UConn
• Andra Espinoza-Hunter, 5-11 FR guard, Ossining, NY → Mississippi State

Interesting simply because she's going from a school close to home to a school far away.

 

[Oliver Hardy]

If they aren't over 6-2, I don't even want to know about them. We need a center and a 4.

Does anyone have any info on whether these girls have interest in OU or if OU has interest in them.

Sherri's not one to take transfers - at least so far in her career.

 

[sybarite]

It would be important to know whether they would have to sit out a year. A graduate transfer would be OK. I have seen little of anyone's interest.

 

[SoonerSpock]

Interesting simply because she's going from a school close to home to a school far away.

But both schools are winning big. UConn is the benchmark and MSU has made two consecutive trips to the championship game. Just came up short both times.

 

[sybarite]

Add 5-9 Taylor Turney, PG, starter for San Jose State, soph.

Add to Pitt's transfers:
F Yacine Diop
F Kalista Walters

Verbal abuse by coach leading to Pitt transfers.

 

[Mac]

With the retirement of Rich, picking up a back up point guard wouldn’t be such a bad idea, if Tatum and Shay start in the back court, someone who can come in and run the “offense” would be a good move.

 

[Oliver Hardy]

Good point (no pun intended). Penzo is not the answer, even as hard as she tries.

 

[sybarite]

I thought that was Tatum's job?

 

[Mac]

I thought that was Tatum's job?

Yes I think Tatum will be a 4 year starter at point guard, if you look at Sherri she normally has a freshman point guard start from day one... I could see Jess or Taylor getting some run at point, but Robertson looks like she will be 3 point specially, not sure Jess will get many minutes...

 

[threepointshooter]

Vivian Gray and her sister are transferring from Fort Lewis College to Oklahoma State. Because FLC is division II, they will be eligible immediately.

Vivian originally chose FLC over OSU so she could play with her sister. She also had offers from Baylor, Texas and Oklahoma.

Vivian Gray and sister transfer to OSU Cowboys. Per her and Raouls twitter

 

[Soonerguy06]

Dang, the cowgirls may not be hurting so much after Goodwin/Jenson graduate after all!

 

[Mac]

Vivian Gray and sister transfer to OSU Cowboys. Per her and Raouls twitter

Sounds like they were a package deal, the older sister doesn’t have good stats and didn’t start... Vivian had great numbers for a Freshman and if her game transitions to the BIg12 she could be a All BIg12 type of forward.

 

[threepointshooter]

Vivian Gray and her sister are transferring from Fort Lewis College to Oklahoma State. Because FLC is division II, they will be eligible immediately.

Vivian originally chose FLC over OSU so she could play with her sister. She also had offers from Baylor, Texas and Oklahoma.

If they can find a solid center to put on the court with Vivian Gray and Braxtin Miller, they might be good next year.

Delapp is a decant player, I watched her play and she can definitely hold her own... I think she will provide good minutes next year, and wouldn’t have minded seeing her at OU.

 

[soonerstar]

Kruger added a graduate transfer today.

 

[Hoopdreams79]

Would you want a Delapp over a Gnanou? I know this is a juco but i am really hoping we can land her. She can help immediately. I didn’t think too highly of Delapp but not saying she can’t help but a first year post at the doc 1 level is imo even harder than a guard playing as freshman. The speed is different and post generally have some catching up to do. I still am hoping for Gnanou.

 

[Mac]

Most of our players don’t seem to turn the page until about there jr year, unless we have a super freshman... I can think of a bunch of JC players who didn’t do much in college, and I can’t think of one who was a help to OU, idk rather take the chance on a high school kid.
