2026 Transfer portal

Didn’t get a lot of minutes, but will be a pretty good pickup. She was very instrumental in the Terps huge come from behind win at Minnesota.

She averaged 22.4 mins per game. I think she knows with people coming back from injury, those minutes would diminish.

These portal announcements are coming fast and furious now!

A South Bend native? Hmm 🤔

No. That's Not Happening.
The Reynolds father coached all three of his girls at Washington HS (home of Skylar Diggins and Jacqui Batteast) and there was never any serious interest between the sisters and ND and there are plenty of inferences that it was about the father who tried to package the two older daughters to Maryland and then Purdue.

He then had them...and the youngest and best -- got to UT Arlington. Guess what? He "joined" them, as assistant coach. After an 11-21 season, Kira is out the door. Hopefully, she'll go solo...otherwise, buyer beware.

ND will pursue help in the paint elsewhere unless there's been some very serious conversions done....

I personally would like to see Nunu have more opportunities to play as a Wing or Shooting Forward, because it's the only way she'll stick to a W roster as a pro. Unfortunately we went from having too much size (the year we had Brink, Kiki, and Lauren Betts), to none at all when one graduated and the other two transferred, and Nunu ending up having to play our 5 a LOT. She's got great instincts and muscle but she's GENEROUSLY 6'2" and doesn't have huge wingspan, but she's quick and a good shooter and I think would benefit from not having to be a team's first option in the paint.

And needless to say, obviously disappointing to see her go since she was part of our junior core. But she is getting her degree and I can't blame her for wanting to go someplace where she's playing for championships (even if conference) than praying even to get into the tournament at all..

BTW: Mary Ashley Stevenson has also entered the portal from Stanford, which is much more surprising to me:

Mary Ashley Stevenson played well as a frosh at Purdue. I was not surprised to see her transfer to The Farm because she went to an exceptional private high school in Manhattan. However, things didn't seem to work out for her on the court and her minutes seemed to be diminishing.

The Ivies do accept transfers. I wonder if she might go back east -- even to Manhattan -- to play for the WBIT champion Columbia Lions.

This thread is going to stress me TF out over the next few days!

Amen 😉 And I'm trying to keep a list of potentials for the Irish over on The Bench (ugh!)

To quote John Mayer, why, Georgia, whyyyy?

Is Georgia the SEC version of Iowa State? (I say this fully recognizing Stanford is on the Brink of becoming the ACC version of Iowa State...)
