Some only think they understand recruiting. You can NOT just sit and wait until all come out. The majority will be taken and you will be left to live or die by the final few. And, very possibly wind up with a short bench like this year. Get a couple as they start coming out, get a couple later.
Not every player need be a star, but every player has to be given a playing time/role projection and buy into that projection. Unhappiness is contagious.
Correct me if Im wrong Adriacus, but weren't you one of the ones that stated NC inherited a broken roster, and that this wasn't good? Now it's a good thing because having too many players will cause a ton of frustration?
If so, this speaks volumes, as when Kim would only recruit 1-2 players a year, posters thought the sky was falling and that she was losing her touch, when in actuality, its just never good to stack up on multiple recruits (at least in Women's Basketball), with an example being the Fab 5 that Mulkey recruited.
The roster was problematic. Rosters need to be at least 12 players [and preferably 14 if containing developmental players].
But every player needs to buy into their role: star, starter, rotation piece, next player up, developing, etc.
You are acting as though the two concepts are in opposition…..not true.
And you are clearly a "Kim" fan…….so not expecting much fair commentary on new staff. FYI, the Every Day of the Season #1 team [USC-East] has quality players stacked at every position.
All this supposition is just your own wishful thinking, right? I mean, nobody on here thinks his or her input is worth anything to those in charge, right?

I agree rosters should never exceed 12. Imo, you only need to go 9 deep anyways.
Every player can't buy into a role if you're constantly recruiting 4-5 stars, thats why the transfer portal is the new wave. You can find 3-4 players, all of which have a distinct play style that will compliment the players that are already on the team.
I'm a fan of anyone who has been a proven coach. You're a Kim "hater" obviously, yet I still choose to have somewhat of a conversation with you. I've given NC and the staff many praises. Haven't seen it from you with Kim, but this isn't about her.
South Carolina also goes through many transfers as well.
No point in stockpiling multiple recruits, when some don't have the mentality to wait their turn, or go through the whole seniority bull*****

We should be the suiters for the best 4 transfers available next year. No reason why we shouldn't. Losing Smith in my opinion is the equivalent of losing Griner.
If folks want not simply "a" primary source but "the" primary source of Baylor WBB's current roster building process, go back & read Coach Collen's comments beginning from her hire.
1. She looks for size on the perimeter. Not size for O purposes as much as for D purposes. Allows the greatest flexibility on switches.
2. She wants finishers at every position and shooters at [hopefully 5 positions] realistically 4 positions [mobile bigs that can routinely nail jumpers are rare]. But a 5 can be athletic enough to defend and rim run.
3. She wants multiple initiators. And reinitiators at various positions……easier to flow into secondary actions rather than settle for poor shots or pull the ball out to start over.
4. She wants athletic players who can defend whatever switches occur. Switch everything works REALLY well for teams with athleticism and size across the roster.
5. She and her staff are not combing the Transfer Portal, they have staff for that work. They take over down the road.
6. They value roster balance. They don't want the roster clustered with all upperclassmen or lower class men.
7. Culture matters.
My thought, not her comment: hoping that the current staff was not given the "expense transfer" ability arrangement that the prior staff had [for every unused roster spot resulting in savings, you get extra $ to your general budget]. That policy problematically incentivized small roster size. And, in my opinion, is morally questionable since participation via scholarship is at the heart of Title IX.

It's a slow day in the thinking department for me. Could someone please clarify for me: is this young lady someone that the coaching staff has expressed an interest in, or is this just we fans speculating that she is someone we "should" go after?

Yeah see I don't listen to arrogance
Partial or incomplete "information" is part of the textbook definition of the word conjecture.

Regardless, we need two maybe 3 players from the portal. We have 9 players for next year. 9.
We need more. So, with the signees and Bickle and Jamee we need at minimum of 2 players to get us a bit of depth.
So portal speculation here we go.

I hate to quote myself but.....Dr. J said:
Is this the part of the forum where we excitedly sniff at every name that enters the portal? I would be more patient and wait as the tourney unfolds. There will be more quality names that enter. Oregon is usually good for 2-3 transfers out every year and they just lost.
https://www.espn.com/womens-college-basketball/story/_/id/33552849/oregon-women-basketball-coach-kelly-graves-calls-players-ducks-fall-2ot
This is where it begins for Kelly Graves....calling out players publicly instead of privately. Never liked him as a coach and his real talent laid in his assistant, Mark Campbell, who is now the HC at Sac State. Guess he is feeling the pressure of the "million dollar college coaches club" with his new extension to 2029.
I sure would like Paopao and Sabally on a wish list.....if they want to play for a WNBA coach.....just sayin.....
i believe Sabally is going to the draft… from post she has had on social media it is hinting to that
Raoul: Into the portal out of TCU WBB:
Tavy Diggs, 6-2 JR wing, Richardson, TX
Aja Holmes, 5-8 SO guard, Cibolo, TX
Yo'Myris "Yummy" Morris, 6-3 SR forward, North Little Rock, AR (grad xfer)
Wonder what's going on here. Is Pebley leaving? We could use Yummy.

Blackwell averaged a double-double and led the @SEC in rebounding last season. She should have 2 years of eligibility remaining.
I had a feeling this was going to happen this is who we need to go after HARD!!!! She traded bucket for bucket with Lyss
It would be nice to know why players want to transfer. You could be going after a great player that is a team disruptor. I guess the coaches have the grapevines to have a good idea.Brusinbear2001 said:SOURCE: #Mizzou's Aijha Blackwell plans to enter the Transfer Portal.

I trust CNC to make this kind of decision.
i know she had issues with the coach and then a previous player before the nit and finished the season out. I heard she like had a team violation of rules did what she had to do to be cleared and then still got sat out because coach wanted to prove some point.

Players talk. And it is discussed with any and all possible recruit. But that info should never be made public or known by a fan base. Kids deserve that much.
She is a great player and rebounder and one I hoped we would pursue if she is a good fit. We could use the rebounding help and she led the SEC at 6'0"!
and she is a 6'0 guard played post out of necessity
The Carr's are in the transfer portal as Grad. transfers.
Christianna Carr is a 6-1 guard and Chrislyn Carr is a 5-5 guard.
Wonder if they are heading to LSU?

I don't
I expect her to post a poll on SicEm365.
We need a voice!!!
Mulkey has not had issues with relationships before. What I hear, it was allowed as long as it didn't interfere with the team.Brusinbear2001 said:
