She is number 11 in 2026 class would be a great start for Lady Vols and that class.

Might help if TN chooses Adidas

Is Iowa an Adidas school?

Same with Edwards. I’m not advocating Adidas based on overall appeal, but it appears TN is headed to Adidas and two elite LV targets are signed. Couldn’t hurt and Danny White could nudge Adidas for help with their kids.

No, they're Nike.

Especially since Adidas intends to make us their flagship program. IMO we are the perfect flagship because we are good at everything. There are at least 5 major sports off the top of my head that are in championship discussions almost every year.

where are you reading or hearing of who the players are?

Has scheduled an official visit to Tennessee.

Has scheduled an official visit to Tennessee.

October 11 - currently the last scheduled! Still working on setting her date for Texas, though.

Tennessee: “They’ve been recruiting me for a while. I definitely meshed with the coaching staff pretty well. I’m excited for my visit to get back up there again. I took an unofficial there earlier this year, so I’m excited to head back up there and get another feel for it.”

Interesting to see Oliviyah Edwards is now the #1 post, moving up two spots (and ahead of Vukosa) to #2 overall. She swapped spots with Harpring.

Crittendon is now in the top 10, up two spots to #9.

Interesting how there have been so few commits so far among this entire top 100. For years, many if not most had already made a verbal commit by summer. I wonder if all the different elements involved with NIL has led the players to be hesitant to commit early. I doubt if agents encourage early signings, as it would be easy for them to keep pursuing a better deal down road. Honestly, I prefer them not committing early than the many football players that do and then back off their verbal commitments later on due to NIL offered by a competitor.
