I figured I would bring some info to spice up the convo as we head into the weekend. :D

You all can take this with a grain of salt , and I myself will believe it when it is announced, but I have heard a few rumblings from some recruiting circles I am around, we got a silent commit following the visits this past weekend, which could be a reason why Lunan cancelled her visit.

Nothing tickles the ears like silent rumblings...

But we've still got 13 days 'til the season begins, so keep feeding spicy, low-sodium treats into the rumor mill.

Who do we feel best about?? I certainly want all 3 or even 4 with Hurst. I'm not counting her in my question because in theory local product should give us a chance, but of the big 3 who do we have best chance at?

Hurst wants to double sport in volleyball right? I feel like UT is a great fit for her.

That class of 6 would be an incredible foundation for our staff going forward. Big class but with the portal it’s likely we lose some at some point which is why it’s so important to have the cupboard stocked.

Not a fan of relying on the portal to fill the roster, it should be used for 1-2 elite (lmao) mature additions each season.

Isn't that Hurst first on the right in the gray sweatshirt sitting?

Don't know Ayers well enough to recognize, but assume she's one of the girls sitting with her. I think that's her in Orange next to Lauren.

Looks like there's more than just the 2 having a visit.

Haylen is on the other side in the black.

It’s not gonna say ish lmao. The ball out is a garage joke that spreads rumors and blocks 150 people a day on Twitter.

Likely using this as clickbait to get LV fans to pay the fee only to discover they’re talking mad sh*t about us as usual. I’m not certain who is at that outlet that hates us so much but they have a true vendetta.

The stuff when Coach Sam was fired was vile.

They especially love hinting or even stating that the LVs are in with different recruits and transfers only to announce days later that the LVs got crushing news that another school got them. I don't typically get riled up about possible media bias towards schools, but this one is so obvious that their announcement posted above just does not change my hopes one way or another.

That site has been quiet since Coach Caldwell, Coach Lazo, and Coach Tubner successful transfer portal class. I recall their writers going completely silent while other Twitter pages were reporting the signings as headlines.

They also went quiet when Mia and Mya Pauldo announced their commitment which has been the most popular signing of the 2025 class on Social Media with over +100,000 reactions and millions of views.

I honestly believe this is to generate some engagement on their website right now due to all the big name players that have visited Tennessee in the past two weekends.

Tennessse could very well sign all three of the 2025 players that visited and I don’t believe this particular website has any firsthand knowledge or information on either of the player’s decision.

These pop-up click-generators are NOT media. Yeah, I know the whole genre is actually called “social media,” but Ball Out is no more “media’ than you are when you come here to socially post your thoughts and hopes and opinions about women’s basketball happenings.

We all have to see them for what they are: REAL media wanna-bes. Anyone can have a website and a podcast. Real media outlets vet sources, verify information, etc. before publishing/airing.

I bought a one-month subscription to Ball Out about a year and a half ago. It’s pitiful. A hodge podge of “writing” about fashion, food, and women’s college basketball. 😂 A VIP section, which costs extra, in the form of a message forum —like this one — with supposedly insiders answering fans’ questions about recruiting. It’s a scam.
