Laila Phelia, # 5 with Texas as a senior guard, reportedly played 8 games
at Texas (after three stellar years at Michigan). I read that she is
requesting a Red-Shirt year due to a need for a second eye surgery
for the "detached retina" in her eye sustained last summer (non
basketball related). She has also been wearing a knee brace on
her Left Leg. At Michigan her stats were something like 16.8 ppg
and 3.6 rebounds per game with 22 starts and she was also Michigan's
second leading scorer. At Texas her stats were 6.1 ppg
with 19.4 minutes per game. My guess is her transfer possibilities
will be determined by how the future H.C. views her health issues.
Being as talented as she was (at Michigan) many teams should
be giving her a close look. (IMHO).

Ugh....a second surgery. That has to be frustrating.

I like Fulwiley and LSU. I just don't get the two together. For sure she would start. But I think of her as a 2 guard. All they have are scoring guards. Isn't this a Hailey Van Lith situation all over. Id understand Notre Dame, TCU or even Oklahoma over LSU. But I'm talking strictly basketball fit, not brand or nil.

Agreed. LSU already has 2 shooting guards better than Fulwiley in Flaujae Johnson and Mikaylah Williams. Fulwiley doesn’t have the skill set or IQ right now to be a PG. I could see Kim trying Williams at PG and I’m sure she’d gladly take a talent like Milaysia but I don’t see this as a good basketball fit.

Plus if Fulwiley wants more freedom than she had at SC, LSU isn’t the right school for her. Kim isn’t afraid to bench anyone if she doesn’t like what she sees.

I find Fulwiley oddly likable. I say oddly because normally I do not care for flashy players, But, with her, while she has flashy skills, she doesn't jump around and scream and holler like she discovered the cure for the double dribble every time she makes a play. Seems like a sweet kid.

Let's see how much you like her with the reigns taken off at LSU. You know Kim likes all that stuff - Dawn has some limits. LOL

Has potential in a small ball scheme or even have one of those guards play small forward/wing. Can’t blame LSU for shooting their shot and figuring out the rest later.

I could see her working with M Fulwiley as a lead guard similar to A Morris. I looked back at her stats over the years and A Morris was a completely different player under Coach Mulkey. Her stats bear it out. Coach Mulkey and Coach Staley are both excellent coaches capable of working with similarly strong personalities and doing what is best for the team. As you stated, she will work within Coach Mulkey’s system or she will sit.

Mulkey has not improved a single player development wise since Baylor outside of Morris everyone she has brought in has stayed the same or gotten worse during her tenure at LSU. There is a reason why everyone is transferring. It’s a sinking ship

She will waste Fulwiley and Koval… watch

I don't like Fulwiley and LSU because of her defensive shortcomings. Her inability to play consistently good defense is why her minutes were limited at SC, and also why they will be limited at LSU. Both Staley and Mulkey demand good defense to get playing time: I have no idea why she thinks it will be different at LSU.

HerHoopStars has M.F’s per 40 win shares ahead of Williams. M.F is slightly behind offensively and much better defensively.

It's conceivable she'd actually rather return to USC, but since she can't, there's not a lot of other obvious good cultural fits that are top contenders, and if her mom is pressing her for NIL $$, L$U is almost surely the most obvious landing pad. She's 20 years old and the portal opacity would be confounding even for those with an advanced degree in negotiations, so it's not surprising to me the decisionmaking calculus has been less than optimal.
 
I swear I saw a post this morning that said Qadence to Virginia Tech, but I have not been able to find it since. I do believe that she visited there last weekend.

Regarding Serah Williams, ESPN has her going #8 in next year's draft, regardless of where she plays this coming season.

If she chooses UConn, she'll be drafted number #5.5.............;)

Let me put it this way. A recent 3x ACC POY, in multiple seasons at her university, didn't approach what Vanderbilt is paying ADR for ONE season. They'd better get All-SEC level production for her for THAT.

If Vanderbilt was serious about contending in the SEC, there were far more sensible options at that price. That's a panic purchase.

Your response tells me nothing.
Who is the 3x ACC POY, and how much $ did she get ? (as far as I know, Alana Beard was the only 3x ACC POY winner)
3x zero is still zero.
So, out with it. How much did Vandy.pay for ADR ?
