Interesting hire.

Kyndal Walker (point guard out of Maryland) might be a good fit for Tennessee. She is a hard-nosed point guard who is also a reasonably safe pair of hands. Her numbers don't look like much but she definitely got better as the season progressed. The Terps pressed quite a bit this past season and...

They will recycle the Comets moniker. If nothing else, it has four championships associated with the name.

Great hire for the Wildcats. Berube definitely has the coaching chops, the question is whether she will be able to go head-to-head with the big boys in recruiting. She did a creditable job of attracting quality players (who were also able to meet fairly stringent academic requirements) to...

I don't know. I would think that both Denise Dillon (Villanova) and Lindsay Edmonds (Rice) would be in greater demand than Laroque just based on recent success.

Probably true but Rutgers is not a bad job. While the available NIL budget is likely limited, the area around New York/New Jersey is rife with talent. Actually, given that Rutgers football is a perennial loser, I would think that building up the basketball program (both men's and women's) is a...

Yes, Kubek is a significant loss. She really seemed to thrive towards the end of the season (especially in the NCAA Tournament). I don't think that she was happy with the prospective timeshare with Merkle in the post. Maryland also has two redshirt forwards who will be competing for playing...

At no point did anyone officially connected with Maryland indicate that Okananwa signed with the Terps. If anything, the consensus among Terp supporters is that since the player left College Park without a commitment, getting her to sign with the team was highly unlikely. In any case, Maryland...

Purely as a guess, I would say Sa'Myah Smith. She is rumored to have signed for $300K. Virginia seems like an underwhelming destination for her, but a bag full of sweet, sweet, green is as good an explanation for her choice as any.

Morrow was successful against elite competition in the college game, I think her skills and motor will translate in the W. All the more so because she actually has a perimeter game. Time will tell. Iriafen is talented but the 'Stics already have Edwards, who they drafted last year, and who is...

The whole league discounted Sundell because she isn't flashy. Even if she doesn't make it in Seattle, I am certain that she will eventually have a decent career in the W if she sticks with trying to make the league. Sundell is actually a better passer and a more accurate shooter than Amoore. And...

Hey Dark Phoenix, turns out that you were correct. Mea Culpa. That said, I cannot understand how the Mystics passed on Morrow with all three of their first round picks. They now have two, near identical, forwards neither of whom is a credible outside threat. In addition, they used the third...

I don't think that there is any way that the Mystics pass on Aneesah Morrow for either Kiki Iriafen or Sonia Citron. Don't get me wrong, both Citron and Iriafen have nice games but Morrow has proven that, undersized or not, she is a beast on the boards with quality offensive moves against all...

I think that Shyanne Sellers at 6 is based on her being fully healthy (which she hasn't been since January). She played the second half of the season with a knee injury that limited her to under 75% effectiveness. She hobbled through the B1G and NCAA Tournaments with 1 to 2 weeks of rest before...
