Gamecocks 2022, Part II

[GCKSFN4L]

Theoretically, but she'll get drafted as soon as she's eligible.

I figured 3 is more likely. Don't think we keep her for four years.

Well yes I figured we wouldn't keep her for the full 4 years, but I just wanted clarification about her eligibility. I would assume we would have her for at least 2 years but I hope she will stay for a 3rd year. Losing the 2019 class+Cardoso all in one go would be a huge loss of talent to replenish.

Watkins coming out with her top 4 destroys my theory that she was the commit Coach tweeted about this summer.

Well, all three of our 2022 prospects of interest released lists after Dawn's tweet so maybe it was Fulwiley, Emma Risch or some other '23 prospect.

Stack or Groot also possible I guess. Or someone that has put up a list since isn't out of question just unusual.

Does Mary Ashley have an offer from Dawn???

I don't think Cardoso is a sure fire player to stick in the WNBA yet. Has some weaknesses defensively that can be taken advantage of and some conditioning issues. She can rebound well though and has a nice touch to finish inside.

it Could be anybody really. There’s gotta be a reason the birdie hasn’t been revealed. Maybe they just wanted their moment. Sooner or later it will make sense - I just hope it’s sooner.

She's not eligible for the WNBA for another two years, I believe by then she would definitely be ready and a first round pick, but for my own selfish reasons I hope she stays for 3.

I do agree with you on your observations. Under Dawn Staley, I expect her conditioning and defensive skills to vastly improve, especially since she'll get to practice with the likes of Boston and Amihere everyday, the latter of which really took advantage of Cardoso's weaknesses in their Americup matchup.

It’s been so long that I completely forgot we had a commitment.

I do not know. Nothing public as far as I know.

Yes, but you can't teach 6'7" and Dawn will get her playing defense.

6-7 with a condor's wing span.

I have no doubt we will lead the NCAA in blocked shots again and over the next three years, Well, actually we led in total number of blocks but Syracuse tied us for blocked shots per game. Hmmmm, I wonder how they did that.

Mary Ashley Groot ? Not to my knowledge.

Do you have link to that?

I.m not finding it. She has an All-South offer list of us, NCState, Louisville and most of the Universities of (name a Southern state)

She's been relatively quiet on Twitter ever since this post and I believe Dawn made her birdie announcement a few days later, which is why some think she might be the commit.

I don't people understand how Dawn level of coaching can bring the best out a player.... I never expected Boston to be playing at a high level game 1. Because the McDonald's All American game, she looked like she needed work. Boom Dawn had her looking like a star game 1

If Tierra McCowan is in the WNBA-Cardoso is a WNBA albeit limited.

...but she is a 2023 commit unless she is reclassifying

She could easily be an early verbal commit for 2023 as well.

Yeah but she visited NC after the SCAR visit.

 

[JDuro]

I’ve come to believe the birdie was a very early silent commit from Arnold. Risch and Arnold visit and Dawn’s tweet were all on 6/26.

I don’t expect Risch to be a Gamecock. She will probably end up at one of the Oregon schools.
