Non-UConn Recruiting Thread

[militarydog]

She just recieved her offer from Texas last week; assuming she had a relationship with our new coaching staff while they were at MSU; has never visited Texas. I'm thinking she she ends up at Kentucky.

Coach Schaefer and staff were recruiting her while at MSU. Why do you think she ends up at Kentucky?

Also, Coach Schaefer will normally narrow down to two recruits for each slot needed. For example, at point guard he was originally recruiting R Johnson, K McPherson, and R Harmon. R Johnson looks to be a South Carolina lean so he had the other two. If he offered B Hall then he feels pretty good about his relationship with her. She is the type of player that can swing between 3, 2, and even 4.

Mizzou picks up a commitment from Izzy Higginbottom, a 5-7 PG ranked #57 in 2021.

Well, Kentucky borders Ohio, so close to home. And, her twitter had a lot of Kentucky stuff (prior to picking up a Texas offer). Get the feeling she wants to play in the SEC based on several of her finalists. I don't get the feeling she'll stay in-state and play at OSU, but the home state school can never be counted out, especially during this pandemic.

What’s a cg?

What’s a cg?

Must be combo guard...that’s what I’m thinking.

 

[Zanzman]

Ok makes sense thanks

SC landed two commits (2021s or transfers) per Dawn’s tweets.

It’ll be interesting to see who. Maybe Raven Johnson?

I’m guessing Raven Johnson.

I will guess transfer Taylor Mikesell . . .

That would have been my transfer guess. I could definitely see that.

Yup, Mikesell. Destiny Henderson's days are numbered in Columbia.

Mikesell is definitely not a Staley-type PG. More of a 2/3 probably.

Hmmm, ok. That's your opinion. I stand by my original claim. The backcourt is also filling up in Columbia, I'd be surprised if all of them (not counting the 3rd stringers) end up staying.

Mikesell would have to sit out a year. She would replace the Gamecocks’ lone graduate Lele Grissett‘s spot. Dawn is pretty excited to have Destiny Littleton eligible.

 

[DeeHusky]

Mikesell is not a good fit in Columbia at all in my opinion

 

[TC22]

Henderson is the likely starter at point this year. Not sure why she would leave. Zia played point very little this year. Henny has been groomed for that spot.

Your claim isn’t even logical. SC only has 9 scholarship players next year and 4 are considered guards. Of those 4, two are upperclassmen. There is plenty of room and playing time hence two pickups. I doubt both are guards and they both might be class of 21’ anyway. Henderson is definitely a mainstay in Columbia. She will be a big staple for her team these next two years.

mikesell isn’t a natural PG. she is mostly an off guard. She ain’t playing PG at SC

 

[donalddoowop]

It's probably Mikesell and Fudd.

 

[SCspur]

I wouldn’t mind Mikesell at all. A 45% shooter is always welcomed.

 

[Gamecockfan77]

That makes no sense at all.

 

[SECbbfan24]

Fudd

Boneyard may shut down if this happens

 

[ConwayGmck]

It's somebody....that's for sure.

You don't have a clue. Henderson is the starting point guard.
