..come to mind:
- That must be some tall fence around Texas that keeps most Texas prospects (particularly psots) from leaving. (Bri must've really been a great jumper to find her way north!)
- And the magnet that draws bigs to Baylor is right there: Smith, Egbo, now Gusters. Even though there probably won't be immediate playing time, they keep coming. Heck, Egbo and Smith both made the National team and Egbo didn't play much beyond garbage time this year.
- BTW, I saw that Deja Kelly made National Honor Society and graduated in the top 15% of her class. Kudo's to she and her family. Clark is a top-notch student, too, so the two PG's look good in that respect.
Deja Kelly is a 2020 prospect who ranks in the top 15% of her class which qualified her to be nominated for NHS as a junior.
...and I didn't proofread my own work. Geesh, I only went through this a few times with my own kids.
Thanks for the corrections...main point stand: she's a good student!
Texas after Bri Turner chose ND because it seems to be the land of the bigs in women's basketball! If ND could recruit a good Texas post player every two years, all would be well with me because I know there will be guards on the roster.
What was the connection/angle?
I believe it was about the education. I have spoken to Bri's mother. She should be a recruiter for Notre Dame. She has nothing but really high praise for Notre Dame and the staff. She is very proud of the woman Bri has become thanks to both.
