2024 Recruiting Thread

See JP vs TD

Tess Darby was the 5th most proficient 3 point shooter in the SEC last year at over 40% from range. Not really a comparison there last year. Honestly not enough games under their belt yet this year, but I would bet a paycheck that Tess will easily outshoot JP from the three point line this year too.

Not talking about shooting 3s

It's what I know, unlike you and your negative made up narrative.

Whatever you believe. We are not Tennessee Tech

You know what I know? Not sure that is accurate. Tossing out made up negative narrative under the direction of CKH in recruiting and place at the table is another fans denial. But please, allow my honesty of what you already know be viewed as a narrative.

How about 5th-year seniors and no promise of playing time? Sounds ligit and a turnoff to high school "Miss Everythings" that are used to playing 30+ minutes per game. I don't think Kellie would make empty promises whereas there are a lot of coaches that will say whatever they need to, to get a player to sign and then re-nigg later.

renege.

renege.

Thanks. When I was writing that, the word just didn't look right to me and my spell check didn't correct me lol. I appreciate that.

Think you were so far off even spell check couldn’t save you. I’ve done that

 

[creekdipper]

We've all been there. Fortunately, most of LV Nation has a healthy sense of humor.

 

[Coach Jumper]

renege.

hysterical faux pas

So what do you know about NIL and recruiting? I can promise you that I have pretty good information from a direct source. Casting doubt on the facts of the disadvantages that Tennessee has concerning available NIL resources to prove your point about the current LV staff is disingenuous.

Besides having a D1 softball player with her own? I’d say I know a little bit.

 

[FormerLadyVolFan]

? Lots of differences between the NIL environment for softball and WCBB.

That wasn’t the question. You asked what do I know about recruiting and NIL.

I think this subtopic is about Lady Vol Basketball...you might want to look at your post and complete the sentence. The LVBHC seems to be doing okay for the softball team and the other sports, but we're not in the same league in basketball as many of our competitors.

“So what do you know about NIL and recruiting?” - Earl

This is what you asked. Then you made statements and dropped the ever famous term “source”. Like I said earlier, Tennessee can compete with anyone when it comes to the value of the player. Not everyone is worthy of a Lexus when they fall in line with a Honda Accord (solid car).

I know we didn’t recruit Madi but she has been one of the main topics in this thread
thought some might want to see this

 

[River67]

Per Brandon Clay, Kaniya Boyd will miss her senior season with a knee injury and will enroll early at Tennessee

 

[VolFuture]

 

[VolFuture]

Anyone know who she took officials to? I know Us UCLA and Stanford.

Coach Sam still follows her and she’s usually pretty quick to unfollow if we are out of the race.

A very unusual selection of schools! A young women who knows her own mind. Good for her! She’ll fit in great as a Lady Vol!!!’

A top 10 , 6’ 0” guard from New Jersey !
Obviously she has the smarts when listing Vandy and Stanford. She would certainly be a big get for us ! Reel her in coaches !

 

[glv98]

I know Blakes is really good and would be a big get, but ya'll, another guard? We have about 72 of them.

Wynn is a Senior next year .
Wells has a bad wheel ?
Powell is gone…
Spear can play next year ?
Puckett , Tess, Strickland , Jill , Key … are not guards

So… Wynn is back and Wells and Spears are definitely maybe’s ? Cooper is a Sophomore and hasn’t played one minute yet and the Freshman couldn’t even finish playing in high school because she has a bad wheel ? I see five guards and four of the five are question marks ! Besides …. I would NEVER tell a top ten player NO WE HAVE TOO MANY PLAYERS IN YOUR POSITION?

There are times during a BB game you would want all five players to be guards or your best ball handlers and foul shooters. Like the last game we just played.
Just Saying !

Next year in their primary position

PG Destinee, Boyd (E Darby)
SG Jewell Ace
CG Kaiya Cooper

4s Sara Jill Tess
5s TK? Karo


I think we can handle one more if we either tell Tess bye or move her to her more natural stretch 4 position

We desperately need forward/posts
