I'm going to go out on a limb here and say getting Judd and Siberry means the chance of getting Kneepans is slim to none.

If 94 Feet is to be believed, it’s not us or South Carolina. UCLA or OU. Better offenses for her. Maybe we can convince Phelia to stay

I ain't saying she committed or is committing to us.  But it's a good sign that there is some late interest/movement?

Yep. It beats crickets, no doubt.

Lips to my tip routinely makes my day, as well.

Also, @Js1, I first read that as "my new tits" and thought congratulations were in order for you.

Pivoting away from Kneeps and my non-new tits, the signing of Sidberry + Carlton staying makes me think A-Mo is done with ball, or thinking about it, depending on how summer workouts go. 

I don't think Texas signs a PF (even with Jak leaving) if they felt comfortable with a Moore/Carlton tandem at the 4 next year.  Now you're looking at a Sidberry/Carlton combo for a traditional PF spot, with the ability to go smaller with Booker/Crump at the 4.

Kneeps to UCLA. At least it ain’t OU or South Carolina 

Damn. I hope we can convince Phelia not to transfer (unless it's an inability to get medically clear here). We need the three-point shooting!

Ooofff that new Dawn Staley statue looks like garbage 

I’m also glad she went to LA instead of Norman. 

I want it to be Chavez and 4 scrubs on the floor.

Judd is a 3 point threat as is incoming freshman Aaliyah Crump. Vic needs to create more sets where Booker and Lee shoot the 3. They’re percentages were good last season, but they didn’t take it often enough.

Yep, and most players take a step forward in year 2.  Lee shot nearly 40% as a freshman, when she was not expected to play as much as she did.  She was supposed to come in behind Phelia/Holle. 

Crump got that stroke

Well it won't be 4 scrubs, as they do return Beers and Verhulst.  Verhulst is #15 in The Athletic's 2026 draft prospects and Beers was honorable mention

I agree this is all true. I laid that out in more detail on page 97. However, ideally, we'd have three or four of five players on the court be credible threats from distance at any given time. That may just be my basketball strategy bias, but it's where the game is nowadays - especially when shooting percentages for good three-point shooting guards are close to their overall fg percentage. It just makes statistical sense to create more looks from beyond the arc. Combine that with Texas' ability on the offensive glass, as well as typically winning the TO battle, and you can create more of a point spread shooting more threes. Again, I'm hopeful this is the direction Vic is looking given who has targeted in the portal this offseason.

Apparently on the list for UCF G/F Emely Rodriguez 

Rodriguez is young and intriguing as a rotational get, but for now I don't see her as more than that for Texas. Not a real sharpshooter and had roughly twice as many turnovers as assists last season. Granted, that UCF squad was weak, so without watching all her tape it's unfair to question her floor skills under game conditions. If Texas has interest, she must not be a traffic cone on D.

A-Mo will miss the entire season

I assumed she wasn’t coming back, so I’m glad we got Sudbury and Carlton stayed

I love AMo but hard to see her sitting out another year and coming back and being in shape and productive. That's a long time from now.

I guess I'm just tired of unproductive roster spots. Hope it works out but I've got my doubts.

Lengthy article,  Vic has comments on the new additions. (excerpt)

Quote

"We'd like to get potentially one more guard, if possible, or a difference player," Schaefer said. "There's only a select few that meet that criteria. It's not like we're just going to go get anybody. We're not. We're going to get people that can either make an impact and help us or we just won't go after them."

(someone said she’s taking Johntay Cook so lol)

Why do I think that wasn’t the best move for her.

The whole thing with her transfer seems off. Waiting until the last day to declare, after telling Danny Davis she was excited about playing at Texas next year? Strange…

Iyana Moore’s top 4 is Texas, UCLA, Duke,  ND

And it’s ND

Guessing we are done then. That UCF guard picked Iowa
