If you don't mind, can you please give us your opinion of the top 3 or 4 players in Texas in the 2017 and 2018 classes and why you think they are "can't miss" players at the next level. Thanks!

If it were me and i had the perfect world i would want this combination of players from Texas.

Pg: Alexis Morris (2017).....in the beginning she really didn't understand how to play pg but now she is doing an unbelievable job. She can't shoot as good as Patterson but she plays defense like no other. Morris can score, she just does it differently. She once put up 53 and did it as a freshman.

Sg: Didi Richards (2017)......this kid might be the most complete basketball player in the class. Her issue is she has to learn to be more selfish. She passes up a lot of shots but still averages over 22 points a game. She's a good defensive player and is a true 6'2"

Sf: Lexi Gordon (2017)...... May be the best pure shooter in the country for the 2017 class. Some would argue to move Morris to the 2 and Richards to the 3 while putting Patterson art the 1 but i like Gordon because she is 5'11" and can shoot just as good if not better. There are 2 sides of the ball and she plays both sides.

Pf: Cate Reese (2018)...... Really versatile and can play the stretch 4. She's 6'3" and a pretty good rebounder. She uses her length really well and has a really high IQ. Has a very high motor and would compliment the others well

C: Sedona Prince (2018)..... At 6'7" she can step out and knock down a 15 footer but she understands how to protect the rim. She also is a good back to the basket player. Plays defense really well.

Sixth man: Kayla Owens (2017)......she's a very athletic versatile kid who you can play 2, 3, or the 4. At 6'1" she can grab the rim with 2 hands and can shoot the 3 with consistency.

Charlie Collier (2018)......very skilled kid but she wants to play the 3 when she's really a 5. She has the skill of a 3 but my rule of thumb is if you can't play defense on that position then you can't play that position. She is entirely to slow to play the 3 or the 4. She is tough at the 5 spot though.

Jade Williams (2017)...... She is a stretch 4 who can rebound really good. She runs the floor well and if you want to play small you can with her.
 
Skilledserv, thanks for an awesome post! That's the kind of information that many of us crave but it's hard to come by. Morris, Richards, or Gordon would really help us. Two of the three would be unreal.
 
Hey skilledserv, are any of this kids looking at OU?

There is a rumor out there that Morris, Richards, and Gordon will be headed to Baylor.......but I've heard Richards is torn between Baylor and Texas.

Prince seems to be headed back to Texas while Collier will be at Baylor also. Texas may ease back into the Collier race but coach Mulkey and Collier parents have ties back from Louisiana.

Kayla Owens and chastity Patterson are the kids that Oklahoma are really going after. I know that Patterson was at a recent football game and Owens was supposed to be there but for some reason she was still in Houston.

Prince is another one they are recruiting hard but she is 98% Texas
 
Thanks, Baylor just keeps getting better!
 
Any truth to the rumor that Dungge and Richards don't get along?

We greatly appreciate the information!

I heard somethings but i thought it was more just talking. I've seen them playing around after games so i just assumed it was rumors
 
Christyn Williams is being heavily recruited. Do you know if OU is also recruiting her?

If they aren't.....they may need to change there thinking.

You could make an argument that she's the best kid in that class. She's really good friends with Gordon so it would be wise to recruit Gordon.

Williams is a long kid who can play the 1, 2, and 3....she puts you in the mind frame of a shorter version of Richards.

She has a sweet left handed jumper, good hops, and it appears she plays under control.

Oh Okay maybe it Llanusa and DiDi then..

Ana and Richards are supposed to be playing together this year coming up. I will keep an eye on that, but i can't see anyone not getting along with Ana. She's a great kid and she works hard as hell on both sides of the ball.
 
Have you seen any of the Oklahoma Kids play? Other than Dungee and Wilson. If so, can you give an evaluation?

Also, what do you think the chances are hat Patterson comes to OU? I think she will fit well in Coach Coale's system. Reminds me a lot of Ellenberg.
