November non-UConn recruiting thread

[southie]

2022 top-50 5-11 SG Carleigh Wenzel announces her top-6:

Another Texan with no Texas schools.

That's a strange combination of schools. She seems to be known for her shooting; doesn't seem like the type of guard that Arizona and Florida State typically recruit, so I'm surprised they are on her list.

Londynn Jones announced her top-10: Arizona, UCLA, UNC, Cal, Duke, Harvard, LSU, Louisville, Mississippi State, and Stanford.

Jillian Hollingshead has signed her NLI to play for Georgia.

BIG pickup for the Georgia Bulldogs!!! Keeping top talent in state is huge for Joni Taylor if she can keep it up. Most assumed this is where Hollingshead was going and I guess they got one right!! Congrats to the Bulldog fans.

Jillian Hollingshead has signed her NLI to play for Georgia.

Coach Taylor says, "At 6-foot-5 she's....someone her teammates look up to." Good one!!

Adding Hollingshead and M Davenport gives Georgia two versatile options in the paint. Great pickup.

Why should they? SC hasn’t exactly stayed out of other people’s states.

Because it's UNC and there is some historical hatred left amongst us older Gamecocks. Plus, their men's bb has raided the cherries from SC since we left the ACC.

Okay but isn’t Rivers from NC? Looks like it’s good for the gander.

It's pretty much a prerequisite for any coach who wants to reach and maintain nationally elite status to draw elite talent from beyond the state boundaries. I can't think of a single program that has been able to do so without it. Not in my memory, anyway. Maybe Jody Conradt and Kim Mulkey came the closest, drawing largely from in-state talent. But at least one of Conradt's starters on her undefeated team (and one of her all-time greats) Andrea Lloyd, hailed from Moscow, Idaho. Mulkey's first superstar at Baylor, Sophia Young, was "raided" from across the Sabine River.
