What about Harper? You have to want that girl! She rebounds SO well at that guard position!

Sure she would be a bonus. With this years class and Tucker already in. If all three come than next years team will be set.

There's no one like Griner, tho (IMHO) unless they are 6'7" and athletic like she is with a great handle and a soft touch with the ball. So at 6'5", Russell is nothing like Griner (any more than Stewart at 6'4" is like Griner)...

But I get your point. there are players rated #1 or 2 in classes who are like Taurasi, Augustus, Moore, EDD, Griner, KML, Williams, Stewart, etc... and there are #1 or #2 players who are like Sykes, Strother, Bjorkland, Robinson, Bone, etc...

I am very intrigued by McCowan from the class of 2015. From what I've read she is the closet thing to BG physically that is coming along. At 6-7 she appears to have a college-ready body and is a very good athlete. She has apparently been very impressive with great upside.

KML had a very nice freshman year but I am not sure that I can yet put her into the category of those other players. I will need to see a little more from her the next couple of years. She may very well be UCONN's third best player this season, which is a SCARY thought.

McGowan is an intriguing 2015 prospect!

I also believe that #1 Steph,#2 Mo,and #4 Morgan ar going to fit into that ist category! I also have no doubt that#1
KML is going to be in that category! in her FR year she led the team in scoring and you can see her total game improving! If not for Williams she would have been National FR of the year!

Alabama rolling over the Vols on the football field will serve as a good prelude of things to come on the b-ball court for the LV recruits watching the game -- getting soundly defeated by elite competition; get use to it or else find another place to play...the choice is up to you!!
 
Here are my picks for the freshman splash category -Agee and Tuck!

KML had almost identical numbers to Williams last year, at least from a scoring perspective and she was often times the best player on the floor for UCONN (and she came off the bench). She and Williams are the two best players in their class by a pretty wide margin.

In my post I was referring to the #1 or #2 ranked players who were fantastic/outstanding vs. the ones who were relative busts given their #1 or #2 ranking. I did put Strother in the 2nd category, She had terrific numbers while at UCONN, but she wasn't nearly the player Augustus was. Anyway that was my point. I was not saying that KML was in the same league as Parker, Moore, Charles, Taurasi, etc... Too early to tell if she will be that good.
 
Funny who you run into while visiting Knoxville....

Peyton Manning one of the best quarterbacks to ever play. A nice photo with the team.

After he retires from the NFL, how long before he runs for Governor in TN??

:)

He could win
 
Baylor gets a verbal from Breanna (Bre Bre) Hayden, sister of Kemetria (Nae Nae) Hayden. Hoopgurlz has her ranked at #82 but all who have seen her play indicate that she is lightyears ahead of Nae Nae at the same point in her career. Reported to but a much better offensive performer than Nae Nae. Getting a player from DFW Elite is never a bad thing. Here's hoping she recruits a few more DFW Elite teammates with her.

If he was only as good as his baby brother at championships.

Until Mercedes gets into college we won't know what her work ethic will be. However, based on her play with Team USA, I think she is more like Kelsey Bone then Elizabeth Williams. I didn't want to compare her to Griner due to her size and also Griner was a better talent coming out of High School then Mercedes is.

However, with that said, I wouldn't mind if she and the coaching staff were still considering each other.

I have the same opinion as you, I see her more of a Kelsey Bone

Is it true that the LVs just signed Dwight Howard, Chris Bosh, and LeBron James? :)

I always liked Peyton Manning who is a great player, but my Giants do have his younger brother who has one more championship then Peyton.

Mem'ries,
Light the corners of my mind
Misty orange-colored memories
Of the way we were

Scattered passes,
Of the points we left behind
Fouls we gave to the opponent
For the way we were

Can it be that the offense was so simple then?
Is it just enough to rebound every miss?
If we had the chance to shoot the ball again
Tell me, would we? Could we?

Mem'ries, may be beautiful and yet
Final fours are so hard remember
So long ago, we just simply forget
So it's the winning
We will try to remember
Whenever we remember...
The way we were...
The way we were...
