I laugh a bit about beating another play out for a spot at training camp. I'm not sure what that even means. There's much more at issue when it comes to the selection committee picking the team. I've had the good fortune to attend a couple of world cups (Istanbul in 2014 and Tenerife 2018)...

As I posted yesterday, it may take a few days but Skim has yet to miss.

Vol fans upset believing this means Gray was bound for Knoxville but for not retaining Williams. A bit delusional. Williams's hiring was touted as a "shot across the bow" of women's basketball but high school recruiting results left a lot to be desired. The Vols pulled some decent recruits...

Nothing from Skim Milkey so can't be true. Still waiting on Skim's post yesterday about good news for UConn.

This account posted about good news coming to Ohio State on April 11 and lo and behold Chance Gray commits on April 14. Sometimes it's take a day or 2 or 3.

It was believed that a spot on the 2012 team was kept open for Griner who just finished her junior year at Baylor. BG eventually took herself out of the running.

Since when has the Olympic team been about choosing the 12 best players?

They gave the MVP trophy to McBride but it could just as easily have been Napheesa based on the game she had today.

No. Breanna Stewart made the Olympic team in 2016 but she also played on the 2014 World Cup team. Maya Moore made the 2010 World Cup team as a collegian, as did Parker in 2006. Parker made the 2008 Olympic team after just graduating from Tennessee. If Clark is added to the team it'll be...

Will play for Azerbaijan in 3x3 event after the team won a qualifying event.

Amazing how this guy is proud of himself. All that his and others' "break the internet" tweets did was create rampant online speculation about players who were never considering entering the portal. Seems childish and irresponsible but I'm rather old-fashioned on what it means to have...

Right, but that's not relevant to your point. You said OSU and its fans feel the same way UConn fans felt when UConn joined the AAC. How is that possible? UConn joined the AAC after winning a National Championship and then went on to win 3 more in its first 3 years in the AAC. UConn also...

Oregon State fans could only dream about feeling how UConn fans felt after the 2012-2013 season. UConn's roster upon joining the AAC included Stewart, Jefferson, Tuck, KML, Hartley, Dolson, Stokes, Chong. No player left UConn because of the AAC. UConn went on to win 3 straight national...

And marketing campaigns by other schools better ramp up.

Not so fast. As @Vowelguy said, the do not contact tag can simply mean that a player has certain schools in mind and doesn't want to be inundated with recruiting calls from hundreds of schools she has no interest in. She's saying "I'll call you." UConn will surely take her call.

And Shade, Morgan C, Allie, Yana.

Not really. News about transfers spreads quickly among AAU coaches/directors.

His tweet includes: #ThePortal.

"More drama than a junior high lunch table."

Timea Gardiner from Oregon State now in the portal.

Gardiner (Oregon State) now in the portal.

Good for all concerned. Good luck Amari.

Good for all concerned.

Barnes?

I see her in the same role as Maya and Gabby, setting up at the elbow, creating for herself and her teammates. Like Maya and Gabby, Sarah is an exceptional passer. She lacks the athleticism of Maya or Gabby but, like Maya, her ability to make shots extends out to the 3-point line. Geno will...

The biggest question mark for both UConn and Notre Dame is the all-important post play. The portal may provide some answers.

Your assessment on Aaliyah was not correct. Also, you're pretty disrespectful towards Aaliyah considering the load she had to carry this season. Wait, so now you're saying it's legit not to even rank UConn in the pre-season top 25. Like I said, all over the place. It's hard to keep up from...

Yikes. I'm sure many LV fans will complain initially and then rally around the new coach as they should. The fans will need to be patient and this coach will need to hire a top-shelf assistant or two. She could end up being really successful but she has a ton of work to do.

Where is this quote from?

If you're going to rank a team anywhere from #1 to #16 I guess you increase your chances of being right. But you changed your opinion from May to June because Aaliyah missed one week of summer camp in June to be with Team Canada. That was your new information. Aaliyah had a terrific season...

Official.
