Im a little mixed on this one. Conner, Hailey Van Lith, Prince are really good, but Prince has to stay healthy. I like some of the other pieces on their team as well (uma j and AEN from Stanford,). I know there coach is huge into pick and roll and ball screen actions which will probably be good for her to know and learn. I know they are more of an offensive team so I think that will be beneficial. I also think tcu is a bit less n the mainstream, so I guess there will be a bit less attention on her. I liked the idea of Stanford or Duke

I'm a huge fan of TCU's coach, Mark Campbell. I feel like he was the person most responsible for Oregon's two year burst of glory (not Graves). He did well in each of his brief spots as a head coach before arriving at TCU and making them relatively competitive in his first year despite not having enough players to even play several games.

I think Campbell will recruit decently and slowly build them into one of the best in the conference. Wouldn't shock me if the gets Jazzy out of this recruiting class, (Surprised? yes. Shocked? No.)

Not trying to veer, however at this point, Hailey Van Lith needs to go someplace that's going to accentuate her skills, let her improve whatever she needs, in order to have a pro career.

Just a more sophisticated version of 1 and done.

Except that 1 and Dones are making millions with their rookie contracts, so their education credentials are less important.

She probably won’t even make the W.

Oh wow--a big big with some upside!

She picked the right conference, for sure. And if Penn State can continue shooting the ball well from three, they may not be as bad as people predict them to be in 2024-25.
 
This Skim Milkey character is nailing it, has recently called transfers in for Iowa, Ohio State, TCU, Colorado State, UNLV.

And Skim Milkey has "predictions" out for UConn and Tennessee. The one for UConn went up on April 13.

So would not be shocked to hear some good news in the next few days.

Isn't Campbell known to be the coach who helped develop Ionescu? I can see why she would go there if that's the case.

What is the history of transferring back to a previous school? I can't think of it happening ever--in any sport...

Yea...it's...something alright. I'll be so glad when this 5th year/Covid...and now unretirement thing dies. And of course, I smell money and social media all over this. Yes, they're "good" players, but this isn't like Floyd Mayweather coming out of retirement. lol

I think everyone is glad that the "Covid year" is done after this season. But as regards money / social media / transfers / "free agency" - you ain't seen nothin' yet.....

What are the reasons? And they literally are the past...not the future. If I'm a recruit, I'm asking why would I want to play here when you have to unretire players to fill a roster?
Expand ...
reason #1 The Cavinder twins represent NIL $$$ more than any other wbb players. They are literally the poster children for NIL. So don't be surprised if in the near future all of you good people on here accuse Miami of "buying" a championship. Think about it. It was done with the first Marlins Championship and having Messi on your soccer team doesn't hurt your chances in soccer now does it?

reason #2 I can't state on here publicly. I will only say that Coral Gables and Coconut Grove area is full of old money from families that support the "U" and especially the WBB team to an extent. It would be better for the university (in terms of donations/support) if the team was more reflective of the surrounding community. The Cavinders also fit that description.

So starting lineup
Maddie Scherr
Hailey Van Lith
Maddie Conners
Agnes Emma
Sedona Prince

I think that's 4 5th year. Maybe a 6th year. But I like the lineup

You should add Saylor Poffenbarger to the list ...

So Hailey Van Lith and Maddie Scherr are both going to TCU.
TCU ranks #9 in Big 12, must be good, or very good :)?

TCU will be very good next year. They were fairly good - at least promising - until bitten by the injury bug this year.

There are no guarantees of course, but that is what I am expecting. I don't root for them, and they will be an opponent for Arizona, but I was impressed by this year's projections before they crashed and burned.

Agreed.

ESPN has reported, in recent days, that a new Virginia state law allows those universities to provide NIL payments directly to players (no outside collectives necessary). Also, there's talk of a portal that never closes. We already see the effects of unlimited transferring.

The loss of a covid year, for most, means very little right now. Things are never going back to "normal".

Mostly agree, I do think that the loss of the Covid year will have an effect. As you say, it isn't going to change things, but the presence of a high number of 5 and 6 year players has unquestionably affected the talent pool and dynamics. The new normal will, I suppose, be interesting, but I for one will be glad to get out of the Covid carry-over.
