Tournament MVP McKenna Treece, a Kansas State signee, was instrumental in the early surge as she connected on numerous mid-range jumpers.

A misprint? or did they mean to say a KSU commitment?
What I found interesting upthread was that Patterson (presumably the KSU coach) was commenting on Treece: (from a K-State website, posted upthread by Sybarite).

“McKenna Treece is a strong, physical presence in the post with a solid foundation of fundamental post moves and great hands,” said Patterson about her new forward. “She runs hard and well, she is a terrific post passer, and has range to the 3-point line. McKenna brings a strength element to our post game that is a strong need in our program. McKenna and Shaelyn both have the potential to impact our program immediately.”

If the quote above is accurate about an unsigned player, Patterson violated an NCAA rule that states that coaches cannot comment about players until after they are signed.

So what is it? Was Treece signed, and backed out and now committed to OU? what's the word?

Yes, she signed with KSU but decided to leave when Patterson was fired.

Gotta love that last sentence of the article. The writer sounds bitter.

This incoming group of recruits looks to be an upgrade from last year. Guess we will see when they throw the ball up.

 

[SoonerNorm]

I think we should be able to score points. A great deal of our success will depend on how tough we are defensively and on the boards. We have got to get more guards involved in rebounding.

I predict Kay Kay has a fantastic year if she takes it upon herself to get better and not wait for coaching. She needs to be in better shape and watch her fouling. The thing is she was playing on a team that did not play to its capabilities..........for whatever reason. That had to affect all the players, including Kay Kay. She wasn't the only one making stupid fouls. I agree that Gibbs should be coached and developed, because I think she has the inherent ability to be very good. I do not think it will happen.

I have always thought that KayKay was very talented with all the skills to make a killer forward. I think she is playing out of position and has lost focus hence her uneven performance. Occasionally she is astoundingly good and other times she disappears (like Nicole). I just hope she wakes up and consistently practices, works and concentrates on being her best all the time.

I think it was announced that Gibbs is transferring to Washburn.

Gibbs departure has no official notice to it.
We're just going off rather specific language in a Facebook post.

Got accepted to OU today! #14days

 

[BanjoCharley]

Great!

 

[Keller Sooner]

Welcome McKenna! I hope you give OU the inside presence that was sadly lacking last year. This team needs some physical post play from someone, both rebounding and scoring. I hope you are the one that provides it.

 

[mikeareese]

Her sister will be at the US trials. Possibly another big in 2017.

It may not be "official" from the OU end of it, but Washburn already has their fall 2014 roster up on the web, and Gibbs is on it.

There was also mention of her transfering two weeks ago on Washburn's web site along with another player from some where I don't remember. Sounds official to me.

I like this type of dedication:

Run my sprints in the rain? Sure why not, gotta get this workout in somehow.

 

[atlantasooner]

My Gibbs post on 5-6-2014 was accurate at the time.
But everyone is right.
Washburn's officially announced her transfer, etc..
Still never saw anything from OU press release wise.
