Ashlon Jackson is very impressive.

Western Michigan WBB grad transfer Jordan Walker (5-8 RS SO guard, Muskegon, MI) has a number of offers, including Baylor, Clemson, Pitt, Tennessee, and Texas Tech

Here's a story about Walker.

I'm only going to say with that competition we are going to have to bring on the charm with great virtual tours.

"One of the things I've been trying to get at the moment is dunking," Betts chuckled. "And I'm so close. I'm almost there. One of my things is, that's my goal: In one of the games, I really want to dunk."

In 2022, we have confirmed offers for:
- Lauren Betts
- Ayanna Patterson
- Sa'Myah Smith
- Ashlyn Watkins

Probably/possibly offers to:
- Janiah Barker
- Ashlon Jackson

Kim also follows KK Bransford on social media - so there might be some interest there.

Anyone else?

Wouldn't that be a heckuva class!

Ashlon Jackson sounds like she will be announcing mid Sept. Hopefully for the good guys. She plays with Sammie.

As obsessed as you are about "the dunk" one would think it would count as a 4-point basket.

Not 4, but could be 3 with an and 1. Look, players like this in WBB don't come along very often. And everyone wants them. We had a huge advantage with Griner.

Anyone.contacted today that wasn't listed above?

That dunk is looking good!

Seems it's off to the races for 2022 recruiting now. Any updates as to which way the wind is blowing for us and our 2022 offers?

Baylor also showing interest in Christeen Iwuala:

While Baylor keeps various AAU relationships "open" by contacting numerous recruits, going to be very surprised if the Bears sign any players except

5 - Betts or Basham
4 - Smith or Watkins
3 - Barker or Patterson
2 - Jackson or Bransford

Possibly, a player like Muhammad makes a huge jump this year and earns an offer.

With 2023 including players like Wagner, Cox, Williams, Clardy, Del Rosario, Kimpson and Carter, can't see Baylor taking two players at any position.

Signing two Super Elite recruiting classes back to back is difficult due to playing time concerns. Only taking four recruits in 2019, 2020, and 2021 certainly helps. 2-3 high levels transfers will help bridge the gap. But having opportunities to compete for playing time helps quite a lot.

How are we looking for these 22s? S. Smith seems to have a lot of interest but can't find much out about the rest.

A class of Betts, Smith, Barker, Jackson would make me very happy.

Is it possible we might be able to lure Del Rosario to play with Betts-Basham since Hannah G will still be here (like Kalani-Lauren- Beatrice) or is it more.likely a one or the other? Thanks!

Kennedy Basham and her brother, a Pepperdine commit, are very close. Speaking to this
close relationship, Kennedy's mother was quoted in a May 2020 article......

"Right now, she says she's open to anything but I think once he's gone it's going to hit her and hopefully that will keep her in the West Coast."

Moms certainly can be a big influence.

Nice rehab video of Sa'Myah Smith on twitter.

Someone on this thread mentioned that Ayanna Patterson could dunk...yep...and with ease!

With that 9 foot rim, she should.

Wow! Good eye AP!

Queen Egbo has dunked in Baylor practices on a regulation 10' rim, NaLyssa Smith may be able to as well

Yes she has, Nalyssa has with a volleyball. Amazing Adriacus spotted the 9' rim !!!

No kidding! It never occurred to me that someone would post a "dunk" on a 9' rim. I'm now driving myself nuts trying to figure out what Adriacus spotted that gave it away!

Yea. How do we know it was a 9' rim? Looks like 5' between that fellow's head and the rim. He's crouched down, so does that make him 4 ft tall? Just wondering if 9 ft is known or an assumption?

On those Gared units [they are very uniform in dimensions as opposed to Spaulding units] you look at the angle of the boom extension. I guessed 9' but it might be 9'6 [most Gared units set at 8, 9 or 10 feet but some bump up in 6 inch increments]. The angle of that boom extension isn't enough for the unit to be set at 10 feet.

FYI, the guy in the video is REALLY short. Use her as the comparison point after she lands. The angle of the video is funky [likely on purpose] but note the gap between her head and the net. Basketball nets are generally 15-18 inches top to bottom. She would be taller than Brittney Griner if that rim was set at 10 feet.

To visualize, that Gared equipment is a 5 foot boom similar to this model.

I don't know? Isn't she 6' 4",
She jumps at least a foot and a half off the ground.
Her arms are way over 2 feet long.
6. 4
1. 6
2. 0 = 9'-10"
The guy is short - maybe 5' 10" for sure.
Why would you practice dunking on a short rim, does you no good.
Let's give her the benefit of doubt here - she is someone we want!!!!!!!
Even if it is lower, still impressed!
