If you scroll down a bit, you'll see her mother retweeted that and put in some shamrocks and some hands folded in prayer. Good vibes?
On the other hand, I see her response to Deja's visit to North Carolina has two blue tar heels and a blue heart.
So, we've got a proud mom here! Natch!
Stay tuned....
I hope we pass on Kelly. I have been vocal that by taking Hayes we should pass on Kelly for the sake of 2021 numbers. Just me.
and that's the respective heights of Hayes (5'7") and Kelly (5'8").
If the Irish continue to recruit and play with, in effect, one tall post, one forward and several guards, I think overall team height and size needs to be taken into account. Having one smaller, faster player can be beneficial, but two concerns me when taken as a part of the whole.
(I'm aware that Arike was 5'8", but she is solidly built, played bigger than her size and was alonside 5'11" Marina and 6'0" Jackie. Not to mention she had Jess Shepard, Bri Turner and Koko Nelson in the paint.)
If we get Clark, I think this is a mute point. If we don't, even then I'd wonder where a 5'10" Kapinus fits into the mix. And next year, there's 5'11" Olivia Miles as a prospective PG, along with 5'7" PG Ari Wiggins (there's that height again). And 6'0" Sonia Citro, the off guard who has an offer from ND.
That said, Kelly is a very highly ranked guard with whom there has been a mutual interest since she first appeared at a game on an unofficial visit.
I've got think there is a some method to the madness, whether it's as absolute value and/or giving MM and her staff options.
As usual, stay tuned....
The ESPN article appears to be throwing darts/pure speculation - just reading the rationale for each player's placement.
I guess it's better than the other way though.
...if she shows, I think/hope she will like what she sees. The campus should be jumping with the rivalry game. Fingers and toes crossed
