2025 Transfer Portal

That’s a great point and as you said it’s certainly a marker that a team in this system with this level of talent can reach.
In the NCAA tourney, in those two wins the team averaged 91.5 ppg.
Those are remarkable numbers for any team. Against Texas, we started the 4th qtr tied at 50-50.
Turnovers with 9 coming in the 4th qtr hindered any chances at a run to come out of that game with the win.
Had we reached 70 points in that game which we missed by just 11 points it would’ve been enough to get to the Elite 8 in year 1.
When you are as detailed oriented, knowledgeable, and naturally gifted as a coach as CKC the blueprint she is building from doesn’t show up in the mindset of the average fan. She ain’t building with no role players, the 5 McDAAs in addition to 6 Top 70 players and portal class is built for battle and bound to win their fair share.
And 97 points a game is certainly a way to obtain those goals on her mission. I’m very impressed and I wouldn’t bet against her.
 
Surprised at this. Thought they were set once Pierre stayed. Someone remind me, what kind of recruiting class does Shea have coming in?

Wonder if Justine hangs around.
Moore probably doesn't want to be the #3 scoring option in her final year when she could be the #2 or #1 option on another offense-minded team. She's already proven herself in the SEC and now wants some gaudy stats to get a shot at a WNBA roster.

As has been posted earlier, Vandy does not have the courses she needs to pursue/complete her Master's degree, so I don't think it's what you're saying at all.
 
I can’t see this player as a #1 or #2 option on many teams in a Power-4 conference but she can provide offensive scoring that’s true.

That might be the case, I have no inside info. But I'll wait until we find out where she winds up before I'll accept that conclusion.
 
You putting words in a posts. I was specifically talking about Florida State, Florida, Mississippi State, and Ohio State from a year ago.
You take everything out of context. For the most, the players that many have pushed for Coach Caldwell to sign are players that she has seen in the past year that may not be an ideal fit to her system.
She knows this better than you or I could ever dream of in terms of building a roster.
She may or may have not seen a player from Utah play in person but that has nothing to do with the facts.
She seen Florida State in person coaching at Tennessee.
She seen Florida in person when coaching at Marshall and Tennessee. She seen Mississippi State in person at Tennessee.
She seen Ohio State in person. What does Glenville State have to do with?
Please review your original post and tell me where you identify specific players at specific schools that CKC has supposedly seen in person.
 
I don't think so not in year one. If they get someone with two three years left they may develop then into someone that could be a big help. I think there were like ten that could help immediately and looks like they are all going to already loaded teams.

The strange thing about all this is some of those coaches proclaimed how they hated the portal. Now they are going out there and trying to get every top player in it. I don't blame them, but why hate something your a big part of particiapting in.
Mis. In. For. Ma. Tion.

Barker is good but def has a scary head. Ole Miss?

I think there’s a very good possibility the silence around portal recruitment is a choice and doesn’t mean there isn’t any. Kim seems very close to the vest.

Also true the best players are going off the boards every day many to our closest competitors
I guarantee she has a plan, she will
Not leave those scholarships empty. May not be who we want or the elite players though
 


Had to dig up some Janiah Barker highlights. This is her soph year in the SEC. Her skillset is perfect for this system. She just needs coaches that can help polish up some areas of her game. Would love to see coach Roman work with this kid.

Make the phone call.

Word is she already has a final 3. TN isn't one of them. LSU, NC, and UConn .
