Ayianna Johnson has signed with Arkansas. She switched her West Virginia commitment to follow Coach P to Minnesota for her freshman year. Spent her sophomore season at Colorado (Boulder). She played last season at D2 Univ. of Colorado at Colorado Springs.

Awesome! Very impressed with the program’s success in the portal this offseason. Three solid P4 starters for three open spots - all positions of need. It should be exciting in The Barn next season! 〽️

Should mean no Merkle to Washington… So hopefully down to us and Oregon! 🤞

https://ucfknights.com/sports/womens-basketball/roster/player/leah-harmon Here’s her Central Florida bio from this past season. Played her freshman year at Miami. Before being injured scored 38 points against Kansas! After being injured she had still scored the most points on the team after...

Correct. Players have 5 more days to enter the portal. The recruiting / signing process will continue to play out for quite awhile after the portal entrance period closes.

As of this morning the On3 portal tracker listed 1,456 portal entrants with 221 having picked their new school. It seems it’s still quite early in the process, which as a fan was good for me to see bc reading these posts can be anxiety-inducing. 😂 Would love a Merkle commitment soon. There’s a...

I think Merkle could have a great year in our system. Every player has strengths / weaknesses, and our system is ideal to showcase her strengths and minimize weaknesses compared to Washington and Oregon. Oregon seems like the oddest fit. She could clean up on the O boards / putbacks, and would...

I wish I could know all the players the Gophers staff is in contact with. 😅 Good to know on Lana. I get the appeal of a good program close to home. I wonder if it was more that or just not the right fit with our team from the visit here. McGill to Oklahoma State is out of nowhere to me! I...

I would go for two posts and a point guard. I like Lana’s stats and it looks like those numbers were while averaging a bit under 20 minutes per game. If we get a second post with similar stats they can each play near 20 minutes like we did with Hart and Tonga with whoever gets the starting nod...

I really appreciate the insights! Since we won’t be swapping a Hopkins grad point guard for another, how about swapping one NC State post transfer with another?! Tulsa Tryyger is a 6’6” post in the portal that averaged 10.6 points and 7.1 rebounds. From Sweden. Reminds me I want to grab lunch...

Does GopherHole have moderators that block posters after a few weeks of racist comments (there have been a couple lurkers doing dumb stuff like this) or is it on individuals to block them and live with stuff like this on our boards. I’m guessing the ones that only chime in to say this crap don’t...

I believe Senden is a Preferred Walk-on / not on scholarship.

Nunu Agara is grad transferring out of Stanford. 😱 Could we please slide this Hopkins grad in with the scholarship from our departing Hopkins grad?!? 🙏🏻

I’m already excited for next season! It’s very impressive the players and team have built a culture where nearly everyone returns. Seeing the stream of returners announced today was a relief. 😮‍💨 It says volumes about the coaches and players - this seems rare in the current college sports...

It’ll be great to see a Gopher fave joining Whalen on the sideline at Target Center this summer. I hope the Lynx draft Battle with their third round pick.

Kennedy Klick announced back as well. I could see her role growing next season.

Bring in both Merkle and Crooks. Each can play 20 minutes. 3M can sponsor Merkle, and Target can fund Crooks. Problem solved. 😂🤣

I will miss her. She’s a joy to watch, and from everything I’ve seen from her she’s a person I would always want as a teammate. I completely understand wanting an opportunity to play more for her final season wherever she lands. I’ll be rooting for her.

I’ll miss Battle and am happy to celebrate her in whatever ways the U decides in the future. At the same time, I’ve been around long enough to know Cosgriff was the opposite of a friend of the Gophers during his coaching career. I don’t give a flip what he thinks the U should do.

Dawn started Grace as a freshman (if I’m remembering right) and Tori as a freshman after Mara was injured very early in the season. I don’t think she’s opposed to playing freshmen at all - they just need to pick up the offense and defense early on.
