2025 Transfer Portal, part 2

[cancontent]

Iowa not done yet with trying to add to their roster.

It kind of makes sense. Brenda is like the anti-Blue Devil: recruit over your HS recruits, treat the portal as a revolving door, give your players the green light to make their own offense, make defense optional, and watch your players have 10x the professional success of your former rival down in Durham.

I think TDF is still upset over 2006.

Undoubtedly, he holds grudges for an infinite length of time.

Some of you may recall that Emely was a last-minute recruit at UConn.

What do you mean by “ recruit?” Offer? Vague interest? Visit?

 

[CalWBBfan]

Claudia Langarita is staying at Cal after all per FB post.

Geno offered Emely in late 2023. That was before Sarah Strong committed.

 

[Bone Dog]

I think whoever lands Emely Rodriguez will be very lucky. She is a substantial talent.

good point ... transfers were going so wild, I forgot about, you know, actual recruiting news

Hasn't this been a busy week for you? Not to mention, you're thinking of creating that thread about top college prospects and WNBA success. It happens

Some buzz today from non-Iowa insider that Emely may be leaning towards Hawkeyes.

 

[jdote33]

My bad I thought this was another U Washington commit that played with Avery Howell. I still think this is a 2025 4 star player though

 

[Stagnant]

Iyana Moore from Vandy seems to indicate on IG that she is considering Notre Dame, UCLA, Duke, and Texas as her potential landing spots.

Here I was about to treat you to Cheerwine and BIscuitville if you ever passed through NC... then I read that last part

I'll be upset about that until the day I die....or until DWBB wins its 1st national title About to go to bed salty over the thought.

Undoubtedly, he holds grudges for an infinite length of time.

Does 45 years count as infinite? Darn you Purdue. If I could put poxes on schools..... I definitely would to about 20 or so.

 

[triaddukefan]

One of the most random destinations for a Duke transfer that I can remember, figured she would end up back on the West Coast.
Trading Cheerwine, BBQ, Biscuitville, and cheap tobacco for flat terrain and and farm animals I wish her the best.

Wait wait wait. What part of that is not true, and other than the last line, what part is slanderous towards Duke? My point was that somehow Brenda seems to produce so many successful pro players even though her "system" is generally less successful than Kara's has been in recent seasons.

How many players have graduated from Maryland since 2020 and play in the W? $$$ talks and if you have it and recruit other teams' players 365 days a year, you can get good players. You can also lose them when you pay a current player significantly less than a new one and they find out. Not sure how much development happens at Maryland.....

Coach Friese has said in previous interviews that Maryland didn't have much in the way of NIL until this past season. Not sure whether money really talked until this past season based on that statement.

And, based on the photos in her story, she has already made visits to all 4 schools.

Yet they've only signed two transfers this offseason. Two good ones though.

Interesting. But was it truly NIL or Maryland's reputation after bouncing back from the previous season? Rhetorical question as we'll never really know.

TDF knows the above statement is true. But seeing it spelt out like this causes him more pain. But I have no doubt that he’ll recover from the disappointment, regardless of how long it takes.
