford who look to go elsewhere or Kierston Bell who transferred out.

 

[TerpWomenFan]

You have to give McGuff credit for going to the championship game this past season in the Big 10. But he should do a better job with getting kids from Ohio. But it's not always easy. Maryland do not get a lot of kids from Maryland. They missed out on good players like Bella Alarie, Jackie Brown-Turner and Saylor Poffenberger. And i didn't even mention poor Virginia. Virginia rarely gets the top players in their state.

As long as they miss out on that 1 upcoming generational player ill be fine .

Unless "the player to be named later" has moved, she from Virginia. Arlington I believe.

I've seen Azzi listed from both Arlington and Falls Church. The Falls Church zip codes spill over considerably into Arlington County and Fairfax County, so it's possible her home is in Arlington. She's definitely in Virginia and not Maryland. Her school is in D.C., but not far from the Maryland border.

You overlooked Mir McLean....

Sort of not fair. Maryland has signed only one player from Connecticut. I know of three off the top of my head that UConn has signed from Maryland. Boykins, McLean and Poffenbarger.
