Class of 2020
- Kylee Watson: There's another round of AAU Tourneys coming up before Watson takes her OV to ND, which gives the ND coaching staff to see her -- and Alli Campbell for that matter -- play for the Philly Blue Belles.
Good way to keep track of Alli and send positive vibes to Watson.

Like you, glad of the timing for Watson. There's a bit of wiggle room to determine interest/work on transfers in the interim. If the right one is not there, go after Watson hard. Would be great to have two forward/posts in pocket going into the summer.

- Clark. Like you said, she's virtually Mueller-esque in keeping information tight to the vest. I hear Iowa's great in May and June: maybe Matt would like to see the Field of Dreams site?

Transfers.

- Crickets on Cooks.
- Same with Collins, but if there is some mutual interest there, would love to see something happen. She's a Maryland girl, but the Terp roster with Austin is pretty tapped out. Wonder if she'd also be open to Tina Thompson and UVA? Hopefully, Carol Owens and ND can parry and raise.

- Oh, btw, remember Lydia Jacobs, the forward from Radford you suggested? She ended up at Va. Tech, which is not surprising given familial connections.

Niele Ivey

- Agree that she was going to stay here to be with Jaden until he was out of high school.
- And, yes, if the Purdue coaching position (which is now rumored as "hot") opens up, the entire Ivey household could move southwest.
- And let's see what happens at Duke this year....JPM is still overseeing a gradual slide that at some point will have to stop or be noticed.

- As for ND....think we've got three fine candidates on the bench next to MM. Maybe one of them has the flair, but you never know.
- And another former PG seems to continue to be making the right moves, now that she's at Marquette.
