Good for Saylor. The timing didn't work out for being a Huskies player, but she's a nice young woman and obviously a talent. I'm glad she's found a home, and hope she's happy there.
 
She had a reputation as a good shooter coming out of high school but she struggles to make shots. Not sure why that is. Maybe it'll get better w/ experience. Good rebounder.

36% FG and 23% 3FG.
 
Her mom went to Mizzou, not Arkansas. That's what she means by "here" -- Mizzou's gym.

Her portal choice was probably a function of a) having been recruited pretty heavily by Arkansas, and b) her family's very close relationship with Hog assistant Lacey Goldwire. (I think Lacey is Saylor's mom's god-daughter? It's something like that.) Plus I think her style of play is a great fit for Arkansas's offense.

Wasn't another reason she chose the Razorbacks is because one of their players was from Frederick MD and they were friends?
(Middletown is a suburb of Frederick.)
 
I don't think that having Makayla Daniels on the team hurt, of course, but ... Daniels was committed and on the team when Saylor chose UConn in the first place. (And Goldwire was an Arkansas assistant for part of that time, too.)

To be fair, though, at that point, Neighbors was only in his first or second year at Arkansas and had very little to sell a high school player of Poffenbarger's quality, other than a vision.
 
I think the Saylor to Arkansas was great fit. I just saw where she won her 4th SEC Freshmen of the Week Award. She dropped 16/8 on Florida and followed that up with 24/6 on Missouri. Plus, she is being asked to defend the other team's best player and doing a decent job. Her rebounding is off the charts! Going to Arkansas was a great fit for Saylor. I am happy for her.
