re: WBB will need to hit the portal now.
Posted by Northerner13 on 4/28/24 at 12:01 am
Favorites will be:
South Carolina
UConn (I bet Beers ends up here)
USC (with Iraifen commit)
UCLA (with Leger-Walker commit)
Texas and Notre Dame will be media darlings as always which is fine. Let us gel under the radar before making our run. ...
re: WBB will need to hit the portal now.

Agreed, looking closer, this years team is already much more complete.
Lost:
Angelica Velez, 5’7 G So (1.2ppg)
Janae Kent, 6’1 G So (1.6ppg)
Kateri Poole, 5’8 G Gr (4.5ppg 22-23) 4GP
Hailey van Lith, 5’7 G Gr (11.6ppg, 3.6apg)
Angel Reese, 6’3 F Sr (18.6ppg, 13.4rpg)
Returning:

Now that Velez is in the portal you likely can add 3 more transfers. 4 if Bartlett decides to move on as well.
Poa | Richard *
Williams
Johnson | Wolfenbarger | Kent
Morrow
Smith | Del Rosario
Besselman | Bartlett
IMO you take a proven PG, dominate PF, and pure 3point SG. Best av...
re: LSU v Iowa II is most anticipated WBB game ever
Posted by Northerner13 on 4/1/24 at 5:30 am
They tried to give Texas a cupcake bracket and they came up short anyways.
This has all played out as they wanted minus the long horns not making it.
It’ll be that much sweeter when we run the table. ...
re: Redus/Woman’s BB is not getting anybody
Posted by Northerner13 on 3/22/24 at 7:39 pm
Well said. Swung for the fence and missed on Strong, Edwards, Cambridge, and Koval. It’s not the end of the world recruiting the top 2 transfers last year and 4 freshman in the top 100 ESPN rankings (2, 7, 44, 74).
Even IF HVL and Angel leave you have:
Smith | Del Rosario
Morrow
Johnson ...
re: HVL showing off today!!
Posted by Northerner13 on 2/4/24 at 4:16 pm
This is the lineup moving forward. Poa will need to play bigger minutes and contribute by facilitating the offense and playing tough D.
It keeps HVL, Williams, Johnson, Morrow, and Reese fresh.
Smith was a bigger loss than Poole but losing both accelerates the time table for Del Rosario to p...
re: Time for Velez to get some minutes
Posted by Northerner13 on 1/27/24 at 3:50 pm
The team is talented but the top players positionally overlap one another. Mulkey is finding a way to make it work. After last year confident she will. No one wants to see this team come tourney time. Remember 22-23 team played an historically easy schedule, lost by 24 to SC, and bounced by TN in SE...
re: WBB: LSU 62 vs Auburn 67 Final
Posted by Northerner13 on 1/14/24 at 3:32 pm
HVL is playing below her normal contribution but as mentioned she is still adjusting to new position and ideally figured it out by the tournament.
This is the worst game Williams and Johnson have played all year. Not a knock on either just an off game.
They will still pull out the W regardle...

LSU doesn’t have a choice. Disadvantage of going on game 8 vs 5 in CWS. We’ll see some combination of Skenes, Hurd, and Cooper. ...

Found it interesting that towards the end of HVLs photo shoot video Poa and Poole are right by her side. Hopefully this means they are aligned.

There seems to be a lot of smoke Betts (Stanford) is leaning towards UCLA but that would be an amazing add. Ideally we can add a true Center, veteran PG, another F and G in the portal.
The talent this team has and potentially could have is crazy. I’ve added ESPN top 100 rankings to illustrate. *...
re: Hailey Van Lith (Louisville WBB) in the Transfer Portal. Is she BR bound?
Posted by Northerner13 on 4/8/23 at 8:53 pm
I think Kim takes 4 if the quality is there. Transfer Portal and NIL has completely changed the game. It’ll also be interesting if everyone stays as I could see Bartlett and A. Williams taking a step this year.
Imagine getting Van Lith or Rodgers to run the point. Johnson, M. Williams, Reese, an...
re: I’m on Angel’s side but her recent “We’ll go to the Obamas” comment was unnecessary.
Posted by Northerner13 on 4/5/23 at 7:59 am
Hopefully she doesn’t forget what got her that attention. I have nothing wrong with her comments or maximizing her brand and getting that NIL money. Post game she talked about wanting to model in the off season, and I’m all for balance. She is unapologetically herself and extremely talented.

Posted elsewhere but here’s an ESPN article from November about incoming recruits for those interested.
1. LSU Tigers
Highest-ranked commit: G Mikaylah Williams(No. 2)
Previous ranking: 1
Kim Mulkey had the No. 17 recruiting class for the 2022 class and then added impact transfers in the ...

Posted by Northerner13 on 4/3/23 at 7:26 pm
Wasn’t meant as a knock. More of a compliment as that is some serious high praise. 2nd best EVER pure shooter Kim’s coached!?
She was unbelievable in the finals and backed up that high praise. Her slump was felt as this team needed that consistent 3 point threat. You could also see the confidenc...
re: LSU WBB transfer portal thread
Posted by Northerner13 on 4/3/23 at 3:49 pm
I think she’ll look for a 3point shooter to replace Carson as well. Kim said Carson was the 2nd best pure shooter she’s ever coached. All be it, she waited until the final game to show what she can do. ...
