New school commitments by Transfers - 2025

Not open for further replies.
Lately? Lately! Brenda basically invented the transfer portal. With the possible exception of Walz at Louisville, I can't think of anyone with more (mostly productive) inbound and outbound transfer activity than the Terps.
I think she started by churning her assistants first, enjoyed that so much she started churning her players, and the portal just increased the rate of churn..
 
Culturally, seems like a weird fit, but there are few in this business who are better at coaching bigs than Mulkey, though it does seem like Mulkey's pushed the pace in transition more at LSU than she did at Baylor, and Koval always seemed a little bit slow down the floor.
She's doing a great job with Del Rosario. After two years, she still can't afford to put her on the floor before mop up time. Looks like Mulkey's going back to Baylorball. At least it will keep Williams fresh.

Did she push one of her existing bigs into the portal with this? Maybe not since Koval has several years of eligibility left.

Mulkey will waste her and she will be ADR 2.0

Not a big addition
lol, the player who led her to team to an unexpected NC and was probably the biggest rookie after CC in the W this year
Yeah what a waste she was.
 
It's interesting: at some (early) point, Freese seems to have understood churn was going to be a constant and dealt with it. '
A look at the coaching depth charts shows two coaches with listed responsibilities for recruiting (coordinator and director) and her top assistant, Karen Blair, was well versed in recruiting when coming to the Terps as well. They seemingly research, target and move incisively.
Interesting that a few hours after posting this, I saw that said Karen Blair was named GT's new Head Coach.
Of course, she may (or may not have) helped the Terps get two new transfers. And the beat goes on...:cool:

Koval seems like an interesting pick up to me. Seems in a similar build of a player they already have in Del Rosario, slower big body post played. Maybe more skilled I assume?
ADR is in the portal. To be honest I think they're similar players, but I do think Kate just needs to relax out there and the layups will start dropping. Having a year under her belt could help quite a bite, though I thought the same for ADR entering this season.

Koval has alot more skill than ADR.

ADR imo was vastly overrated coming out of HS and was more of a project. She also couldn't stay healthy during the last two off-seasons so her development suffered for it.

Was thinking about this because the same could be said about other team mates from that Webb School 2023 class.

Velez (sic?) - LSU to Syracuse
Bostock - Maryland to Houston
Robinson - Michigan State to James Madison
Del Rosario - LSU to TBD

Regarding Bostock and Robinson, personally I think their AAU coach had them aiming too high. Never been a fan of how he manages his recruits.

Ohhhhh. A guard originally out of Cheyenne, WY. Interesting, didn't know she was having that good of a season at Denver
ASU had a GREAT guard - Robbi Ryan from Sheridan Wy. She was a 1000 scorer and all Pac 12 her senior year and is playing in Europe.

Idk Rosario simply was not very good but it also didnt help that she was always injured and couldn't train tbh. The writing seemed clear on the way early on this season with that one. When I watched Rosario miss 3 point blank layups in a row then give up a layup for not running back to Texas in the SECT I knew she was out of there lol.

Seems like a great kid who was simply massively over hyped out of HS just being 6'6. She isn't the only big that comes to my mind recently with a similar back story

I really do like Miles. Idk if it's cool to speculate or even ask the question of how much money played a factor. I also wonder for a player like her who committed to ND before nil, if she had been able to benefit as much from nil over the past 3 seasons. I really don't know how it works, but would ND ever have upped her nil money, or similar to like the working world, where sometimes u really do have to switch companies to make more money. So Olivia Miles, and Clara Silva, pretty good portal season for TCU thus far. And I do think Nikki Collen and Baylor have to be a little weary. Another in state rival.

IDK if it's true, but I read whatever they were offering Chavez. I also read Watson is signing up with TCU
