PN's Ranked 2021 Players, Other News Added To Recruiting by dillon77

Hey all:

I've updated the Recruiting Update (see link below or entry just above).

This includes adding any new information to prospects and/or commits, as well as moving a few prospects around from "of interest" to going elsewhere. Always interesting to see how the 2019 (and some of the 2020) funnel starts getting smaller.

However, the 2021 recruits are just getting going in earnest. Prospects Nation has put out 25 ranked players, which Hoopgurlz did a bit earlier.
Both HG and PN have the same top three rankings: Azzi Fudd, Amari DeBerry and Olivia Miles. After that they differ pretty widely, as a list of some prospects that have been associated with ND shows.

- Azzi Fudd, 5'11" guard. #1 HG, #1 PN.
- Amari DeBerry, 6'5" forward. #2 HG, #2 PN.
- Oliva Miles, 5'11" point guard. #3 HG, #3 PN.
- Ari Wiggins, 5'7" point guard. #23 HG, #6 PN.
- Destiny Adams, 6'3" forward. NR HG, #13 PN.
- Taylor Bigby, 5'11" guard. NR HG, #15 PN.
- Caroline Ducharme, 6'1" wing, NR HG, #22 PN.

Once again, all of these prospects, plus a few more, are now in the update. It will be interesting to see who stays, who goes and who is added.

IN AN EVALUATION PERIOD UNTIL END OF FEB. 2019

Beginning Sept. 30th and running until Feb. 28, 2019, NCAA WBB is in an EVALUATION period, during which a college coach may watch student-athletes compete, visit their high schools and write or telephone student athletes and their parents.

However, a college coach may not have face-to-face contact with college-bound student-athletes or their parents off the college's campus during an evaluation period. (There are two "dead" periods from Nov. 12-15 and Dec. 24-26, during which a coach can only write or telephone student athletes and their parents.)

BACK TO 2019

Right now, it looks like the Irish have their energies on three remaining 2019 prospects: Haley Jones, Aliyah Boston and Laeticia Amihere.
All three have reportedly visited ND for their official trip (although no confirmation of Amihere's). Here's what these prospects have left leading up to the mid-November early signing period:

- Boston. Has visited ND and Ohio State. Will go to South Carolina on 10/26 and to UConn (with Haley Jones) on 11/2. She will apparently make her announcement during a school trip to her home of St. Thomas, U.S. Virgin Islands in mid-November.

- Jones. Has visited ND and Stanford. No news on South Carolina and Oregon, but will go to UConn with Boston on 11/2.

- Amihere. No further news.
