  1. As a coach, I wonder how you evaluate that. Talent / distraction / players commitment to ball / getting attention for the program. A number of factors at play. I'm sure physical appearance is a big part of the NIL game especially on the women's side. Strange times. I wonder if there is a report of NIL money being taken in by a teams players or if that is all private.
  2. GISELLA MAUL GUARD CEDAR PARK HS Junior HEIGHT: 5-FOOT-10 HIGHLIGHTED STATS 25.6 POINTS PER GAME (AVERAGE) 8.2 REBOUNDS PER GAME (AVERAGE) 3.1 ASSISTS PER GAME (AVERAGE) 2.9 STEALS PER GAME (AVERAGE) “Gisella Maul is the most unstoppable player we watched or played against. She can create her own scoring opportunities, she can shoot it from outside anywhere she wants and finishes at the goal. She is a fantastic player.” John Berkman Head Coach - head coach of Marble Falls High Athletic Excellence The 5-foot-10 junior guard had led the Timberwolves to a 36-0 record, 61 straight wins and a berth in the Class 5A state championship game at the time of her selection. Maul averaged 25.6 points, 8.2 rebounds, 3.1 assists and 2.9 steals per game through 36 games. The MVP of the 2021 Class 5A state title game and a 2021 First Team All-State selection, she is ranked as the nation’s No. 45 recruit in the Class of 2023 by HoopGurlz. Academic Achievement Maul has maintained a weighted 4.33 GPA in the classroom. She will begin her senior year of high school this fall. Exemplary Character Maul has volunteered locally making baked goods and treats for first responders and medical facilities. She has also donated her time at a local nursing home.
  3. I wonder if they are still going after Samb.
  4. Wow, great write-up. Thanks much, very helpful. Just add Fields and some coaches and the off-season has been a big success, even with the loss of Latasha.
  5. Cedar Park's Gisella Maul earns Gatorade state player of the year Less than a week after leading Cedar Park’s girls basketball team to a perfect season and a second consecutive Class 5A state championship, Gisella Maul became the first student-athlete from the Austin area named the 2021-22 Gatorade Texas girls basketball player of the year. More:Cedar Park girls complete perfect season, wins Class 5A title - see the photos The prestigious award, now in its 37th year, recognizes “outstanding athletic excellence, but also high standards of academic achievement and exemplary character demonstrated on and off the court,” according to a press release issued by Gatorade. Maul, a 5-foot-10 junior guard certainly showed those traits during her junior season, when she averaged 25.6 points, 8.2 rebounds, 3.1 assists and 2.9 steals a game and earned state most valuable player honors after scoring 27 points and pulling down 19 rebounds in a 45-40 win over Frisco Memorial. Really got us a great one. The future with Vic just keeps getting brighter and brighter.
  6. F'ing A! Awesome way to start the week.
  7. I'm a little worried about scholarship numbers at this point. Seem to be getting a lot of commits from the portal and recruiting, hope everyone has a chair when the dust settles. Must drive the staff crazy figuring eligibility and meeting all the position needs each year. You also wonder if anyone else already on the team will portal with the new additions.
  8. Yeah, I'd be really happy with that. Taylor is in, Faye probably but Fields is still a big if. She just got in from sunny SoCal - USC, I hope the staff give her the royal treatment today.
  9. Maybe @Js1 knows more but I don't see her listed as no contact. She didn't make a big splash about transferring or even announcing which makes me think she is leaving but doesn't consider herself "on the market". Vic and Lovato following her on twitter. All Academic B12 Rookie team in 2021 so she's smart and knows joining us is the right thing to do. 👍🏽
  10. I feeling pretty good about Gisella, Mikaylah not so much but you never know.
  11. Now we need to get Fields. Apparently she congratulated TJones on signing up with us and visits us on Monday. How could she not want to play with Rori? Glad we have Lavato and Carter in place now.
  12. Excellent! Here we go. Would love to pick up the tech transfer for many reasons. Is Samb off the board then? Faye seems the better get.
  13. In the crazy days of the portal when someone transfers in from elsewhere I figure they are ours for the duration, otherwise they have to sit for over a year which is forever to these kids. Unless of course you're a knucklehead like Tre M... Should give a certain level of security to the coaches if there are multiple years of eligibility remaining.
  14. Two years of eligibility remaining?
  15. She going to have to trade in the pink pants for some burnt orange ones. Very nice hire. Finally getting this show on the road.
  16. Some heavy action around Tech's Freshman center Khadija Faye. Vic following her on the Insta. Not declared in the portal yet though. https://texastech.com/sports/womens-basketball/roster/khadija-faye/11469
  17. Yeah, this is lazy work. Didn't bother to wait for the chaos to settle, not trying to be accurate just looking for clicks. We need a piece or 4 and a few coaches to get to a one seed right now. LSU at 10 at this point is ridiculous but the 7 for Baylor feels gloriously accurate. From a site I saw it looked like only 230 or so of those transfers were from Power 5 schools and almost 900 from non P5. Don't know if I've got that right but seemed significant.
  18. Not that I have seen, certainly nothing that has been updated lately. There were NCAA wbb tourney threads.
  19. Like was said, she is a grad transfer. We don't know why she chose Georgia over Texas. All of the seniors chose to enter the portal.
  20. If Tre has to sit, and I don't see why he would not, he will have about a full year and 8 months since he left and his next college game. Nice career management dad.
  21. It's getting discouraging, we needed Soares with Ebo gone. Samb just isn't in the same league at this point, not that we have her locked in either. Not sure who we are trying to get but can't help but think Vic's attention is divided after losing all the assistant coaches. You would think some of these players would want to play with Rori, maybe we are a hard sell without position coaches in place to help people develop. We've got some good pieces but need a few more to compete with Iowa State etc. Hope AC's crap isn't being used against us.
  22. Staff on website changed today.
