2025 Transfer Portal

I don't think she will be going back to Florida State. She can get more Nil money at 25 places more than there. They put an outstanding team on the floor every season and draw 1500 fans.

I have heard rumors for weeks she was leaving and is a Tennessee lean. She wants to go to a team she thinks can compete for a Final Four next year. Didn't want to leave FSU from what I understand but they couldn’t recruit well enough to get her some better teammates.

Draya Carter broke the story as well….
 
Ta’Niya Latson and Coach Caldwell could have some mutual interest. This would not impact the incoming recruits. Lauren Hurst will likely have to play inside although there was a mention of her playing guard at UT which based on what I’ve seen from Boyd,
Civil, and Prawl would’ve been a tough task.
If this even becomes a real possibility then I think this impacts Avery Strickland and Kaiya Wynn more than any current or incoming Tennessee players.
Cooper, Whitehorn, Latham, Spearman, with potentially Latson are all different types of players that compliment each other.

For me if we could get a player like Lattimore and Williams I think we can compete with anybody next season if none of the other players leave and with the freshmen coming in. If we add a guard like Latson just that much better cause she will have far more help at Tennessee than she did at Florida St. We really are not in the position to take three right now, but if we could this would be the three.
 
One thing to make note of, while there is so much actions and big name players entering the portal, we must also recognize that any of our players could also elect to enter the portal. If we continue to win, I like our chances of retaining what we have, but if we lose, the chances go up for transferring to begin.
The ones I am not certain of are Cooper and Latham. I feel extremely confident that Spearman, Boyd, and Whitehorn are staying. I'm not really thinking Cooper or Latham will get in just that they seem to be the most likely.
 
I know we need 1-2 bigs who are athletic, can defend and rebound, like Serah Williams and others similar, but if there are really good or elite guard who are interested you still take them... such as Latson I would love to have her on this team, she fits our style well.. plus the difference with us is, we actually do play 10-12 deep, with our rotation and sub style. So we can find minutes for people. plus just like in any sport you take all the talent you can get and let it sort itself out.

my top two wants at this stage are Serah Williams, and TaNiya Latson
 
All these players getting in the portal with 0.3 to 1.9 averages wonder what they are thinking? Do they think someone is going to be looking to grab them. Some are lucky to be where they are right now. 889 in the portal and probably about 200 that can help a team next season. Probably only about 75 that are very good to elite.
Many were probably encouraged to enter to help make room.
 
I would really like to see CKC get 2 bigs ! But there's no way you don't check the interest from this young Lady. One year and would be helpful for the young players coming in. Hopefully things work out for CKC to get what she wants.
You get your 2 bigs and YOU MAKE ROOM lol you simply cant bypast a talent like this and ive heard from multiple sources we been a player in this thing which doesnt shock me because the way we play is perfect for her
 
I just don't see her leaving FSU....The girl is just fantastic...I watched a few parts of FSU games and she was pure money at both ends of the court...She can drive to the basket, shoot the 3 ball, and defend like a tiger. The dreams continue.

I keep seeing posts about getting two bigs out of the portal ! I count 12 scholarship players for next year at this point in time ? If I’m wrong …. Please correct my counting? Maybe some people think we only need two ? But if a Larson wants to come play with us ? That’s a no brainer. Just saying
