October non-UConn recruiting thread

[HuskyNan]

Have at it

 

[DaBball]

Potentially a huge addition for DePaul or St. John’s. Held offers from Duke, Northwestern, Ohio State, Clemson, Illinois, Ole Miss, Purdue, and Alabama.

Go Big East.

Great addition for Marquette, espnW #58 6-2 W/F Kendra Gillespie, a former Ole Miss commit who chose Marquette over Colorado, Kansas, Oklahoma State, and TCU:

Kyndall Hunter has committed to Texas:

Kyndall Hunter has committed to Texas:

Joins her Cy Creek teammate Rori Harmon plus Aaliyah Moore in what's shaping up as a very strong recruiting class for Vic on the Forty Acres. ESPN already had Texas at #4 in the 2021 class ranking before Hunter's announcement.

Great job by Vic Schaefer and his coaching staff in reeling in a tremendous 2021 recruiting class in just 7 months on the job, and not even having coached his first game at Texas yet.

That's a pretty broad top 13 scattered around the US . The true contenders i see here are UL , SC, Stanford, Oregon & Maybe U of A Or MD.

Her brother Zeke went to Arizona.

If Fudd lands at UCLA I think they will be a true contender as well, a front court for Nnaji and Betts could be pretty good.

Good catch ! Adia better be on it !

Not with Ms. Close to winning nothing leading the pack. See Nikki Blue , Lisa Willis & Noelle Quinn for answers.

That was two coaches ago! Those ladies played under Kathy Olivier

Canada, Billings and Burke are all UCLA alums that have entered the WNBA in recent years, FWIW. While she's a tweener Onyenwere could likely be another next year.

Same results

 

[nwhoopfan]

Same results

I have to protest that statement a bit. At UCLA Olivier had a .527 winning percentage and .526 in conference, in a less overall competitive league at the time. She made 4 NCAA Tourneys in 15 seasons and only got beyond the second round once. Had 6 seasons w/ sub .500 record in conference.

Close has a .654 winning percentage and .636 in conference. She had 5 Tourney appearances in her first 8 seasons and certainly would've added a 6th last year if there had been one. The Bruins have advanced to the Sweet 16 4 years in a row. 2 seasons sub .500 in conference. While Close isn't a world beater, her resume is much, much better than Olivier's clearly.

Vanderbilt has offered her sister Josie.

Very nice get for Megan Duffy and the Warriors. Looks like this addition is largely the work of new Marquette assistant coach Tony Greene, who was at Ole Miss when Gillespie initially committted there. Greene leaves Ole Miss and heads north to Milwaukee. So does Kendra.

Top 60 recruit for who had Carolyn Kieger's 2nd teamers and (most of) 2019 frosh headed to a very probable NCAA bid before the pandemic set it.

Top 60 Prospect Kendra Gillispie Commits To Marquette

Seems like a big deal for Megan Duffy and the Golden Eagles

There's a non-zero chance Vandy won't have the current staff when it's time for her to commit.

Any truth to the rumor that Jillian Hollingshead is down to UGA and UCLA?

That has been the consistent prediction for the last couple of weeks. However I’m not sure if she has actually put those schools out on social media.
