The New WBB Recruiting Thread

[cyberhawk]

Thanks for the link on the recruiting of Tyasha Harris, Cyber. If she's looking for the best "family fit", she ought to feel right at home at Iowa.

I thought I had better edit this by putting a comma between Harris and Cyber, so as not to confuse people with the last name. ha ha

It could be that she views her other favorite(s) as equally 'fit' and will decide based on some other criteria. If program prestige is important she might favor South Carolina. They are a final four caliber team. They have a young and popular head coach. They are also number one in attendance nationally with over 12,000 per game. Those factors will be hard for Iowa to beat.

South Carolina does have a lot going for it. From a player stand point they bring back the nations top front court including former #1 player in her class Kaela Davis becoming eligible after transferring. They lose their entire guard court this year & are bringing in another 5* point guard too, so their is opportunity in the back court for early playing time. With Iowa's back court she'd likely have the opportunity to start early & play the 1-3 similar to what they did with Logic early in her career. She knows Whitney Jennings which might help & if distance is a factor Iowa City is closer to Indianapolis than Colombia, SC.

Excited about Jinaya Houston. Watched some video of her & she'll likely be one if not the best athletes Bluder will have had at Iowa.

 

[oakhawk]

Taylor Kissinger is back after breaking her wrist early on. First game on Jan. 12...19 points 6 rebounds. Last game 35 points.

 

[UpstreamHawkeye]

Is Jinaya Houston the only verbal that Iowa has received for 2017?

 

[oakhawk]

Naya is the only announced verba.
I went to the West High-City High game tonight. Ashley Joens scored 26 points for City, nearly half of the team total in the win.

[LarryMullenJr.]

Amanda Ollinger had her third straight double-double with 18 points and 14 rebounds.

I'll be curious to see how she develops in college. I sure hope she's a huge asset for the Hawks, but frankly I think the pace of the game will be a bit much for her for awhile.

Arieal Scott 2018 SG displays some skills...


Also, at th end of Arieal's segment is a link to 2019 G Anaya People's, her teammate who also has an Iowa offer.

Taylor would look good in Black & Gold. I like her size and shooting range.

Oak, any significance of Taylor playing with the All Iowa Attack this year, with Naya?

 

[oakhawk]

Taylor playing with Naya might pay some dividends.

Here is video of 2018 G Cassidy Hardin, a 3pt shooter
