"I will always be grateful to Holly and everyone at Rocky Top for welcoming me and I hope they'll understand my reasons for putting my family first." It wasn't just any door that opened either. The Gamecocks are the defending national champions. The opening on their staff also was a good fit for Law. McCray-Penson was their staff's top recruiter. Recruiting is one of Law's strengths, as evidenced by UT signing the nation's top-ranked class last fall. "It was an opportunity she felt she couldn't pass up," Warlick said in the statement, "and I certainly understand that desire and wish her the very best at South Carolina."

The July recruiting period is looming. Tennessee has two commitments - guard Jazmine Massengill and forward Amira Collins - for its 2018 signing class. Guard Izabela Nicoletti Leite informed the Lady Vols earlier this week, before Law's decision, that she was committing to Florida State. She made a campus visit earlier this month. [/QUOTE]
