    Gopher 22-23 Transfer Portal Needs/Watch List

    This was a big miss, Hakes is a local kid, but I was hearing she was very smart and the college education part might of trumped the athletics

    Gopher 22-23 Transfer Portal Needs/Watch List

    A slap in the face to 2 active players that choose to stay here and 1 of the 2 didn't play and both were freshman? .. with the hope we get great players from the portal when our only real recruiter was preparing for her new head coaching job. If we are going to congratulate assistant coaches...

    Oberg Coming Home

    I wouldnt look just at her stats at Ark, if they were a person to person defensive team, Oberg cant defend or run the floor with the athletic 5's.. But, she is a very polished player that always had good footwork. As a youngster she was dominant, but over time her size was her detriment as she...

    2022-2023 Season.

    Oberg is a good pickup, she was rated very high in 7th-9th, but then everybody started to catch up to her, she ended up struggling to defend against the top AAU clubs, which is probably why she didnt get much clock at Arkansas. She is a big body though, more skilled then Helgren offensively...

    Bruce Odson: Conversation is that Aaron Johnston will be Minnesota’s first choice if Lindsay Whalen does not turn the Gophers around next year.

    it will all come down to how they compete, its asking a lot for them to finish in the top half of the conf with a completely new team

    Linsay Whalen Questionable Coaching Ability

    I dont think it has a lot to do with the debate of 'great players make great coaches?', I think it has more to do with how you communicate with kids, do you have a message and is it clear. Dawn Staley is a great communicator, her post game speech was inspiring, she was articulate. If you talk...

    I can't see how Maryland recovers from the departures and Diamond Miller having surgery. If Maryland is top 2 in conference next year, she is national coach of the year, she must be a magician with recruiting, but with the portal we are starting to see the 'free agents' partnering up and...

    Linsay Whalen Questionable Coaching Ability

    Some kids will probably drop down to D2 or D3 just to play closer to home. Many realize D1 isnt for them, their arent committed like they thought they were. I would guess going in the portal is like an exit interview for some

    Sara Scalia enters the transfer portal

    This statement resonated.. "=AZX_HErRjHMBVUs8Z_WSE9JvnoraLEgvRpNkRxmqj97txPmxkkR0mvS0EACehxxQ8s1jr5Uqwu_avqz1NMSEl2pu-95vCnBK4CHjwvkaoQANuYm-IheHh1QFwCWdUXSsi4Y&__tn__=R]-R']Sara has big dreams and only so much time to tackle them."

    Sara Scalia enters the transfer portal

    When former players reach out to you and say good things about you, then you get the impression Jaz didnt leave because she hated playing with Sara. Many here say they werent a big fan of Jaz and we could see why at times, but she WAS talented, that talent has to be shaped and molded from day 1...

    Sara Scalia enters the transfer portal

    WNIT Game 2: Gophers Visit South Dakota State (3-20-22)

    SDSU has no superstars(or maybe 1) but are so well coached.. The sum of 5 blue collar well coached cohesive players are tough to beat.. This is where coaches earn their pay, they assemble kids that fit their scheme and now 20 years into Johnston's tenure, he just plugs and play a new kid each...

    I'll give her 1.5 years, she will transfer.. Just keeping it real.. Great kid, but cant make an impact on the defensive end and will be way to tiny to get to the basket to finish. Not sure what Wisc is thinking here, but good for the kid!

    Kadi Sissoko enters the transfer portal

    your right I meant to say Scalia is the last of the upper classmen that came in together. Not assuming she is leaving... just wondering what is going through her head as one by one, players she had the longest relationship with have left.

    UPDATE: Jasmine Powell Leaves Team: Transfers to Tennessee

    I wouldn't be surprised you surround Jaz with better talent, better coaching, she could really end up being the steal of the portal. She will be held accountable and I think she needed that.

    Gopher 22-23 Transfer Portal Needs/Watch List

    Let me just clarify and I have said this in other posts - Braun is the most polished/ready of the 4 freshman, so I am high on Braun. I also agree on your assessment of Battle will be in the rotation and I think Heyer and Holloway will provide depth in some fashion. Nothing against the...

    Jensen needs to understand it takes more then Clark, she totally dismissed Lauren Jensen and you see what happened ... Jensen should of easily been the 2 guard for Iowa.

    Kadi Sissoko enters the transfer portal

    with this news of Kadi, there are no upperclassman left, so I'm not convinced Scalia wont be next.
