April Transfer thread

[southie]

I had to laugh that a Texas Tech transfer ends up at Syracuse due to the large number of outgoing transfers each has had recently . . .

We AIN"T playing on Wednesday in next year's ACC Tourney

Another “apart.” Both from future Duke players I believe.

 

[BobbyJ]

Not a good sign when the kid is already excited to be APART from the team.

As long as they can score, rebound, and defend... they could spell it awpot for all I care

What’s up with the stellar academic reputation at Duke? Or maybe they all do want to be separate from a sisterhood.... ???

Ah a fan of the UNC educational system for athletes, I see.

So what do folks think are the top 5 or 10 signings from a player skill matched with a gap a team needed to fill point of view?

Gosh, I'm certainly not going to attempt to name 5-10 because I will inevitably overlook someone important, but this is a good question. I'll throw out one name to get the ball rolling: Taylor Chavez to Arizona.

Also, teams that are building what is essentially an entirely new roster from the portal are relevant here, but that's almost an entirely different category!

I dont know about a top 5-10, but ones that stand out to me are:
1. Celeste Taylor and Imani Lewis to Duke
2. Diamond Johnson/Hayes to NC State
3. Taylor Chavez/Koi Love to Arizona
4. Hayes sisters to Mississippi State

Mulkey and Jordan Lewis are also big name transfers that have yet to find a home

As far as Endyia Rogers, i still haven't seen anything out on social media confirming that she has entered the transfer portal. But, she did remove "usc basketball" from her twitter page, but not her USC photos.

Finally found something out on social media stating Endyia entered the transfer portal; nothing from her directly, though.

Rickea Jackson ?

IImar’I Thomas to UCLA is one that stands out to me, she’s undersized but she should help with out with scoring and will likely starter at the four next season.

Rickea Jackson ?

Idk if I would consider her the team captain. Maybe Myah Taylor or Carter.

Dorka Juhasz to UConn. Need that scoring inside. I don’t think ONO has much more growing to do as far as potential and that’s not anything against her. I just don’t think #1 in her class at one point is as accurate as we thought. NaLyssa Smith, Elissa Cunane, Rhyne Howard, Queen Egbo, Rae Burrell, Ashley Joens, Destanni Henderson are all ranked below ONO and this way is off topic lol, but I just don’t think that’s accurate.

That would be a pretty big blow to lose Taylor. She was one of the few actual players who showed significant improvement.

don’t think it’s her but you never know

 

[Vowelguy]

Swin's cousin. Remember thinking she was pretty good at SMU. Didn't realize she had moved to Penn St. last year.

I liked the Emily Engstler signing by Louisville.

I’m pretty sure M Taylor has graduated. I could see her going to grad school at another school. However she is also big on her family being able to see her play. I’d hate to lose her.

 

[Iluvacc2]

Agree with Engstler to Syracuse, I think that is a great signing. She’s the tough forward they need. In the vein of Hines-Allen and Fuehring.

Agreed, especially with the Hayes girls arrival. I honestly think we will lose at least one guard before all is said and done once they get on campus plus our new PG from Tulane.

Taylor is from Olive Branch and I could see her winding up at Memphis with a new coach and a chance to be even closer to family.

 

[SimpleDawg]

I thought I heard one of our guys saying they expect 2 Centers to arrive to Starkville, so that sounds more evidence that it's Carter.

Logically I can't see why she'd want to stay given all her friends are gone and she's not gonna get any better here, or gonna win for what's left of her career. I also heard Vic is looking for a PF.

She's transferring two years in a row?
