I am not sweating anything. How hard is it to understand I just said first year coaches can get elite recruits? I never said we aren’t. BYU will and THIS is the first year for Pope and he will. It’s possible.

Only took me 24 hours to understand your opinion. Sorry. 😣 🙏

If you get as many shots/points in 26 minutes, that's better long term to save the wear and tear on your body.
40 minutes a game in college is

Let's get this straight...

Players are not going to be transferring often or at all from programs that have players that we need to get over the top and be a top 8 program again!

UConn
Notre Dame
Stanford
USC
South Carolina
Texas
Ohio State
LSU
UCLA

Well, it’s not quite straight because 5-stars have transferred from those teams because they were hardly getting off the bench where they were.

Really? I guess my mileage varies bc I always saw Jewel as bubbly and funny, one of her best traits from the time of her visit. All her coaches and teammates last yr said it. Did you miss all the tik tok dance videos? That started way back in the summer when she and Rickea played for FIBA and clicked immediately.

I've said before, almost every player recruited wants to be the next Andreya Carter. Jewel, with that personality, may actually do it.

Depends on whether or not she has the drive to put in the countless hours of preparation work that Andraya does. Carter is a bit of an analytical savant, IMO, and those are rare. Right now, as far as I can see, she is as good as anyone out there — female or male — and has the chops to hang with anyone.

Of course Kim’s offense allows you to pull up and shoot in rhythm with a green light for any good shot any time….

Not talking about shooting rhythm, talking about getting into the overall rhythm of the game.

Of course that’s a moot point when the purpose is never to let the game achieve an actual rhythm or flow. The ugly is the point, I get that.

Go watch the pressers. Completely different. You saw what you wanted to see. She was withdrawn a lot.

Maybe she’s taking this whole basketball thing a little more serious knowing how much work she has put in and this is her shot to contribute to something special.

I think she is for sure, but her environment is very different as well. You can tell there has been an obvious culture shift. They had to pry answers out of players in pressers the last few years. Now they are happily giving more than asked.

On the floor and off. Coaching effort is paying off for Kim.

UNC does the least with the most. $100 says we have a shot at several of those after they change course when Banghart is fired after this season. I think this is it for her. Don’t see it going well at all, they’re gonna miss the tournament.

You heard it here first.

Those rankings are going to change a lot between now and signing day.
I don’t see Coach Caldwell looking at players that she’s evaluated and moved on from for any reason to be honest.
There’s good players out there that’ll be in a LV uniform that fit the system.
Having two commits in the high school senior class at the early signing period has not happen since 2020-2021.
Nothing final at this point.
