You see this and womder what in the world happened with this player? That two years at Arkansas were very detrimental to her career. She should've been an inside player from day one or at least a stretch four.

I heard it was something like she was a 5'9 guard as a freshman in high school and grew to 6'5 by the time she started college. During her growth spurt, she seemed to lose all of her guard skills (shooting, ball handling...even free throw shooting). Her skills never grew into her new body.

Yeah didn’t get developed quite right. Should have been developed into a stretch 4 as soon as she started growing.

They were insistent on her being a point/forward type player but she didn’t have any of the skills for that.

And that is exactly right. She was 5’8” as a freshman’s and 6’3” by her junior year. Crazy growth spurt for a girl, see that with boys all the time but usually not that late or that drastic with girls.

She listens to her coach.....This is good.
If she comes here, there's lots of possibilities with this one.....
Can't teach 6'5"....

Well with Fulwiley disputing the LSU visit rumors maybe she's still open, and maybe we do have a chance... Gosh could you imagine, if we were to land Fulwiley and Judd, with this existing portal and HS class, we would be a very deep talented balanced roster who could compete in SEC and MM.

If Fulwiley came would you all have enough minutes and balls to go around?

That’s exactly what happened. I watched Jersey in high school and 1 year she was short as hell and the next, tallest player on the floor by a mile! Her high school team still had her playing point until she graduated.

If Jersey can give us what she gave LSU at around to maybe a little more minutes, then she is a net pickup. In less minutes per game, she did average more than Latham, Boyd, and Jill with the same average as Puckett. She also had 24 blocks for LSU which would have been second on our team and more than Zee had. I think this is a solid depth piece and gives us someone with some length to throw at the Texas, LSU, and Kentuckys in addition to Zee, Barker, and Latham.

We only had Hollingshead, Adoyele last season replaced with Barker and Wolfenbarger I think that is upgrading the roster by a lot inside.
Puckett , Darby, Strickland, and Wells we have Prawl, Civil, Robertson, Mya Pauldo and Hurst
Spencer replaced by Mia Pauldo

Returnees Spearman, Whitehorn, Cooper, Boyd, Latham, and Wynn


We have some uproven players, but very talented so we'll have to see how they work out. Some freshmen will hit the ground running and others will take some time to develop. Overall the roster as a whole is far more talented both offensively and defensivly than last season.

I agree, I think the roster is definitely upgraded. The only thing I’m nervous about is shooting! We shot a ton of 3s last year, and I don’t know the percentage, but losing the 3 players that accounted for most of the makes, will be tough!

With Janiah B on board, I’m ok with the addition of Jersey. She really just needs to help hold down the fort when we have foul trouble - which I think she is very capable of. Can’t teach 6-5.

If Kim and Roman can help develop her a bit this summer, our post rotation will be pretty strong.

We went 32.6 percent as a team. Most of the three point shooting is dependent on freshmen. Mia Pauldo 45 percent, Mya Pauldo 40 percent, Lauren Hurst 40 percent. Robertson 33 percent, Civil 32 percent. I think Prawl goes about 35 percent. Whitehorn 30 percent Cooper 27 percent

So were really depending on those freshmen to do what they did in high school. Mia Pauldo made 289 threes. Mya 158 a lot less games because of injury. Judd would give you another 37 percent shooter if she decides for us. Barker I think is a career 34 percent. Spearman 30. So we have the potential to be much better only time will give us that answer.

One good thing is that everyone’s three point percentage did go up last year from the previous year except for Puckett. If some of them can improve even slightly more and/or the new players can shoot a tad better, you might be able to get to where we need to be. Would still like one more reliable shooter though.

The biggest difference is team speed, I mean Puckett and Darby were decent players but they did not fit the system. I’d argue Hollingshed as well.

This incoming group will be able to press and run so much better.

With Coach Kim in control, the LVs are becoming alive again....The line shifts and full tilt game chaos, even brought down UConn, the eventual national champion...

Through the portal, she is putting on the finishing touches that will make the LVs experience even more exciting for us Lady Vols fans.
