[ReignSupreme]

Not yet still on the open market. I think she may have to go mid major to find a home.

I think she should look at Syracuse, she'd be back in NY and will be able to play for a coach who truly value's their PG and PG play.

 

[ReignSupreme]

I still vote a strong no to each his own on her. I hope were not looking that way.

I'd take her she has 3 years of eligibility left and it's isn't a guarantee we can land a 2025 high schooler due to the recent coaching change.

It’s way MORE likely we land players in 2025 than it was 2 months ago.

We have the Nil money to sign high school recruits now, we better get a top class in 2025.

Will they be players of her caliber? Because if memory serves me correctly, the players couldn't be lower than top 30 around here.

That's my hope and belief as well, but I am also preparing myself for what it might look like if it isn't a top class and what that looks like around these boards. Because the standard here from Holly, to Kellie is Top 25 players or at least that's what everyone screams about. So will people be satisfied if her first class has two or three players ranked in the 80's or 90s according to ESPN?

Kristy must have done enough crying and begging or found enough cash. I have no doubt she’d have been at UT if she didn’t return to Bama.

At least she was smart enough to see Notre Dame was a bad fit.

 

[Coach Jumper]

Can she shoot? Do we know?

Velez was a 4 star with an excellent handle and a vg 3 pt shot while playing AAU with "Rose"
she never got a chance to show what she could do with LSU
Her longest stint for a game was 10 minutes and her average was 5....Anybody with that kind of limited time on the floor can NOT show their regular game bc they go in either trying too hard to create a spark or trying to hard not to make a mistake...playing minutes like that kills a player's game bc they never get into a mental mindset of just playing the game,,,their only mindset is to be too careful or be too wild

I am 100% behind Velez and hope that Lazo goes after this future sensation

nope...a P5 will definitely be in her future

I’ll be disappointed but most others on here will be excited for any player we get, and they will over hype them. The 1st class will tell me what I need to know, and yes some people on here will be happy as long as it’s any high school commit.

I think with Latham, Spearman and Hollingshed we addressed a lot of our needs in the paint. Three athletic, mobile players. Of each can grab 5 boards and score 6-8 points that puts us way ahead of where we were with the center position last season.

Yes. One glaring difference will be that both Latham and Spearman are great leapers, something we haven't seen much of in the post since ... gawd, has it been this long? ... Glory Johnson.

We've had some height here and there, but not a lot of long players who have some spring to 'em. And to me, that's the kind of thing that makes the difference between good post play and potentially great post play.

These two can elevate to dominate, and that's going to make them fun to watch. And because Kim's plan to have among the hardest working teams in the country, they'll be in such good condition and strength that they'll be able to handle their business without committing too many fatigue fouls.

I cannot wait for the season to start!

Oh ... but I definitely still have my fingers crossed our capable, dynamic staff will reel in a big fish out of the point guard pool before too long. Need to get her on campus and start dreaming BIG asap.

I really appreciate that you’ve been so consistent with your expectations and desires from recruits, scheduling, and results across coaching regimes.

 

[travis929]

Um, what?

 

[glv98]

Um, what?

Dear God. Because the rest of the SEC needs it to be even harder?

 

[madtownvol]

Um, what?

We need a law against this!! Kiki you can anywhere but South Carolina (and Uconn, and LSU and Texas and....)

 

[DarkPhoenix]

Um, what?

I’ll have to disown Kiki is she does this.

 

[madtownvol]

Perhaps there is a point on the continuum where having too much talent on the roster = having no talent on the roster....

one can only hope

 

[lvocd]

Um, what?

Ugh. Seems like a terrific kid and obviously a great player.

Dear Kiki: Are you sure you even want to consider being a Cock when you could be a Lady Vol? I mean ... just sayin'.

Can we even get a visit?

 

[lvocd]

Someone call the ol' "witchdoctor" who used to post waaaaaay back in the day. Something has to be done about South Carolina. Good grief.

 

[glv98]

Can you imagine moving from San Francisco to Columbia, SC? The culture shock alone will set KiKi back for months.

We’re seeing some super teams built. Have to hope they all don’t gel together or at some point want more minutes. The way some of these teams are stacking talent will produce great games at the top, but I worry that we’ll lose some of the parity that has been building in WBB.

 

[glv98]

Can we even get a visit?

Most likely not. Why would she gamble on so much unknown when she has her choice of knowns? Unfortunately, we are still in the spot of having to do more with less and actually win something to get that level player in here.
