Tori McCoy will sign on Monday

I guess we all have different meanings for the word great. I'm not saying she is the best, elite or a shoe-in AA but yes, IMO, she is a great player. You have to be a great player to be a major contributor to a perennial top 25 team and have a long list of USA basketball accomplishments. I did mention that I thought her level of greatness was not showcased (very well at least) at Kentucky for whatever reason. My feeling is that because she was used at the 3 spot in a lackluster offense she was not utilized properly. Just my opinion. She is a 1 or 2 guard with pass first mentality. Her biggest strengths are rebounding from a guard position (she was an outstanding rebounder in high school as well) and her defense. She is easily one of the better defenders in WCBB from the 30 or so games I've seen her play. So yes, I see her as a great player but I should clarify that isn't my top classification of how I rate players.

She is also considering South Carolina from what I've heard. She has an unconditional release so there are no stipulations regarding her eligibility for the school she chooses, regardless if it is to SEC or not.

Yes, you and I attach different meaning to the word great.

The problem with Harper has always been where to play her. I agree she's not a wing, but she's not a very good 2 or 1. She doesn't shoot the ball from the perimeter well enough to be a 2 (or 3) and she really hasn't shown the skills need to run the point (poor A/TO ratio).

I agree Harper is an excellent rebounder.

Puh-leeze! You and many other "visiting" fans of Tennessee, SC, Louisville, Duke, Baylor, Rutgers and, now. California have been welcome to post here -- as it should be. This thread allowed some of us to have fun at your beloved school's expense. There was nothing vile or ugly or mean-spirited.

Now, you want childish? Read any thread about UConn on your message boards or -- better yet read how unwelcome any us are to post there.

And good luck to your LadyVols.. I hope they have an injury-free season.

Well I don't want childish so do you another option. I don't think there was a need to bring up another board and consider it to be mine when I'm not even apart of it.....anyhow I still think this thread turned out to be childish! O and I also hope UCONN has an injury free season as well.

BTW, Lady Vols and Syracuse are in the running for Harper. SEC does not require Harper to sit out an extra year if its an Intra Conference Transfer. Mitchell did give Harper an unconditional release. She can sign with any team.
