Frogs won 1 conf game 2 urs ago … look what a recruiting coach can do …we recruit bricklayers not elite 3 pt snipers ..
yes, when you get a masculine 6'7" female BB player it can improve your team and add HVL in there too !

Wonder how much they paid those 2 studs ?


I googled that question and found HVL got about $700k and Prince got about $340k. No idea how accurate that info is.


Van Lith's dad always wore shirts with her name or initials--not TCU or Frogs. It was a bit creepy to me, like she's a corporation or LLC. I guess that's what is called "branding".

Prince came to TCU with no great player resume or outstanding record; just her 6'7" height. Not to mention the personal baggage, which apparently didn't bother TCU, the coach who brought her from Oregon, or her NIL sponsors.

The call by CNC had nothing to do with BU players 3 ball % history from the 3.!!!
It was an in-game play call that haters on here say she does not have the coaching acumen to do.
Defending us hard at the 3 Pt. line was obviously a point of emphasis for TCU and I dare say they had very good success with that strategy for 44+ minutes !!
Anybody with half a % basketball IQ would know what TCU was going to do - smother the 4 Smurf's with Instructions from Campbell to play 5 on 4 at the arch and DO NOT FOUL NETTY - LET HER GO UNCONTESTED TO THE RIM as a 2 pt.. bunny doesn't tie the game.
I guarantee Campbell was caught by surprise when Netty shot the three. It was a gamble for sure by CNC that I have no problem with whatsoever.
Netty has hit that shot in practice and a couple of times in early season games.
That was going to be by far the best opportunity for an open, clean look at the basket with no defender close to rush her shot. .....that is what any coach wants for her players .... a good clean look ... no other player on the floor was going to get that open look from TCU .... there would be totally different postings in this site if Netty hits that shot..
