I'll start by saying I know nothing about recruiting other than what I can put together on fan sites. For 2019, we can take a maximum of 3 recruits, barring attrition in the current ranks. We already have one on board, guard Jordyn Oliver, #37 on Prospects Nation. There was a rumor in the fall about the #1 recruit, Nyah Green, decomitting from Louisville and coming over to the good guys. I'm sure we would make room for her under any circumstances. I also saw that we made the shortlist for the top post, Taylor Jones out of Dallas. I have to think she is a top target for us with Brown needing replacing that year. The girl from Kansas was Kennedy Brown, the #10 ranked post in the class, and #48 overall. Looks like a nice player, but we may not have room for her, which is an incredible luxury in itself.

If anyone has more up-to-date information, I would appreciate it.

Edit: Should've known slimecap would beat me to it. How do you find these so fast?

(plus coaches from all 9 of the schools she's narrowed it down to)
the 4 mentioned plus Cal, Louisville, Oregon, Texas and UCLA have come to see her play personally."

17 May 2017
"Haley Jones has all the characteristics of an elite basketball player
size at 6-1, quickness, versatility to play all five positions and high energy. Having parents who were both basketball coaches, meaning a chance to spend hours in the gym, didn't hurt. And neither does her size 12 feet. Amid all this, of course, is recruiting. Jones has heard from virtually every top program in the nation already and those conversations will continue. Only a sophomore, she is still growing and still has plenty of time to continue to develop.

"My college recruitment is going really well," she said. "I am grateful for the many opportunities to play at the next level. I am focusing on getting to know certain coaching staffs and do my research on their respective basketball programs."

I don't see Mulkey overly recruiting 2019, unless it's for top players.

We may have to wait until 2020 to get our true post player

2019 KENNEDY BROWN
6-5 F/C
Derby HS in Derby KS

March 27, 2018
Excerpts

.. Brown sits at No. 16 in the country and is a 5-star prospect.
.. Brown's desire to find tight-knit relationships with the coaching staffs and players at each school.
.. As a forward and/or center that doesn't solely play on the block, Brown said it was also important finding universities that shared that vision.
.. Brown and her family have traveled to roughly 20 schools nationwide to give her the chance to meet coaches firsthand and get a look at each program.

List is narrowed down to the following 7 schools (no particular order)
Baylor "Kim Mulkey is very competitive and she's very driven. She knows what she wants to do and she wants to win. She's going to make you better," Brown said.
Louisville
Oklahoma Brown said the program has been recruiting her longer than anyone else.
Oregon State After joining the Oregon State coach staff in 2016, assistant Katie Baker's first recruiting contact was with the Derby junior.
Oregon
UCLA Coaches have made a habit of traveling to Derby to see Brown play this season as well as making a recent in-home visit.
Tennessee Brown also shared that the campus fit her vision of a place she'd enjoy outside of basketball as well.

Andrews and Gusters are most likely at the top of Kim's 2020 list. When I have watched Andrews play, both times this past season, there were Baylor coaches watching.
