Guard Alyssa Fressle is leaving Colorado. It doesn't appear to have to do with the coaching change.

"As Alyssa and I sat down during my first couple of days here, it was clear her heart was not with CU women's basketball and had not been for quite some time," Lappe said. "We want to wish Alyssa the best of luck in her future endeavors."

Kind of transfer tracker; U of Toledo Announces Addition of Two Student-Athletes for 2010-11. Anna Sonka, originally from Latvia, and Keneesha Lee, both JUCO transfers from Cowley County Com., Kansas. See www.UTRockets.com, Athletic Dept., 5/14/10 release.

http://www.michigandaily.com/content/freshman-guard-hollins-announces-intention-leave-program

“I have always been very close to my family, and I learned that I still need their support on a daily basis,” Hollins said in a statement released today through the Athletic Department. “It was hard for my mom to travel constantly to see me and be there for me and I feel it’s best for me to try and get closer to home.”

This is a huge blow for a Michigan program that just started turning the corner. Day was personal highlight reel. I expect she'll end up at Xavier, the team she surprised in her hometown by putting up 22 points in December.

UCF women's basketball players Emma Cannon and Marshay White will not return for the 2010-11 season, head coach Joi Williams announced Monday. Cannon and White will transfer to another school for their senior seasons.

I guess you could call it poaching, but then again, in a way so is recruiting out of high school.

College coaching is about recruiting, recruiting, recruiting and recruiting, and it would seem that a smart coach wouldn't stop recruiting once players went off to college. There are always significant talents that transfer, and the more of those you get, the better your team will be.

So is that poaching, or is it doing your job?

I think clay is right about that. I really believe in keeping relationship,what if the players has a teammate or friends that will fit into the program.You have to keep connections.

New Lady Rockets Signee

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Sarah Clark - Owens CC (Delphos St John's)
5-11 Guard

From Head Coach Tricia Cullop:

"Sarah Clark, 5’11” guard from Owens CC, just signed her NLI to play at UT next season. Sarah’s skill set reminds me much of Allie Clifton. She can shoot from behind the arc, post up, and crashes the boards hard. She is also a winner, helping lead Owens CC to a #6 NJCAA national ranking and 27-6 record. Sarah is an Ohio native, originally from Delphos St. John HS. She is most likely the final signee for the 2010-11 season."

You should do a little research before you make these kind of pronouncements. Heater was forced to come back from an injury before she was ready and has played in constant pain since. All articles indicate that she's very much at peace with her decision.

Div. 1 womens basketball isn't for everyone.

Whalen13 · Posted: 05/24/10 1:41 pm :::

I know all about the injury you cite and the concussions; I'm not sure what made you think I didn't (or that I didn't do "research").

At any rate, I just think it's a shame that she gave up a scholarship at one of the most prestigious public schools in the country. Perhaps it's because I'm in academia, but that's something I consider extremely valuable. Many people would "kill" for that opportunity.

Brenna states that she was still having short term memory loss because of her concussions, hardly the makings of a Cal student. What good is a full tuition if you can't even absorb the material. If the coaching staff did indeed force her back causing further complications, how could a player look to them for guidance and trust?

However, your suggestion that her decisions were made of youthful impetuousness were, in my mind, just flat out wrong. Her interviews tell of a young lady who hardly took the decision lightly but instead put great thought into it. Moreover, she says she's happy.

Just for the record, there are lots of Cal graduates who are hitting the unemployment line as well. Liberal Arts degree, anyone?

CalwbbFan · Posted: 05/25/10 8:56 am :::

I loved watching Brenna, if only briefly, during her time on the court at Cal. She did have a major ankle injury that required surgery her senior year in high school and didn't come to Cal during the summer as the other frosh do (beginning in July). I think she had to get into shape fast (which she appeared to do) but I'm sure it wasn't easy....

However, on another note, I also believe she has a boyfriend who was returning from Iraq or Afghanistan. They were high school sweethearts and have a belief that that also may have played a role in her decision to leave Cal.

I wish her well. Sometimes youthful decisions work out, sometimes they don't. Cal has extra scholarships at this point (despite keeping Tierra Rogers on one) so I don't think that would have been an issue....

Speaking of Tierra (OT) she is doing well. Finished up her freshman year and is now doing summer school at Cal. To me, that is the BEST story of the year in terms of Cal. To see her hang in there through what has been an emotional year of loss (on top of earlier loss) and to work hard in school, be captain of the team....says a lot about that young woman. Smile

On a side note, is there a state with as many Major and MidMajor schools as OH competing for a finite no# of in-state gbb players? We have OHSt, Xavier, Cinci, Dayton, Cleveland St, and all those OH MAC schools, w/o even mentioning DII, and JUCO's.
I know we do private dances of ecstasy when we are able to keep top local talent home. Maybe Indiana? If one of our stat gurus knows off the top of their charts, and has a moment, please share. Don't want to get off on lengthy tangent, just sincerely interested.

Brianna Jones pending transfer to Toledo.

Thanks, but this query arose during the recent(and on-going) conf. realignments, on a board I cannot recall. An OH college alum discussed the no# of DI schools in OH per population, vs most states, like Texas w/massive pop., and less DI's as a % of pop. vs OH.

An arguement was being made about possible reduction in so many DI schools in OH, both due to pop. changes, and to keep our DI's viable and competitive.

Thus the question I made, knowing several posters have access to stats like this.

Disregard this only vaguely transfer-related question. Seemed important at the time.
