Who says you can win big with freshmen?  The Fab five were pretty good and we have what is close to Fab Five coming in. Not sure if they can defend like Vic wants. Going to trust one of the best coaches in the game. HOOK em

I would love to see this group of talented freshmen become the WCBB version of the Fab Five at some point, but with the way agents and the portal works, who knows if all of them will stick around?  I hope they do because they will all be fantastic players in college, and hopefully the WNBA.  Still need to find at least veteran frontcourt player in the portal imo.

I agree. One more front court player for when Brea gets in foul trouble.

So I guess the rumor of Breya convincing Jada Williams not to come to Texas was not true?

I Can't imagine she would still be here if she had.

[Califashorn75]

She doesn't strike me as being that kind of person. Her development here has been obvious. One more year, and she might get a shot at the W. She needs a mid range jumper. She's built like Aaliyah Boston of the Fever who just signed the largest contract in WNBA history.

We'll see.

She's not as big as Jordan Lee, but can hit the outside shot and is a dog.

Coach doing some recruiting. Don’t know who this is.

That’s only Big O, the biggest unsigned recruit in the nation.

Vic, close the deal!

Oliviyah Edwards has reopened her recruitment after being granted a release from her National Letter of Intent with Tennessee.

Sara is still helping with recruiting. Vic is really trying to get that 5th year for her. Good to see Preston. I heard last week she was staying. This is a good sign. 

[HonkEm]

Tilda Trygger has committed to Washington.

[Califashorn75]

Wow! So happy Bri chose to stay. She's the starter.

Still find the Lee portal free a head scratcher.    Hate to lose her but excited to have Vann join the Horns!!

According to someone on the other site, rumor was that Lee’s father was looking for a big payday.  SC puts a lot of $ behind their women’s bball because most their other sports aren’t going to compete for championships.

I concur that hate to lose Lee, but am excited to see what Vann can do.

Texas offered Lee an increase in NIL before she hit the portal and she still said no. TCU also offered her 600,000. She didn’t even visit. SC did not offer more than that.
 

SC WBB doesn’t have more NIL than Texas. This isn’t MBB- Texas WBB is one of only 5-7 programs that truly invest and spend on WBB.
