2027 Lady Vols Recruiting

[chuckiepoo]

I realize you have me blocked and cannot read my posts () but please do explain the meaning of paragraph format (are you speaking of normal English dictation which is written in paragraphs instead of long run-on sentences?) I’m all ears. I won’t tell anyone that you can actually read my stuff….

It’s delicious! Have another splash of salted butter…

Great, who turned this thread into a how to write a paragraph class.? Good grief.

This one hurts a little no lie. Eve reminds me a lot of a young Gwen Jackson with a little of Tina Charles. Oh well hopefully we find dynamic bigs for 2027 class since we lost out on her.

Thanks posting the update. I still want Jada Jackson. She's a duel sport athlete in hoops and track. I think with her athletism and ability to play both sides she could fit in a Caldwell system.

Welcome to the forum!

Thank. I look forward to posting more.

No, I’m not explaining anything. Your constant need to go back and forth is evident when I can see you frequently quote my post(s) which I can see when I’m not logged into VolNation (I don’t have to be signed in to read threads). I then log back into my account to reply if that’s okay with you.
You take this forum too serious.
In all seriousness, I said what I said. 8 McDonald’s All-Americans, 8 5-star Top 1-20 recruits and 7 4-star Top 30-60 recruits that once they click
will be as good as any Top 5-10 team just as they were last season when they ran the eventual national champions off the court on Rocky Top. The same UConn team that blew out South Carolina twice.
GBO.

My bad, the whole paragraph thingy is overrated anyway man.

I know you can take as many visits as you like these days, but I still find some of these visits a little strange for her. Maybe she surprises everybody with who she signs with in that class.

Louisville has a good program and a great game atmosphere so that wouldn’t be a mind blowing pick. She plays in front of larger crowds in HS than she would at Syracuse or Cal however.

Actually, that's pretty close. Syracuse has been drawing under 3,000 per game the last couple of years for what's been a not very good team. "ESPN’s latest bracketology update currently projects the Orange as a “Last Four In." (Source) On the other hand, Special K plays for Ontario Christian High School in California, which opened a new athletics center in 2021 that seats 1500.

I was being a bit tongue in cheek, but you are spot on again as usual. She plays and has played in front of larger crowds for some of her tournaments with team USA and AAU/All Star events. I think she is the best pure PG player by far in her class and one of the best in recent memory for HS players. Which ever school lands her will be fortunate. I have watched many of her games and she just strikes me as a cut above. I think Kaleena is a game changer type of player, just my opinion of course. She might even be a phenom type like JuJu as far as the impact she can make. I’m old school and still believe the PG position is the most important on the court.

Cal btw has averaged under 1500 in attendance per game. http://fs.ncaa.org/Docs/stats/w_basketball_RB/2023/Attend.pdf

And probably some bigger crowds in state tournament games. But Syracuse? Cal? There has got to be some big money talking here.

And, yup. PGs are important. We're seeing it this year. Caitlin Clark. Others. There are a lot of players that can help you win if you get them the ball where they need it when they need it. Not to mention the pressure a PG who can shoot outside and drive (as Special K can) puts on a defense.
