I would assume the new Auburn assitant was also recruiting her when she was an assistant at Kansas. She would play a lot at both schools. However I’m pleasantly surprised Mississippi State is a finalist with J Carter in the center spot.
 
Can't find anything confirming it, but on another site I see a claim that Keeli Burton-Oliver is transferring from Arizona St. to Washington St. Was a fairly highly thought of '20 recruit from the Seattle area. I believe she didn't play at all at ASU as a Fr.
 
Haven’t seen it on here, but read locally that Camryn Taylor, from Marquette, is transferring to UVA. 6’2” forward who averaged 12 points and 6.9 rebounds last year. Started all 26 games. Three years of eligibility left. Sounds like a good pick up for Tina. Anyone know anything about her?

If you saw a tweet from Raoul (wbb blog), I saw it as well. Not sure about her playing time at ASU either. Can't chalk it up to her being a freshman however, as Besselink got a lot of playing time this year and is part of the same recruiting class.

I thought maybe she was injured.

Found this from Jeff Metcalfe. Apparently she wasn't cleared when the season started. Not sure if she ever was.

Raee Burrell is scratching star surface. They do need a point guard. But they are not exactly lacking talent.

Jordan Walker may be their point for this year. Will actually benefit getting a full off-season compared to last year. Kellie can mold her

I think we are going to see big things from Jordan Horston this year. maybe not in the numbers but she matured a lot from freshman to sophomore year. She has really bought into Kelly Harper’s system and I think we will see that impact as Junior.

Wait, what? None of the stats (lower field goal percentage, lower 3 pt percentage, less rebounds per gam] nor the fact she started less games (percentage wise) and scored less points per game and was not in the game at crunch time has indicated she has not completely bought in. You are whistling past the grave yard.
Of most concerning is her shooting is simply abysmal at .350 overall and 3 pt is 28% which simply does not say “Star”...she’s far from her lofty #2 ranking she had. Add in her turnovers and passing decisions are still poor, I just don’t see it.

Im not saying I’m in the know.. but it’s believed she had a wrist injury.

No matter hard hard I would try, I could not have said it better. Also, someone mentioned a wrist injury. That should not impact her decision making, which left a lot to be desired.

I'm on the fence with Jordan H.. I think she can be a great player. I also think Tennessee has a lack of identity for her to succeed. And that's why her #2 ranking hasn't been shown.
She can turn it over. But I feel her passing is next level. But it comes with making bad decisions. Very good on ball defender.

Okay I'm typing all over the place. I really like Jordan style of play a lot. But she would have succeeded under an elite coach. Dawn, Geno, Kim, Tara, Jeff. Etc.

What I will say is Jordan is a pure athlete and has significant length. The previous USA basketball coaches were able to find a role for her but I just haven't seen any development in her game. Wrist injury or not, her 2 year so shooting are abysmal, not bad, ABYSMAL. Her freshman year, she was .394 overall in FG% and her 3 point FG was .300 AND her FT% was .593. At least last year her FT% jumped to .729 so that's something.

Again, she makes poor decisions be it passing or Shooting. How do you correct that especially at Tennessee where that has become ingrained in their nature even with a newer coach in upcoming year 3. Now, compare her to her other 2018 U18 USA teammates and it becomes MORE glaring....
Belibi, Boston, Brink, Brunelle, Bueckers, Cooke, Fudd, Haley Jones, Charisma Osborne, Celest Taylor, Van Lith.

Of that group, I would say Osborne and Taylor haven't truly blossomed yet but they seem to be improving and trending that way to being exceptional.

Is she really a PG or should she be playing 3/4? Wonder if she relinquishes most of her PG duties and tries to fill the void from Davis for this coming season.

Why is this is the transfer thread??
 
Looking at that U18 team, Jordan was a starter along with Boston, Bueckers, Haley Jones and Fudd. Horston played the 2nd most minutes after Azzi (pretty impressive a girt 2 grades behind most of the team not only started but led the team in minutes!).
I don’t know why Horston hasn’t developed or improved but even back she couldn’t shoot 3’s (26% on 4-15).
Who knows, but the talent is there so maybe this year it does come together for her but to say she can fill Rennia Davis’ shoes even partially is a bit of wishful thinking.

Maybe we'll see something different with the new coaching staff at Tennessee. She's a player in the SEC I'm curious to see what happens in her junior year.

She was a really nice fit on that team.

I think she's easily the most disappointing player in that class to me.
