Money aside, I just don’t get the appeal for LSU. Seems like there’s always some sort of drama coming from the program every season.

I think South Carolina will be just fine without her.

Some of that is by design. More drama = more clicks = more $$$

I do agree that South Carolina will be fine without Lay, as she was not the best player on last year's team and has already been replaced by a better player. I'm not getting the fit with LSU, as they already have two guards who are better than she is.

LSU has the most toxic locker room environment in the country. Lay will be in the portal next season again. Don’t be shocked if Williams does as well
 
If she couldn’t get along with Dawn… just wait till Mulkey is in her face… unless the NIL money means more to her and her family..

Aren’t they still an option for Serah Williams? What’s the roster count now?
Expand ...
By my count they have 11 scholarship players, so still 4 available spots to fill:

Sr:
Flaujae Johnson, SG
Kailyn Gilbert, SG
Amina Joyner, PF
Izzy Besselman, SG (walk on)

Jr:
Milaysia Fulwiley, SG
Mikaylah Williams, SG

So:
Kate Koval, C
Jada Richard, G (not sure if PG or SG)

Fr:
Divine Bourrage, SG
ZaKiyah Johnson, SF
Grace Knox, PF
Bella Hines, SG


One of the more imbalanced rosters I've ever seen with possibly 8 of the 12 players being SGs, no PG on the roster and little depth in the post. If Williams joins she'd make them a true Final Four threat.

A side note though--I can't imagine all 3 of Johnson, Bourrage and Hines stick more than this season with Fulwiley/Williams ahead of them for the next 2 years. Realistically all 3 will have a difficult time carving out a rotation spot with 4 really good wings on the roster in front of them.
 
Reportedly, “done deal for more than a week.” Where are we now on the confidence meter of Goodman and Milkey?

One of the more imbalanced rosters I've ever seen with possibly 8 of the 11 players being SGs, no PG on the roster and just 1 center and 1 PF. Personnel wise there's a clear need for Serah Williams and she'd make them a true Final Four threat.
Expand ...
There's also Joyner from East Carolina coming who is also a PF.

J Richard played point last season and B Hines is often listed as a point or comboguard. However you are correct. If they add S Williams then that is a Final Four caliber team.

Looks like they both kinda dropped the ball here. I don't think this would happen on the men's side.

I'm still somewhat high on Milkey because it's apparent from the leak midweek that he knew something was in the works regarding Fulwiley and LSU (even if he didn't know the full extent of what was taking place).

This "revelation" post by Talia feels like an admission that she didn't have access to similar sources and was looking to say something about the issue after the fact.

At any rate, national attention needs to be redirected to the other players remaining in the portal who are ranked higher than MiLaysia. This saga with her is sucking the air out of the room, so to speak. Where are Serah and Gianna going? Unlike most, I have my doubts about Gianna to South Carolina, but I would love to be pleasantly surprised.

Just 4 in-transfers? Seems like more.

Also I saw a video from December of Mulkey giving Besselman a scholarship so looks like they've got 3 left.

I hope people (at least the South Carolina fans) are smart enough to not give her (Fulwiley) what she wants, which is attention. Wish her well, if you must, and move on.

I have no dog in this fight, but I hope she returns to Columbia next season and drops 50 on yalls head.

As long as her team loses by 50, I'm all for it! Because if she's scoring 50, she's probably also giving up 50 to her opponent (who happens to be Ta'Niya).

Gonna be a little difficult for a 25% 3-point shooter to drop 50 in a college true road game, but stranger things have happened.

Isn't next season the cycle where we break LSU's home winning streak? I think that happens in even years.

People are so dramatic lol

I get Mulkey isn't everyones cup of tea and she is definitely very polarizing and not for everyone, but I seem to see posts like this anytime anyone goes to LSU. Its not that deep.


I'm not sure how Fulwiley really fits into LSUs plans but I guess It never hurts to have talent. Jada Richard and incoming recruit Divine Bourrage are their true 'pg's) unless they make Lay or Williams the focal ball handlers. Williams is certainly gifted enough to do it but ideally I imagine they would prefer her at the off guard spot.

Mulkey has had success with combo guards running the point until the last two years so we will see how it goes again if that happens again.

BYers may know ASU signee Amaya Williams from Central Connecticut State. Not sure why the link says freshman as it appears she's a transfer.

I think she has made a mistake here. This is not the situation I envisioned when I was championing for her to leave South Carolina. This is a usage lateral move imo. I wish her luck though.

And one thing is for sure. LSU versus South Carolina will be box office next season.

These two are always box office.

Someday I would be curious to hear about what it’s like to be a coach at one of these places picking up 6 or 7 players regularly.

When you have a big frosh class, at least those players are ones that you’ve known for years so you already have a personal relationship, not to mention you’ve had a lot of time to think about how the player fits in to your style of play. And the recruits may have already interacted with each other.

This is a completely different animal. The players do have college experience so there’s less getting them up to speed but still you’re pulling together 7 transfers, a few HS recruits, and a few returners and trying to meld them together. Not even pro teams have that kind of turnover.
Expand ...
Not always the case, but it seems like often the transfers are picking schools that were among their finalists coming out of high school. Just because they're transfers doesn't mean they don't have (long) existing relationships with the coaching staff. And often the recruits/players know each other well, too (take Raven Johnson publicly recruiting her former HS teammate Latson, for example).

Maybe it’s because I don’t read or follow up on every news article, but I just can’t understand why there is so much dislike, distaste, or hatred, for this kid. Again, I’m an outsider looking in. Also, are the kids who transferred into SCAR this year, seeking attention?
