2025 Recruiting

[Mafiaboss]

Good rule of thumb for this mess - when recruits show you that they're more focused on their brands than on their game, you should believe them.

Agreed. And lower ranked players with grit are what we want over higher ranked players preoccupied with their bags.

Looks like the NIl money is on hand.

 

[knoxvol52]

Well, well, well..

BOOM....

 

[UTtoDC]

 

[VolFanGBO]

BOOM

 

[knoxvol52]

Mya must be a 4* and a Mia a 5* great start ..

 

[Volfan2012]

They are our players both are excellent point guards. I hope it works out great for them and for Tennessee.

 

[Volfan2012]

This might turn into a top ten class as I hear were working hard on Henderson. This was a good start sometimes all it takes is a commit like this to get things in high gear.

Welcome ladies!

 

[lvocd]

Heck yeah! Welcome to Rocky Top!

 

[StorrsCentral]

If the Georgia twins referenced are Kelly and Coco Miller, they graduated 23 years ago. Just posted to put it in perspective how time flies….

Yes, I was talking about the Miller twins. I knew it was more than 10, but 23? God, time really flies when you get old.

Lol all that complaining about NIL and the perceived attitude of these girls by some folks.

We have NIL. And I think this coaching staff can do a good job with personality management and not letting any sour apples ruin the whole thing. We'll see, but I'm gonna have faith rather than cast dispersions immediately.

Looks like someone dropped the ball...

REAKING: Five-star and four-star twins Mia Pauldo and Mya Pauldo have COMMITTED to the Lady Vols!

The two point guards from Denville, NJ are ranked as the #13 and #49 players in the Class of 2025 according to ESPN

Looks like someone took the ball went the other way for a two handed dunk!

 

[Real Info]

Boom! Let’s go! Perfect fit for what the Lady Vols will become. Fast, athletic, skilled, and tough.

 

[Weezer]

Sometimes I just read the posts and chuckle.

Getting a 5 star top 15 is a great accomplishment for the new staff. Symbolically it's exactly what they needed. Congratulation to them, hopefully she's the first olive out of the jar for finally recruiting in the top 20 pool.

Apparently this also answers NIL questions since that was openly stated as a big factor. We'll never know if they had it before, but it's reasonable to think they have it now. All good news.

 

[SGMVols]

Either Earl was lying to us, and we always had NIL, and the previous staff just did a poor job of closing

Or we really didn’t have NIL under the previous staff, but the new staff has been better at convincing people to donate.

But either way, it’s a negative mark on the previous staff.

All of this. Even if the NIL situation is better, CKC deserves her flowers for SEALING the deal! It’s her third month on the job and she already has two top-50 recruits.

 

[SGMVols]

Did the previous staff ever get a 5 star out of high school in their whole 5 years here? (Horston doesn’t count because she was inherited.)

Was Justine a 5 star? I can't remember.

And I'll die on the hill that KJH deserves credit for re-recruiting Horston and for her painstaking development.

 

[RAVOL]

Welcome Pauldo Sisters to Lady Vols. Great Job Staff in such short time on job. In CHRIST Alone

Justine was a 5 star. She was the only one (out of hs) though.
