2023 Recruiting

I know I have already said it, but I cannot stress strongly enough how CRAZY-loyal the people of Kansas are to their state. I once had an interesting conversation with a large group of lifelong Kansans I worked with and they all, one after another, shared stories about the culture and how difficult it would have been to go off somewhere else to work. Apparently people there see anyone who leaves to go elsewhere as insulting the entire state and all their Kansas ancestors. lol

The pressure is real!

one of the jobs,,,but yes,,,it is one of them
this is going to be a very telling year for Coach K,,,what she is doing is ,, Pat Summitt'ish
For Pat it was ruling the HS recruits,,,for Kellie it may have to be ruling the portal.
She's taking the newest wrinkle of game (portal players freely moving) and seeing if she can take parts and make them a unit....Go for it Kellie,,100

Dorothy agreed—and it’s right in harms way in Tornado Alley! 🤔

I saw on The Ball Out’s Twitter page they reported a 5⭐️ in the class of 2023 has made her decision and someone commented “Nichols to Kansas” in the comments. Not sure it’s for certain but looking like it may be.

Thanks she hasn't posted it on social media yet guess she will or maybe she just committed and want say anything else.

This isn’t accurate. It takes years to develop relationships with players. You may not like it, but it’s the truth.

Great, hopefully this translates to actually getting some commitments in future classes! After we win the championship this year, I really hope we start to see some dominoes fall for 2024!

"After we win the championship this year ... "
I sure love your optimism! Gosh, how great would that be? I don't know if my heart could take it, but I'd sure like to find out. 🧡

ESPN has changed their 2023 Hoopgurlz rankings

Looks like they just shuffled all the names and drew them out of a hot. Cause Nichols is better than the 34th player in the country. Some others they shifted downwards are better than some they shifted upwards. I really don't have a lot of confidence in the list except they do have all the top players somewhere on it.

You make a good point.

But…. citing WER for anything is not going to aid credibility. That one man outfit is full of (expletive excreted). He can't even distinguish between dominant and dominate. So add illiterate to bogus.

Well it appears to me that this year's high school recruiting ( 2023 ) has been and is a complete bust.....there is no other way to spin it .....

Certainly appears to be the case but the final roster is all I care about and I will again judge the final roster of the team two years from now based on that just like this coming season.

What is a bust… is thinking you can change the perception of a head coach & staff recruiting when everywhere anyone looks in the media it shows the complete opposite.

Nobody is losing sleep over 3 or 4 players signing with other schools when it’s their choice to make. You can’t force it. Let them go where they feel is best for them. Tennessee will sign 3 or 4 players and that’ll be the end of it.

Coming on this forum especially after the last two weeks to bicker with all the excitement of Tennessee athletics just shows a lack of credibility and borderline insanity if you ask me. Bust? Get forreal.

You and those weak minded Vol haters on this forum have loss the war! Just give it up.. Rocky Top was rocking🟧⬜️⬜🟧‼️
Nobody with any sense will take you serious or even like your trash post outside of the never has been like LV1908! … uttering one word of foolishness against Lady Vols recruiting & basketball to discredit Coach Harper, Coach Joy, and Coach Williams shows a lack of credibility! Why waste time going back and forth when Jasmine Powell was recently named to the Nation Top PG Pre-season award watch list. The same Powell who has declared to play the next two seasons in Tennessee.
You folks don’t know basketball.. or tradition.
