This is an exciting player, and it's good to see Ivey & Co. aggressively recruiting even young players.




Whew, just that pic is fire. Very SkyDigg-esque. *

...and "lil bullet"?

How could that not be a true baller name?


ND will need guards for 2023 as Gilbert, Mabrey, Peoples,

and Prohaska will all be finished with their eligibility.

This offer to Jada Williams indicates that Niele wants to recreate the recuit a PG every two years cycle that had featured Diggins, Holloway, Allen, and Patberg. Ali's injury problems and transfer disrupted the pattern which then went off the tracks with the Jenna Brown defection, Jordan Nixon transfer, and the need for two grad transfer point guards.


Niele Also In Touch With 23's Alexis Hess, an AAU Teammate..

..of 2022's Ayanna Patterson, the 6'3" wing who has an offer from ND. Both play for Ohio United, although Hess, a 6'0" combo guard, is a year behind scholastically. No offer here, but a call, which Ms. Hess duly noted in late May.

Sometimes other apples belong to the same tree. Maybe Niele is finding another source of players in Ohio United, a la the Philly Belles?

Complete Tip of the Hat to DaBall from the Boneyard, who tipped me off to this.

Clearly, NI sees something special here

From ND Hoops Recruits:

“WBB: Jada Williams is a 2023 5-6 PG. Ranked top 10 in class. Surprised the '23 class is being offered already. Only player I recall Muffet offering more than 2 years out was hometown Skylar Diggins.”


Did her babysitter also get offer? *

Younger sister of Maya, whom a lot of Benchers love. Maybe they're playing the family game.
