Transfer Portal 2024

I will miss Faye and I wish her the very best. But man it seems like no matter who, it’s always a little punch in the gut to see it.

But she went through senior night with Shaylee? I guess she told Vic in advance she wouldn’t be back. Using her 5th year in the portal. That doesn’t count towards our 24-25 roster count where we still have 15. Still no openings for transfers.

Yeah, I knew somebody mentioned that she was ready to begin medical school and give up basketball, but that didn't make sense to me for a foreign player who might need to play pro ball sooner rather than later in order to help her family financially; I'm just speculating, of course.

Really disappointed she's leaving. All those games she missed prior to the Big 12 tournament made me believe she wasn't coming back at all to finish the 2023-24 season. I know Vic said she had an illness, but then went mum about her. Something tells me there was a conflict like with Aliyah Matharu.

Good post players with size, quickness, strength and athleticism are hard to find. We need a replacement for her this season, IMO.

I am hearing that Beers could potentially hit the portal. That would be a phenomenal get for Texas.. I’m still hoping that JJ quinerly would hit the portal and make her way to Texas. Lol

I don't think JJQ will be going anywhere. If she did I wouldn't expect that we'd her destination after the comment she made, "I'm just glad we get to play Texas again." at the preseason Big XII Media Day... sounded like some type of personal vendetta behind that remark. Beers would be a great get and would step right in and take over at the five.

Oregon State Post Pipeline? I'm okay with that!

Anybody have thoughts on Vasconcelos? I know we pursued her but never paid close attention.

From what I read, her Final 2 were Baylor and Texas - she chose poorly the 1st time. I would love to get her but a bit pessimistic after the last 6’ 7” Brazilian freshman center who entered the portal and seemed very interested in the Longhorns only to go elsewhere (Cardoso).
 


This strengthens our chances for not only a Regional but a Super.

Now, my wife and I are following the Volleyball team on their mid-May 10-day European junket this year. We've been waiting 5 years for this opportunity since the last time they went to Europe (COVID screwed things up).

Trying to guess when Regionals/Supers would be, I'm estimating it's going to fall a day or two before or after we get on a plane for Europe So, I wasn't going to buy tickets.

However, maybe I could buy both sets of tickets and then transfer-sell them to someone here who would like to come to the games?(those tickets we can't use).

We're longtime Foundation members so we get "better than average" Regional tickets. Think about it.

I would love the opportunity to go to the softball Regionals/Supers. If you decide that you are not able to attend the tourney due to VB, I will pay you for your softall tickets. Thanks!

Ding-Ding. I got you down for them. If we can see one or two days of Regionals, of course we're going to use those tickets. Also, we have 3 season tickets, but I can buy just 2 if you need just 2.

I would take all three tickets. Very excited for this opportunity. I'll direct message you with my phone number so that we can keep in touch via text.
 
I'd love to get Deja Kelly, but I think she'll end up running the point somewhere else (as I think that's the spot she's always played and wants to play as a pro). Really hope she doesn't end up at LSU. Think she had a great NIL deal at UNC as I recall her posting about buying a BMW a couple of years ago.

You certainly may be right. But, Texas likely checks a lot of boxes for her.
  • Close to home (assuming her parents still live in Texas. However, I recall that her mom may have moved to NC)
  • She's a legacy. Grew up a Texas fan.
  • At Texas she has a legitimate chance of being on a team that goes deep in the tourney.
  • She will be playing in the SEC and may get more TV exposure.
  • She would have a degree from Texas

Lots of shoes dropping at UNC. I'm a little surprised to see this one because of the NIL deals and podcast success she was having there. She's a volume shooter... needs to play off the ball more IMO and be more selective with shots. Definitely a good combo guard.
 
We need some others to jump in the portal and gain like 3 legit players from the portal. If I’m being honest I love out Longhorns but we can’t get with the SEC right now. SC and LSU ain’t going nowhere and they friends are only gearing up and getting better and quite frankly this year wasn’t enough and almost everybody staying let that sink in. tamu, ole miss, miss state, Ken, candy, auburn, and Florida will ALL be better than this year. We need help frfr going into the SEC is a arms race and we do not have enough right now to be “challenging” anybody.
 
Auburn- former coach know Vic will be hard game
Vandy- on the rise and plays defense
Florida- nice freshman and 2 top players coming back
Aggies- hoping they don’t figure it out but should be good
Ole Miss- tough and gritty will not back down
Alabama- will want they pick back
Kentucky- Kenny will put a good team on the floor
Miss State-is coming
The SEC will be a adjustment but VIC knows he needs more. Our advantage this year was playing in tournament less scout but in conference will be different monster.
