This is not a vent board or any other kind of therapy. Before you hit the POST button, ask yourself if your contribution will add to the level of discussion going on.
Important notes on articles:
- Please do not copy entire articles into your post; rather, provide links to them.. We are now links-only for ALL Internet publications. If only a small portion of the article pertains to your post, Fair Use allows you to copy those one or two paragraphs, provided you cite the author's name and the publication for which he writes. Otherwise, put a link in the HTTP Link box.
- Even if you're copying a reference to an article, provide a link to the page from which the article came. We're trying to cut down on duplicate topics, and the posting process will check the link to your article to see if it's already being discussed on this board. At the very least, you'll save yourself some grief on the boards.
- If your first reaction after reading the article you're going to share is the author is uninformed / stupid / a jerk / all of the above, it's not worth sharing with anyone. Not every article needs to be discussed. The more the hair-pulling articles are discussed (e.g. ESPN Page 2), the more the authors will write hair-pulling articles.

Mississippi State Picks Up Tall Transfer from Ole Miss by dillon77
Promise Taylor, a 6'5" forward/center, from Ole Miss has transferred to Mississippi State. She'll sit out a year, per SEC regulations.
Timing is really fortuitous for Vic Schaefer in that he'll get to have her step into the paint after 6'7" Teaira McCowan graduates after this year.
MSU has also recruited several other bigs (see Jackson Clarion-Ledger article that is attached), so "big person in paint" seems to be a priority for Coach Vic (hey, it's worked so far).
Not that he's ignored the guards. At the same time, Taylor becomes eligible, Andra Espinoza-Hunter, the guard transfer from UConn, does, as well. She was a big-time scoring sensation from Ossining, New York, who got in the log-jam of off guards and wings in the UConn Class of 2017, that featured Megan Walker.
