Keeley Parks 2025 Offer

LOL.

sometimes kids want to leave their own state... AND thats ok
Haha, and the argument for Davis was that sometimes kids just want to stay home. Whatever works to justify the fact that OU is losing momentum in recruiting in basically every sport.

Then again, I can't blame someone for not wanting to come to, and wanting to get away from, this backwards state.

It's an appropriate gut punch, given how recruiting for all OU sports has been going.

Of course. But if I was a girl and left the state, I'd want to go to a program that was a NC contender year in and year out. It's different as a men's player with NBA aspirations. You can pretty much go anywhere and become a lottery pick as an elite talent.
 
I'd guess they are getting some major NIL spillover from the men's program.
That is my take as well. With the increased support for women’s bball, Kansas may be trying to take advantage of the success of the men’s team to bolster the women.
 
Honestly I figured she might be going to KU. She follows their whole coaching staff and more. Hopefully she makes a last minute decision to come to Oklahoma. This will be a HUGE loss for a highly recruited In-State 5 star leaving the town of Norman and going to Lawrence, KS.
Maybe Jennie can get Aaliyah Chavez ??
 
Jennie's recruiting of high schoolers has left a lot to be desired. Not good to have to live off the portal.

Agreed. Have to get high school talent. Next year is looking less than ideal. Still a long way to go though. Wonder what is wrong with our pitch. We play a fun style and have had success.
 
Beers, Verhulst, Zya, Sahara, form a really good nucleus to build around. Don't sell Jenny short just because she didn't get Davis, a hometown KU kid, even if she doesn't get Parks. Kids love the style of ball we play and we will be on the way up. Best thing we can do as fans is come out and fill the arena- it's a lot of fun, try it soon if you haven't.
 
These Oklahoma kids are getting to be very big headed and very few have achieved as much success as Skyler Vann who had almost 0 division 1 offers. She has done better than any of the ones who have gone to Texas, Baylor and we will do fine recruiting the likes of Willams , Beers and Verhulst not to mention Zya Vann who’s is going to be a real keeper
 
You’re only as good as your next recruiting class. That’s the college game. Maybe JB pulls some magic in from the portal.
Jennie will have Raegan, Sahara, and Payton back next year along with Zya, who is looking very promising so far. KJ, Caya, Reyna, and Landry along with at least two top 100 freshmen on the roster. No doubt she will have some portal additions. I think she will be fine.
 
8 top recruits in this state, and OU was in on like, 3. And got 1. 1 of 8. 12.5%...where is the momentum for OU?
 
A little disappointing to be honest. I thought we'd get at least more than one out of such a historically talented class from Oklahoma. This isn't any better than SC could have done. Hopefully Chavez commits but I honestly just don't see it
 
Yea this Oklahoma 2025 class is probably the best class ever. And we only got Keziah out of the class thus far. Also another thing is Utah WBB head coach just took the job in the WNBA for the LA Sparks. I wonder if Avery Hjelmstad will stay committed to Utah or not.

Right now our hope is now on Aaliyah Chavez which some believe she will end up in a Oklahoma Sooner. Im not believing anything until I see the commit. Because we were also favored to land Keeley Parks until we saw she took a 2nd visit to KU out of no where.
 
Like tycat said we have a very good nucleus for next year. We won’t have a problem filling out the roster Particularly if we are as good as i think we will be this year. Fun system, maybe new stadium on the way, good conference etc.
