LSU needs to fire Caldwell and try to hire one of Geno's assistant coaches or Kim Mulkey's assistant because our women's team is horrible now.

Balcomb takes more talented recruiting classes and does less with them than any coach I have ever seen at Vandy. WBB should be a sport where VU is among the elite like they were in the Jim Foster days, program has slipped quite a bit. When they miss the tournament this year for the 2nd year in a row, I hope an ultimatum is laid down to her.

I assume OP played wbb? No other logical reason for your bizarre obsession with such a shitty product.

Why did the twins leave is the question?
Vandy gets good player but they leave, if they stayed, perhaps the result would be better.

I think the top played (with Cocks and Vols in the hunt) just gave verbal to the Line Beards.

IMO it's an ominous harbinger of bad times to come for the sport in the SEC: the conference clearly had a slump this season, with Tennessee having one of their worst seasons in decades, and other usual top programs like LSU, Auburn, UGA either slow to rise up or plummeting into the depths of mediocrity.
USC hasn't followed up their great recruiting class like I would have liked, although they do have a couple of very talented studs on the bench that will be active next season: a projected starting foursome of Wilson, Coates, Davis, and Gray will be among the most talented and potentially productive foursome in all of WCBB, but we're still very shaky at PG which is the position that could bring it all together, as well as we'll be thin on the bench come next season.
With the departure of Colley and the question of Duckett returning to the team, USC is thin at PG, and could also use both another true Post as well as an athletic 6-0 - 6-2 Wing to fill out the depth...

Tyasha Harris would fit that mold perfectly for us, 5-10 guard who's in the Tiffany Mitchell mold. Could be a PG/SG hybrid for us.
Plus we're bringing in a 5 star point guard in Araion Bradshaw and a 4 star Stretch 4 in Mikiah Harrigan.
Even though our depth is a bit worrying, I wouldn't be surprised if we bring in 1-2 more guards

It is pissing me off only Vandy has a Top 25 recruiting class and this kid (Nyah Green) from Texas that Louisville got had 3 SEC schools on her list (LSU, SC, UT) so would be happy for some SEC schools to get the recruiting press ESPN is giving the other conferences.

Don't fire Caldwell ... she's the best looking coach in the league.
SCAR's class .... Dawn Staley returns four Mickey-Ds All-Americans next season plus two big time transfers who had to sit out this year.
She's only got three schollies to give and they are three good players, so we'll be fine.
Her 2017/18 class will be Top 5.

ESPN's next-to-final class rankings for thew 2016 cycle is out, and South Carolina leaped past Vandy for the top SEC class at 11th overall:

Vanderbilt's class is at 18th. ESPN has had to wait for their final class ranking because of a highly rated prospect Sabrina Ionescu taking her time to commit to a program.
She's down to non-SEC schools in Oregon and Washington - Oregon is already ranked ahead of USC at 7th, so any bump for them in getting the player shouldn't impact our ranking, and Washington isn't in the top 25, so while getting Ionescu for them may push their class into the rankings, I highly doubt it would be enough to catapult them above USC's 11th place standing.
USC's class leaped up over the previous ranking due to the late signing of 5* PG Tyasha Harris and high 3* CG Victoria Patrick. Those were in addition to the early spring signings of 5* PG Araion Bradshaw and high 4* F Mikia Harrigan...
