Probably because she didn't consider a single school west of Texas during her high school recruitment.

I could see Arizona and UCLA as options this time around, but strictly because Barnes and Close have hit the transfer portal harder than just about any other head coaches recently.

Considering AZ, OSU, UO, Stanford have all successfully recruited heavily outside of their states, and, PAC-12 has done pretty well in the NCAA Tournament, I don't see why it would be a stretch for a kid that wants to win at a top-notch program.
 
She is now officially in the transfer portal. Wonder if she selected the option to be contacted by any coaches, or the option to not be contacted (which typically means she already knows where she's headed).

Pretty weird situation. The facts of what is known is the team played more cohesive without her, while she was out sick. She came back, scores some points, plays no defense at all, she allowed uncontested layups multiple times last few games. Sounds like there was dusgruntlement from other players/coaches about lack of defensive effort.

Whoever gets her better plan on her not playing defense much, she is a great scorer, but as other players in the past have been, she is a blackhole when passed to.
 
I think she has the potential to be one of the better players in Wcbb with the right coach. LSU makes the most sense to me. Kim does well with kids who have somewhat of a reputation for trouble. And I have no doubt that she will recruit well this off season and Williams ends up there in two seasons as well
 
Hmmmm.

So, I was wondering that if you enter the portal, do you still have an affiliation with the team? Also, what year was Rickea? So I went to the MSU WBB site's page on Rickea Jackson and there's a ",404" so that portal door probably hit Ms. Jackson on the way out. Whew.

That said, a few thoughts after looking at this thread:
  • She'll be a senior next year. And I'll bet a bottom dollar she plans on going pro the moment her senior season is done. So this is a one and done proposition. Any team that is interested should really look at it from that perspective. Buyer/hirer beware.
  • Given the fact that C. Viv hasn't been coaching at all this year, I'm not so certain of Rutgers.
  • Starkville is one happening place. My best to all the Bulldog fans on this board.

Jackson was a part of the recruiting class of 2019.. Jones, Boston, Cooke, Horston, etc.

That class is looking better and better each day as far as pro prospects.

Is that her reputation? Or is it rumor?
 
I would have to be a serious title contender or maybe a coach on the hot-seat to take on any newcomer. This is especially if it impacts another player in the middle of their development or team chemistry. I'm conservative when it comes to these things. I play the long game.
 
I think we need to be cautious as to what we're getting out of the article regarding "internal issues". For all we know, the discord could be a wide range of things, including Jackson herself.

And remember, we all learned well after the fact that Carter had a lot of issues going on mentally and had to step away for her own mental health. Jackson deserves the benefit of the doubt as we'll never know the full story.

She is moving on and MSU will as well.
 
With likely one season remaining to be played before Rickea enters her name into the WNBA draft, she might need to ask herself a simple question about where she transfers -- what's better/less risky, the devil you already know (Vic) or the devil you don't know at all (Kim, Dawn, Jeff, Brenda, Yo, Kelly, Adia, Cori, etc.) ?

Tons of talent in the 2019 and 2020 classes. The 2021 class has been underwhelming so far but there's a long way to go before those kids are getting drafted.

The two superclasses:

Azzi: injured
Raven: injured
Rivers: early injury. buried on depth chart early. Gettin' some PT, but shooting percentage very low
Feagan: buried behind Boston, Cardosa, Amihere.
Ducharme: Living up to billing.

Hall: doing okay. getting meaningful PT for Scar
DeBerry: Buried behind ONO
Poffenbarger: Transferred.

I disagree the 2021 class has been pretty decent! Morrow carrying DePaul, Durcharme carrying Uconn, Harmon down at Texas and Day-Wilson at Duke have all been really good for their programs!
 
Most people don’t know Rickea actually visited SC and Miss St TWICE during her HS recruitment. She visited both on an OV and then took an extra UV because she couldn’t decide between the two. I hope she gives Dawn a second chance. She fits the SC mold, we’re losing 5 seniors this year so she would definitely receive time or start, and she and Cooke are long time friends and hung out after the game a few weeks ago.

I agree and as someone said before, it's still too early to tell with this class.

There also are some interesting freshman in the Big 10. Barkowski of Nebraska, Ekh and Hageman of Michigan State and Sellers of Maryland have impressed. All have earned Freshmen of the Week awards at least once this season.

And don't forget Morrow out of the Big East. What she has done to date has been impressive.

Edit I know you mentioned her, but I feel it needed to be repeated. :)

She ain’t going to LSU. Probably SC, Texas, Ole Miss, maybe Tennessee

Wildcard is Michigan

There are some good players no question, but the depth and impact pales compared to the 2019 and 2020 classes.

Kierstan Bell is possibly going pro this year, I read somewhere.
Diamond Miller has been injured a bunch this year, but she'll be playing pro ball.
Maybe Jakia Brown-Turner from NC State and Liz Kitley at Va. Tech. List goes on...
