Probably pie in the sky and have heard the heavies mentioned but not sure anyone really knows. We certainly have some connections.

She is program changing and after that Iowa State game i am apart of the Kiki Fan Club. My hot take is she is better than Brink, but Brink just had more experience.

for our program she fits perfectly with no change in system at all. NIL might be an issue but like i said before when you win you get deals. They want players who are on teams in March.

I could just see a Kiki and Sarah duo being LETHAL!!

Agree with all of that. Think she is better than Brink definitely offensively. She fits us like a glove. Now if we could only get her on campus.

HVL visiting Mississippi State this weekend.

What's the idea here? Go where you can take all the shots to pump up draft stock?

She lacked experience and maturity. That is what made Brink better. Brink was a better rebounder but Kiki had a better drive and footwork. Kiki will be a program changer wherever she goes. I doubt Jana has any connection with her given they were years apart, but I expect her to go to someone playing in the second weekend of the tournament. Just hope she doesn't go somewhere where she will be forced to stand on the block and not utilized given her incredible mobility.

her and Jana would have played Kiki's Freshman year together. And I do not know if i'm doing play ground pick up i'm getting Kiki. But just personal preference. Cameron Brink is AMAZINGGGG!!

it would be absolutely HUGE!!! and then imagine Kyla getting to learn from her!! Mannnnn

She touches all the bases CNC wants in a big but the same can be said for practically every coach in the country.

even if she doesn't she is the type of player you make it work for if she wants to go to your school.

Kiki previously said Baylor was in her Final 5 due to relationship with Kim and coaching staff. Pursuing Masters degree. She has do not contact tag so she knows where she is going, or has a couple teams she is considering. Reports say she is pursuing NIL $$ for her 4th year.

yeah but she didn't choose Baylor for a reason I think we have a lot of new stuff from Arean, to practice facility, to coaching staff, to players. Maybe we could talk to her because like we were talking about last night she is a perfect fit for what we need.

Again, Kiki has do not contact tag so she knows where she wants to go. She is pursuing NIL $$ for her final year. Let's see if Baylor is offering big NIL. And she will probably want national tv exposure and a chance for Final 4. Guessing it will be one of the top 10 teams, maybe USC-w or UCLA and stay close to home.

I think right now though we need a one year rental to get us in the top conversations so we can get back as a household name again. Once that happens NIL comes, recruits come, it's just a chain reaction.

You may be right. Still not my preference, but I can understand the reasoning of why needed in certain situations. Regardless, I'm looking forward to see how things develop with the Baylor roster, including who the mystery visitor is this weekend.

Whitehorn has do not contact tag. It's been verified she is visiting FSU and LSU within the next week.

which i could very well see her in a USC or UCLA. But as a fan i'm just speculating. It wouldn't be a bad player to have.

I do believe with the other people who have went on visits and stuff the recruit coming would have to be Grace.
Chance is said to be going to Ohio State
Ruby is at Florida State
and those are the players we have been at for a while.

I do think Grace fits our system really well. Especially when teams try to zone us she can shoot them out of it and pass from the top of the key. It will give Buggs the opportunity to roam again get boards and use her sneaky athleticism.

I think Grace would be a great player in Nicki's system and give us the height we need. I suspect Nicki would also be looking for one or two other players. I do really hope we can get Grace.

Three adds is the likely target. Not expecting anything less than two.

15 leading scorers from P6 schools have entered their name into the transfer portal so far:

UNC - Deja Kelly
Pitt - Liatu King
Oklahoma State - Hannah Gusters
Marquette - Liza Karlen
Villanova - Lucy Olsen
Xavier - Mackayla Scarlett
Michigan - Laila Phelia
Rutgers -…

A LSU fan friend told me an assistant coach from Louisville is on staff at MS State, so might be connection.

The head coach was HVL assistant coach at Louisville.

Still in good position with our targets?
Are we looking at a late 24 add possibly still?

besides Imari who is even left

Think Awa Fam is a 24. Maybe another Euro.

ooohhh okay okay i forgot about her

Probably nothing but Sarah and Deja Kelly were Proskills teammates back in the day.

Deja Kelly & Sarah Andrews were a serious duo back in AAU! @dejakelly25 @sarah_T2D pic.twitter.com/H8uADSRwav

Deja Kelly is a very good three level player. Anyone know about her defense and assist making?

Big nothing. Let's just say, UNC is the first team Deja played on that didn't disband or have their coach suspended shortly after her arrival.

Kind of surprised UNC hasn't disbanded the university altogether, or that the state of North Carolina hasn't sunk into the Atlantic ocean after she arrived. I'm kidding of course. But only half.

I really like Awa fam. Has anyone heard anything about her planning to play in the US?

Fam had zoom calls with LSU and Louisville. She is only 17 yo. She is still playing for Spain and decided to hold back/delay coming to US for visits. She hasn't decided yet if she wants go to college or continue to play in Europe. Since she is young, she can wait another year if she wants.

any word or sighting of who is one campus today?

Nope radio silence

i always wonder why we struggle to get information on the women's team in terms of recruiting and all that. It seems we get it for the men, we know who is coming, when, and just overall more information. I feel Coach Nicki is open with Media and stuff so i am just curious why that is.
