  1. With the portal and NIL, there's just so much talent available. It will lead to more roster cuts/processing or whatever you want to call it. The portal works both ways and it's a business.
  2. The timing can’t be coincidental after the Iosia transfer either. We all talked about Texas needing to get better at libero/DS and this with Fleck would be a substantial upgrade. If this happens I think Iosia was almost certainly shown the door but that’s just me speculating.
  3. Oh, I’m not denying it could happen but just saying “crazy” more in reference to Texas getting that quality of player this late and a position of need. Texas has to be throwing NIL money around the way they are recruiting in the portal in women’s bball, volleyball, track and field, etc.
  4. Yeah, she's just not that great at anything other than sitting at the 3 point line and hitting some shots. It looks like she's in better shape but still looks out of shape to me. I'm pretty sure that's all she was at South Carolina in limited minutes. They just put her in the corner and told her don't do anything else.
  5. She was probably processed. South Carolina can land whoever they want right now.
  6. Destiny Littleton is back in the portal. She won a title but hardly played at South Carolina. I had a feeling that was coming.
  7. I hope we land Fields but there are still lots of good guards in the portal. Just so much legit talent in the portal.
  8. It already looks like Masudi is being recruited over. If Texas lands Faye they have 5 "bigs" that are probably getting minutes over her. Jones, Gaston, Moore, Faye, and Muhammad.
  9. I wouldn't be totally surprised if Ott is actually a candidate for one of these assistant coaching positions. He has a pretty big rep in the AAU and TABC circles. I think Cedar Park has won 62 games in a row. He also plays a very similar style as Schaefer. Defensive minded with full court pressure.
  10. Also of note, that Cedar Park team has a '25 guard (Tatum Ott) that's probably going to be a big name recruit. I think the head coach at Cedar Park is her uncle.
  11. If you could build a prototype of what Schaefer likes Maul would be pretty close to it. I would have been shocked if Schaefer wasn't recruiting her. She's physical and tough. I know she's a guard but she actually plays like a PF. Cedar Park puts her in the post a lot and says "let's see if you can stop her."
  12. Jones is a significant upgrade over Ebo. She's only 6'3 or 6'4 but she has like a 7'0 wingspan. Apparently, she's able to dunk but never done it in a game. Texas had no rim protector that even comes close to Jones this past season. I don't think people know how good Jones is. She's a better rebounder, rim protector, and has more offensive game than any big Texas had last season.
  13. You should never worry about numbers in the portal era. Players are going to leave and be pushed out because there are just too many good players in the portal to not be active. Taylor Jones has been done for weeks and a big reason Lattimore is leaving IMO. This is just how the game works now.
  14. She’s a top 20 recruit in the country. I don’t care where she’s ranked. Almost everyone in the country wanted her.
  15. I think Allen-Taylor may return. She’s participating on SR day but if you read her and Schaefer’s comments it makes it sound like she’s far from decided on the next move.
  16. That's the most Bama result ever. They've now lost to Iona, Memphis (when they were sucking), Davidson, Missouri, Georgia and aggy. I'm not sure there's been a more bipolar team in college basketball.
  17. Funny thing is I'm not sure this is even the normal Shaka late season decline. Marquette just ran into some massive luck early in the season with Illinois and K-State playing without their best players. Seton Hall was also really banged up in their 1 point loss against them. Reality is this is just a .500ish team if you take away the early season luck.
  18. Shaka should be thanking the basketball gods. They beat K-State by 1 in a game where K-State didn't have their best player in Pack. They beat Illinois by 1 in a game where Illinois didn't have their best player in Cockburn. If you flip those two Q1 wins to losses and Marquette is a bubble team.
  19. Somebody should compile a list of players that FWK has been closely linked to and how many had major issues.
  20. McKinley Jackson is actually good. That's the difference.
  21. I'm really interested how this roster plays out because I think one and maybe even two of Allen-Taylor, Ebo, and Warren might run this back next year. No clue how the scholarships are going to work though.
  22. Their non-conference schedule is truly awful so they will probably stack some wins but they've already screwed themselves with this Penn series loss. All they could do in non-conference was avoid bad losses which is already out the window. They're going to get embarrassed in the SEC though. Alabama was picked to finish 7th in the SEC West and I think they're much better than aggy.
  23. aggy is really bad this year in baseball. They should have lost 1 to Fordham and 2 of those games were close. Fordham was spanked this weekend by V-Tech who won't even be a regional team. My guess is aggy won't even make the SEC tournament this year in baseball (like last season).
  24. Schloss is a good coach but Saarloos was arguably the best assistant in college baseball. Schloss made 1 CWS without Saarloos and 4 with him. I'm interested to see how this works without Saarloos.
