I made a very long detailed post a couple of months ago detailing how poor of a job Holly has done developing talent at Tennessee.  I agree though, why on earth would any top 10 kid want to play for her when the player development and team results are nonexistent? For a coach who has regularly landed top 10 kids the last 5 years, the best pros she’s had are Harrison and Deshields (who only played for 2 years before quitting).

The only saving grace I have for Holly with Russel is that the 2013 class was filled with top 10 players who never developed into the stars they were expected to become.  8 of the 10 were Russell, Taya Reimer, Kaela Davis, Deshields, Linnae Harper, Jannah Tucker, Rebecca Greenwell and Oderah Chidom.  None of those players became stars in college.  More of that probably has to do with coaching though than player talent, but it was either a poorly scouted class since there were several standouts who were ranked lower (Nina Davis, Lexie Brown, Kelsey Plum, Lindsey Allen, among others), or the top 10 players picked schools where they didn’t reach their potential.
