We have 2-3 times the NIL money which helps. Sam got us a lot on a lot of finalists lists but we lost out on a few simply because we couldn't meet a NIL offer from another school. Now we can. But we also have a system that is appealing to a lot of players and obviously a coaching staff that resonates with recruits, even in a short amount of time. A lot of things going for us that I think a lot of people didn't expect... at least not right away. I certainly was a skeptic at least with how fast Kim and staff could have success at HS recruiting level. They have knocked it out of the park so far!

I get that we are disappointed in her results as a coach but she did win three nattys as a player for us, including one just a few months after blowing out her knee, so maybe we can just be a little more respectful of her. I mean do what you want but I feel like it's worth mentioning/reminding.

Holy smokes. Again, I leave long enough to go to the bathroom and look what happens!

Well, that'll teach you to go to the bathroom before recruiting season is over.
From now on, you'll just have to hold it.

But if your bathroom trips are what it takes to keep the blue-chip players coming, then I hope you have diarrhea.

This is something I really would like to know about. Everyone fought and spit over the NIL support (or seeming lack thereof, especially from the big NIL collectives, who supposedly would not assist at all) over the last five years, and how that support level compares to the current level of support (both in financial totals and impact to recruiting attitudes).

I'm not saying the money is the sole reason for this turnaround. I couldn't say to what extent it is. But all of a sudden, five star players want to come to Tennessee again - and before UT's even made a statement on the court? From a coach who hasn't won at the highest level yet? Was it really just the last coach? Or was some of it - more than some might want to admit - the lack of NIL money? A question I would love to have an informed answer for.

Did they win a championship or not? You said you can't win one without a center, and I proved you wrong. Our bigs have to play big I agree, but you can win without one. I think Latham plays bigger than her size. We need others to do the same.

Yea, I got you but can we agree they was able to win because they played through Angel through the post. That’s with every championship team you see the game being won through the post Cordosa, Boston, Brink, Brown, Aja and so on.

I am really happy about the Jaida Civil signing, She is rising star recruit who will be a great fit for the CKC's system.

She stands at 6-feet tall and is a very athletic player who excels in transition and has a nice touch around the rim and a reliable jump shot.
