Hailey Van Lith in the Portal

[SCspur]

I’m super shocked! She’s also listed as “do not contact”. Wonder where she’s headed?

Probably end up on the west coast, maybe a Wash U or WSU where they'll let her take all the shots she wants.

 

[UConnCat]

There was concern about this among some Louisville folks but I was skeptical. Wow.

 

[mbr33ct]

With Van Lith's fiery personality, Kim Mulkey just picked up a replacement for Morris.

 

[Darwin]

She is going West Coast most likely. Wow….it’s starting to get very interesting, Moorow, Betts and now Van Lith all in short order. Stay tuned, more to come.

Yesterday I mentioned on another thread that some other big names were going to announce….and there should be perhaps another big name according to sources

 

[Orangutan]

As heavily reliant on transfers as Louisville is, having their star player that they signed out of high school enter the portal is very, very funny to me.

That is like saying there could be some cloud cover soon. How can you go wrong?

The “portal” is more like a vacuum cleaner.

SoCal?(need a PG), Oregon? (Nike $), IU? (Replace Berger)

Walz is going to have his work cut out for him next year unless he can land a couple of major transfers this offseason.

So if you have a reliable source that tells you there are two top players going to the portal and one immediately does….should I question his veracity…….and is sunny in California….thanks I respect all opinions

Wow. This portal thing is spinning out of control. I feel for the coaches. They invest their time and energy (not to mention schools’ money) to go and watch the players, compete with other coaches to recruit them, train them and hope to build teams/programs with them for years, and wake up one morning and find out their hope/dream that they have worked so hard for is gone. The NIL deal is making the matter worse. The NCAA needs to do something about this.

 

[Kaizen]

I know she will not go to Iowa for sure ....

 

[JellyBean]

Lauren Betts and now Hailey Van Lith....

Mulkey is making a push for Hailey Van Lith

 

[Rowdy831]

Walz has been a person that embraced the Portal and now he is experiencing the other side of it. Hailey watched as Jeff played strangers over players that committed to him and eventually when you erode that loyalty you lose the loyalty you had too. In this case I think she will most likely end up back home so her parents can enjoy her last season as a college player.

The good news is he can go out and get all these Blue Chippers to replace her.

I really can’t see it. She seems too low key for lsu

From an “elder”, who is all of 30 years old

Hard to see that. I’m thinking IU…..replaces Berger at PG and all the other starters return.

I believe Hailey Van Lith is signed with ADIDAS.

Shocking given that she appeared on the Sue Bird and Diana Taurasi show during the championship game and they all praised Jeff Walz to high heaven. Not a contrary word was said by any of the three.

 

[CONNCAN]

In my opinion, NO DOUBT, Hailey Van Lith is headed off to play for Kim Mulkey and LSU (Oregon is a "Sinking Ship" with everyone bailing out of the program, so I can't see her going there).

Dunno. Lauren Betts is now following the Oregon coach and program

 

[PacoSwede]

as i recall, in high school Hailey Van Lith was hoping to be a uconn husky ... paige dashed that possibility, of course.

is she now getting a second shot?

no, no, no. uconn MUST get another 'big' and hailey assuredly ain't one!

 

[bballnut90]

Apparently she's "do not contact" which indicates she knows where she's going. Guessing we'll find out sooner than later.
