May non-UConn recruiting

I’m betting on Arizona as well, they lose both front court players after this year giving her a chance to step in and be an impact player and likely starter. Hard to tune down Stanford if accepted, but they will have Jones, Belibi, Prechtel, Brink, Demetre, Iriafen, and Betts. South Carolina would be my other prediction.
 
You guys may have seen the above but I just came across them. Sorry if they’re duplicates

Grace Vanslooten, a top-20 6-3 forward in 2022, is transferring to IMG Academy:

Has transferring to IMG ever worked out well for anyone on the girls side?

I believe Baylor had two players many years ago who transferred there, Alyssa Dry and Justis Szczepanski-Beavers, and I'm pretty sure Dry left the team and Szczepanski-Beavers was dismissed of transferred.

Guirantes spent some time at IMG, but I believe she ended her prep career elsewhere.

Boothe also played at IMG, and I think we all know how that turned out.

A couple of international players (two Africans in Rokia Doumbia and Aicha Coulibaly and a Romanian in Sarah Dumitrescu) have also gone power five out of IMG, but none have really had great collegiate careers.

On the flip side, Montverde, which is led by Special Jennings (a starter for Xavier when they had some really solid teams), has been attracting a lot of talent from all over, most recently Jordana Codio and Janiah Barker.

Was wondering the same thing. I know of a kid from Canada who went there only to come back after 3 years. It's a really expensive way to go from what I've seen.

You're not kidding when you say all over. Can't remember her name, but they have a player from Chile who competed at the U16 FIBA in 2019 and earned an all-star nod. Last I saw, the roster is very diverse with several international players. I'd be interested in seeing this team during the upcoming season.

Thanks. This is kind of what I thought and recalled. There has been D1 players that have come out of IMG but not many impact ones. The twin (?) sisters that played for Texas Caron-Goudreau also attended IMG academy.
 
If she were my kid and was accepted, she would go to Stanford.

I really hope she follows in her brother's footsteps, but I have some doubts. Adia usually tweets "Bear down" or "Today is a great day" when she receives the verbal to let fans know something is up. There's been no tweet so far. So, if it's Arizona, Nnaji isn't even telling Adia until she makes it public or Adia is not doing her usual thing.

Isn't the recruiting shutdown still in effect though? This would mean that if it is Arizona I don't think Nnaji and Adia can make contact with each other until tomorrow when it ends.

I forgot we were still in it. (Lose track of days sometimes.) You're probably right.

The recruiting shut down in in place until 31 May. The restriction is only on in person recruiting meaning that coaches cannot travel to see prospects and prospects cannot visit college campus. Coaches are still allowed to text and zoom with recruits until 1 June.

I believe they are referring to the recruiting shutdown from May 3-9 during which absolutely no contact is aloud -- digital or otherwise.

Yes things have picked up. Since Williams and McCorvey have been hired. A lot of offers going out.

Who hired the two previous assistants ?

Harper hired them. I think they were good hires at the time. She had just got the job, and looked to fill the staff. I think Williams track record speaks for itself.

Hindsight says they weren't very good hires.

Appears Sam Williams brought Louisville offer strategy to TN, offer early offer all. Let’s see if this method works for TN.

6'4" 2022 post Amauri Williams from North Little Rock commits to Vandy, which I think is Coach Ralph's first commit. Williams was all set for Vandy prior to the coaching change, but she didn't let the staff turnover change her mind.

Good for her, Vandy is a very good school academically which could have been a big reason for heading down there. Good for Coach Ralph

Looks like she’ll be about a top ~75 recruit.
