2020 HoopGurlz Recruiting Rankings - espnW 100 - ESPN

Yes but she is not one of the slow footed ones. She was rated number 14 in the 2020 class and had a 98 rating. She is plenty quick can pass, get to the basket and shoot the three. If we have a chance to get her I know we won't hesitate. She is an exceptional player that will be a lot better in the right system with the right coach.

Not saying she not a good player...Going by the flim not what i read on her i feel there are better options that fit what we need was not impressed with anyone on their roster....WELLS,KENNEDY TODD-WILLIAMS, JADA WALKER athletes that get after it and create there own n for others

6 point per game and shooting 38% overall is not someone who will play much here. Plus a 50% free throw shooter. I would much rather get a scorer in the portal. I’m not saying she’s a bad player, just not something we need.

We have a junior starter in Tess with 7.4 pts, 41.9% playing 20+ mins a game. Is that slight difference the threshold? Don’t disagree on needing scorers but we have starters not meeting what you set. If a spot is there she’s a look based on now depth and down the road.

Tennessee can correct their wrongs and bring home the 2 best players in East Tennessee in a long time. Avery and Denae. Both have 3 years left. Would be a nice class with Justine

That’s surprising on Fritz as her parents are Iowa State grads. I could see her back at Belmont where she was originally committed to.

I agree, I think her development at Iowa State got over shadowed by Joens. They put all their eggs in her basket for 5 seasons and she clearly got most of the coaching.

I agree a lot of their offense was to pass to Joens let her dribble it around for 15 to 20 seconds and take a shot. They seem to make her the key of the offense sometimes it worked and sometimes it didn't.

Looking at that list, it is pretty wild that over half of the top 25 have transferred or are currently in the portal. I guess that's why high school recruiting matters less than it previously did.

If you can get some of them the second time around. We hit it really lucky that Jackson decided to return and will be even more lucky if Tamari is able to return to full health. We need some high quality players with at least a couple years to play.

Cora Hall is so great!

This sounds like Rennie is done - I didn't realize that was definitely the case (not that she's played much anyway).

I think I heard before the season started that she wanted to graduate and then go back to home to be a policeman. I guess we'll find out soon enough. We have the scholarships regardless.

Agree. Wherever possible, I'd like us to go for younger players. We will be a heavily Jr/Sr team and only Tess has a covid yr left. Justine will need a friend in a couple of years.

TK's experience this year should motivate her to be in the best shape of her life. She will definitely be heavily monitored and cared for physically. I'm wishcasting a really solid season for her and a feelgood story Carolyn Peck cannot repeat enough of next year. A solid 8-10 pts, 6 or 8 rebounds and a gazillion blocks a game from her would be huge for us.

I don’t know if it’s possible but if a big time center enters the portal, we need to get her and Key can be a backup.

I’ve aAtched some film on her and she’s not slow, she a 6’0 pg that can score and defend, I would plug her into the starting Pg position right away.

We need another center if possible or one in the 2024 class. Striplin and Puckett are really fours but we had to use Striplin at the five sometimes it was tough on defense when she went up against big centers. We'll have Tamari and Jill could use another one if available. We need a couple guards could work in Wynn and Miles a few minutes if they work this summer and show they can handle the time in a effective way. I'd feel fine with any of Wells, Donarski, or Walker or someone yet unknown. Kennedy Todd Williams is a unique player that can be a power player or a perimeter player with a great three point shot. She would be ideal for the three even if we already have players at that position. I think we'd be a very capable team with something like Key. Jackson, Williams, Donarski, and Wells. That is really an elite perimeter game and Jackson really benefits with a big like Key in the game. I know Darby has been starting, but I have to think signing Wells, Donarski, and Williams would have to push her to the seven or eight spot in the rotation as all those players are just better than she can ever be.

So far I would take Donarski and Kiki Jefferson and put them at the 1&2 guard, I think that’s a final four lineup.
