Is there any word on Honesty Scott-Grayson? Her recruitment has been very quiet.

Last I heard about her was she has a list of 14 teams which did include Tennessee but nothing since. I would think she would narrow that list soon I thought some of the teams on her list would be gone before us. I know UConn is on there and SC and you would think us and those two would at least make her top five.

They say Uconn quit recruiting her.

Question for you guys? Do you think after winning the National Championship and losing Davis, Gray and Wilson after the 2018 season will land South Carolina the #1 recruiting class from 2018/19 and possibly taking some of our prospects who were thinking about committing to Tenn? Been kind of worried about this the past couple of days. She can offer them instant playing time not to mention show off her National Championship ring and she's very heavily involved with the USA Olympic basketball team. This is why I hope next year Tennessee can get back to the old Tennessee we became accustomed to under Pat.

I am more concerned about how we do this upcoming year with the talent we have. I have little concern over USC taking recruits away from us. If we can maintain a top ten team, during next year, and do not have several bumps in the road, like losing to two or three unranked teams, we will be able to recruit with any of the other top teams. Not every great player is going to choose the Lady Vols. I believe that Diamond and Russell are committed and want to win a championship. Successful teams breeds successful recruiting.

Again the Lady Vol goal and expectations is to win the SEC and get to the FF. Like last year and the year before that we have the talent to make that happen. We beat the National Champion and runner up last year so to me it's all about team chemistry and Coach! that will determining how far we go.

So playing time should be an easy sale for us now 😊

Yup because you lose 3 for sure at the end of the season (Mercedes, Dunbar, and Nared) and could lose a 4th if she has a breakout season (Green).

You would return the lone senior (MeMe), the lone junior (Harris) and the 4 sophomores (KK, Hayes, Westbrook, and Davis) for a total of 6 players returning and the 2 who have already verbally committed (Massengil and MiMi Collins) for a total of 8 (I know there could be transfers or the verbals could reopen their commitments) which means we could still add at the minimum 4 more for a total of 12 and if Green should return for her senior year that's a bonus.

I think Green shocks everyone like Amanda Zui B did at Minnesota and found herself in a position to leave college early because she had a mock draft position as a Top 5 pick and she ended up going 2nd behind Jewell Loyd.

Take that one off of the list!!!!! Christin Williams, Honesty Scott Grayson, Jani Crooms, Jordan Nixon, will we get any of these ladies ? 🙏

However, I would take DeCosta and Ododa and call it a day!!!! 😁

I think DeCosta and Williams will end up at the same school, they have formed a bond playing on the 3on3 team together and they are both being coached by Kara Lawson on that team.

I think Williams will be deciding between us and UConn and DeCosta will be deciding between us and Louisville

Which means you think that we will wind up with both Williams and DeCosta.
I'm hopeful but doubtful that we get both.

DeCosta had a relationship with Westbrook!!! I hope that helps ? The two schools that they both list are UT and Baylor! That could be a big win for Baylor!
They could join our #1 recruits and make it two #1 classes in a row. I wish Lawson could influence but I don't think she would cross that line ??

What if Lawson takes the assistants job and brings them both with her???🙏

Williams is very high on Baylor.

That could be a problem? Baylor is doing better than us right now and a lot closer than Tennessee! (For Decosta and Williams)

I don't think Westbrook friendship with her will overcome this 3on3 European trip ????

Looks like Baylor maybe getting richer!
