Charlie Collier verbals to UConn.

"Coach [Geno] Auriemma and his staff are amazing people. Spending time with them and the team, seeing the chemistry that is there indicated to me that this was it. |

Very interesting that a Kentucky kid chose Colorado ...
Maybe the West Coast pipeline to the East Coast can be reversed.

Her older sister, Alexis, is a sophomore starter for Colorado this season. She was recruited by our former coach, and I'm glad to see Coach Payne in her first season was able to continue the relationship with her family. Alexis is currently tied for second on Colorado in scoring and HoopGurlz had her ranked 91st coming out of high school. Landing the #13 recruit in 2018 is certainly a huge get for the program.

Buffs are also working very hard to land Cameron Swartz of Marietta, GA. She's made several unofficial visits of CU.
Also are working on Danielle Cosgrove of Farmingville, NY.
Spend time in Boulder and at CU and you'll see that it shouldn't be too hard to recruit coast to coast.

I was thinking that given the rise of the Pac-12 from the last of the football conferences, to now be considered the top by RPI, that less West Coast players were going east. But I guess there could be other explanations, like more talent on the West Coast than there used to be. Or more Midwest or East Coast players going west.

Don't understand how Tenn keeps getting these good recruits. They do nothing with them. Don't players see that?

Maybe because they see a great opportunity to play for a prestigious program. Plenty of room considering they don't have a very deep bench. Maybe they're pretty impressed with elite 8 appearances and wanna help get further? Maybe they believe in a plan to get TN back to FFs. Maybe they're looking forward in joining the 2017 #1 ranked recruiting class?
TN's getting the players to do just that. Those condemning Holly and staff are just joining the bandwagon of those who don't know squat about this team.

TN currently has really good players. Yes, two straight Elite Eights, but when was the last final four? Losing regularly to teams like Penn State and Va. Tech? Holly has for the most part underachieved with the talent she's gotten - why should 2017/2018 be any different?

Penn St put up a good fight against Maryland. Can't sleep on VTech. But I'm not sure Warlick is gonna get much better than she is now. If the fans love her I guess they should keep her.

Realistically, CHW is not going anywhere if she keeps making the E8's. Sharrona Reeves is doing a tremendous job as the new recruiting coordinator. I think a new post coach would help as well. However, I don't think all of Tenn's recent decline can be put on the coaching staff. I doubt CHW is telling her players to miss layups and stand around flat-footed on defense. Just having a full roster so she can bench players who don't want to work will be a big step in the right direction as will the graduation of Deshields.

You are simplifying it too much as if only a Final 4 matters. Maybe they recruited the kid the hardest? Recruiting is a lot about relationships, also you say Tennessee lost in the Elite 8's, its not like Massengill has UConn and Baylor after her, for all you know Tennessee may be the best team that really wants her. Or she has geographical demands and wants to stay within a certain radius of her hometown so her family can watch her game. Vandy fired their coach so they were going to be recruiting from behind for this class anyways. Look at it from a teenagers perspective, the facilities and all of the championships they have must impress a kid when they go on a visit. Let's not act like she committed to East Tennessee State or something which by your multiple posts sounds like you are shocked some top 25-50 recruit from Tennessee picked Tennessee.

Maybe she'll be better then Mulkey OU and the other tall kid from Virginia. Wasn't expecting her to travel across the Country to OSU. |

She at least looks proportional - not like a stick or a lunk. Grymek looks a bit lunk like. Rueck will come up to these girls' waistbands, but if they buy into his system, he will make them both into players if anybody can.

Came down to Kentucky, South Carolina and Purdue. She wants engineering and claimed academics were very important. Um, ok. Kentucky isn't a bad school, but when it comes to engineering, it isn't even close between Purdue and those other 2. However, mom did play in the SEC and they live in SEC country so clearly basketball won out.

She also dropped Ga Tech just a week earlier.
I always enjoy these types of announcements. Academics are really important to me and I want to be an engineer, so I'm dropping Georgia Tech and Purdue and committing to Kentucky.
Ummmmmmm. . . .yeah, ok, congratulations.

Not necessarily. I offer this example, even though I know it's guys and was a long time ago (60s). My NAIA college had a starting lineup that played most of the game of a 6'11 center, forwards who were 6'8 and 6'7, and guards who were 6'3 and 5'8. They won every conference game and lost the regionals by only 1 point. They were really amazing. The whole squad had 2 players under 6 feet, both PGs, and one of those was 5'11.
