Whether she ends up at Illinois or elsewhere, I think Divine Bourrage is a terrific name for a basketball player: "She unleashed a divine bourrage in the fourth quarter, drilling three straight threes and swatting two shots to turn the game on its head."

Wherever she ends up, I wish her well.

Really good fit IMO. She should get plenty of playing time and has star potential to pair with Cereah Parchment and Berry Wallace.

Shauna Green has done good things at Illinois, they had one disappointing season since she got there but otherwise have exceeded expectations two or three times.

Funny that TCU and their coach were busy that weekend with their own Sweet 16 (and further to the E8) in another state.

But don’t let the facts get in the way of a good conspiracy story.

I’ve been thinking about the X post @Iluvacc2 shared and @visitingcock’s response, and I’m realizing I may not fully understand the transfer portal rules. Maybe someone here can clarify.

My understanding is that, for a standard transfer — not a grad transfer or a coaching-change situation — no one acting on behalf of a new school (coach, booster, collective, etc.) is supposed to have contact with a player or her representatives about transferring until the player is officially in the portal. Is that right?

If so, then in theory, no one at Ole Miss could have been in contact with Talaysia Cooper or her representatives before Monday, yet she was committed there by Wednesday morning. And with Lara Somfai, same basic question: no contact with TCU until Monday, then committed by Wednesday?

Maybe I’m missing an exception, but if I’m understanding the rule correctly, it seems hard to believe it isn’t being broken in at least some cases. Unless, in some situations, the player already knows what she wants financially and is willing to commit quickly to the first school that meets it.

Am I off base here?

TCU’s recent history shows that it is an excellent program for players to transfer to both resurrect their college careers and play in the elite 8. It would not surprise me if mark Campbell is the. First and early contact for many players wanting to transfer.

Monday contact and WEDNESDAY offer and. Acceptance would be unsurprising to me especially for a player who enters the portal with a “do not contact” - indicating that she has a strong idea of where she wants to end up

Also wondering if players are less concerned with the campus, surrounding area, etc, and more focused on what will NIL bring now, and what it will create for them later?
