Erika Porter discusses her journey as a basketball player to overcoming some health issues, transferring from Illinois to Baylor.  What she loves about Baylor and what she expects to bring to the program.

Conversation Notes

  • We discuss a blog post by Tiny Green on her journey as a basketball player and how much sweat equity she put into getting better along with the sacrifices her mother made to help her.  
  • Her health issues at Illinois and why the experiences there led her to hit the transfer portal and why she found a home at Baylor.  
  • The family atmosphere at Baylor and the focus on skill development have been major positives for her so far this summer.  
  • Tony Greene at Baylor had recruited her at Ole Miss and was the primary contact for her. 
  • She’s outgoing so she has assimilated quickly at Baylor.  The heat was the biggest adjustment for her.  
  • She likes sushi and is a regular at J Petal in Waco.  
  • Erika sees her role as a shot blocker, rebounder, pick setter and finisher in the paint.  
  • She answers message board questions.
