2022 Recruits

[djtee]

Yea, i just don't know how much of a priority she is/was

That's a mix of schools if i ever saw one.

I hear Auburn but we will see

 

[VA_VOLFAN]

I hear Auburn but we will see

She would probably be a good land for the new coach at auburn

 

[Coach Jumper]

She doesn’t play “good” enough defense on the perimeter and starts as a post player

Justine has VG perimeter defense

Years ago, when Breanna Stewart was coming to the Huskies from High School, I would check the Boneyard to try and get a feel of what she would mean to that team and their program...

I would marvel at the range this tall girl had and how her very presence appeared to bolster their program...They knew whenever Stewart got the ball she was capable of draining a long 3 ball, or coming inside for a driving lay up, or a jump shot at the elbow....

Now we will have our own tall young lady that is going to write the history books in favor of the LVs...A history that will show the deepest of 3 ball is common place for her, and there will be no place on the offensive side of the court that will not be within her range.

I expect during her senior year her fame will only grow, and grow, and many will desire her for their team...The girl with the flying ponytail is all Lady Vol.

I’m glad we have JP. But that comparison as a recruit only works from a size standpoint. BS was a can’t miss top of class kid every top program wanted.

 

[Lucy]

We can take Joyner off the board

Good luck to this young lady. Now that is an odd final group. Who are pirates?

I think it’s Eastern Carolina

Eastern Carolina University (ECU). Looks like she is home state heavy.

Thanks for that, I’m excited to see her suit up for the team.

 

[Coach Jumper]

Thanks for that, I’m excited to see her suit up for the team.

I suggested a couple of things for her to concentrate on: moving into the line of a drive instead of trying to swipe at it from the side as the driver went by and closing out with the low body instead of standing vertical on her closeouts,,,I also complimented her on her defensive footwork as it was much improved over this past year

 

[Coach Jumper]

My newest prodigy, a 2026'er is going to be a top 100 player before she even enters HS...Looking forward to coaching her this Saturday in the E-80 games

 

[PAPI]

I’m seeing a common theme…people talk about all these new possibilities for the 2022 class and that player then commits elsewhere….so it’s then time to talk about how we didn’t have enough time to recruit the 2022 players but we will kill it in 2023…I sure hope so!

 

[Terrells Bay88]

Eastern Carolina University (ECU). Looks like she is home state heavy.

Jim

It's more ACC (3) heavy than home state (2) heavy.

 

[J-Dog 1313]

I believe ECU is East Carolina.

 

[Volfan2012]

Coaches know what they need we'll see if they get those players. Would like to have a post and top guard. We can't judge how it went until signing day gets here. No one is signed players that are committed can change their minds other players can become candidates and receive offers. Quite positive we have two or three players that are not listed by anyone on an offer sheet. Still very confident we'll get the players we need.

While I can respect on some level your dogged insistence on declaring anything Lady Vol as the best regardless of circumstance or detail, sometimes I just don't get it. I hope she's a good player, but comparing her to Stewart and claiming she'll rewrite the history books ... whoookaaaaaaay.

 

[Volfan2012]

Very good player probably better than her Premier ranking.

She is and to note NC is heavy from top to bottom when it comes talent i have already posted about a few players.

I’d agree that time isn’t a good excuse with 22s. But, coach did clean house of the assistants that don’t live with her most likely based largely on lack of traction with the type of players needed to compete for championships in 2022. I’ve expected impact in 2022 but one of them hadn’t been on the big time circuit for two years. Still hopeful for 22 but it has to happen by 23.

We'll have no body-shaming here, sir!!!

Fair assessment. I'm very interested in how 22 closes. *If* we strikeout, 23 is absolutely make-or-break.

NC is a short, stocky state. There's no shame in that; we are too. We can't all be Indiana.

Think how Rhode Islanders feel.

 

[Rickster]

Or Oklahoma. Thing is that there are several reasons players commit elsewhere. Time is a relevant impact whether it is a factor or not. Time is certainly not the only factor.

OK OK what i ment is the state is heavy from top to bottom with very good players.

Just having a little fun. We only tease with friends!

I totally agree with your serious basketball point that NC is loaded with some serious talent. Now to see if Banghart can win games with them.
