2022 Recruiting - WBB

After Dry and S-B committed to Texas, I went to watch. I think they played for Aledo. They were good high school players but didn’t appear to be takes. Both decommitted and neither made a mark in college. I thing one or both were at Baylor for a short time but didn’t play. I also went to see Hosey and didn’t see it.
 
Hosey played two years….maybe three. Undersized power forward. Yes….she contributed at times.

I'm kicking myself for not remembering that Latson is from Atlanta, GA, and not from Florida! :D

Apparently, Latson played for Atlanta's Westlake H.S. as a junior, but played at American Heritage H.S. in Florida her senior season.

FSU signee Latson named Florida's Miss Basketball - The Osceola

FSU will have significant change on the sideline with longtime assistant coach Brooke Wyckoff taking over for her mentor, Sue Semrau. The Seminoles will also see significant turnover on the roster as rotational players like Kourtney Weber and River Baldwin have entered the transfer portal and Morgan Jones could move on to the WNBA. A few other reserves, Amaya Brown and Izabela Nicoletti, have also entered the transfer portal.
 
Codio also had meniscus damage. Having had meniscus surgery myself…..it’s not easy to come back. It took me well into the second year before the pain subsided….and I wasn’t playing defense for Schaefer. I agree that she will redshirt and let the ACL and meniscus get better.
 
Watching the Jordan Brand game on delay to see how Ndjakalenga did. Through the 1st quarter and she was wide open under the basket a couple of times but didn’t get the ball.

During an interview, Janiah Barker said she’d make her announcement this weekend. Also said people have been saying where she’s going but they’re all going to be surprised. I’m not going to get my hopes up but I know a lot of conjecture out there has been about aggy so she may not end up in collie station. One thing about her - she’s a character and will be a fun interview wherever she lands.
 
Really looking forward to seeing Ndjakalenga in burnt orange (even better, my iPad suggestion auto fills her name when I type ‘Nd’).

If she follows Taylor to aggy, I’m not sure how that’s much of a “surprise.”

 
Does anyone know if there's any relations (cousins?) between Aaliyah Gayles and Texas alum Ashley Gayles? They're both from Las Vegas.
 
Tionna Herron from Desoto HS. Hate to see this but she will be back. She is playing at Kentucky and I’m sure she’ll miss this year for sure.

There can obviously be issues with the way that some people may feel about how these universities can treat the athletes like commodities. But I've always felt like one of the benefits of playing for the colleges with tons of resources and technology is that they're able to detect medical problems like this before it's too late or maybe not have even been detected at all.
 
I can see why Vic wanted Ta'niya Latson so badly. She is averaging 22.5 points a game for Florida State:

She’s probably one of maybe two recruits that Texas missed on that I actually cared about. You could just look at her film and see she was going to be special.
