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.

Continued Interest in Grad. Transfers Catches One's Eye by dillon77

To wit:

"McGraw would like to add a point guard graduate transfer as well because the options in the front court apparently have been exhausted.

"“They either went somewhere else or we didn’t think it was a good fit,” she said, also noting that the staff was looking at only grad transfers because of the current urgency situation where they need immediate help."
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
I'm not quite sure if the "they" referring to front court options are strictly about grad transfers but, if so, that would sync up with what we've seen and/or written about: relatively slim pickin's up front.

Given Jordan Nixon's up and down year frosh year (for a variety of reasons), one can see how the coaching staff would look at possible one-year fits to add some stability and/or guidance to mesh with the sophomore. And, of course, that wouldn't pose any issues with 2020 PG recruits (particularly one from the midwest that wants an opportunity to play right off the bat...).

The point guard mention coincides with a tip I got that a player in the transfer portal from Stanford was possibly going to visit ND just before the dead period. The only person in the portal for Stanford is grad transfer Marta Sniezek, who is, indeed, a point guard and is getting her undergraduate degree shortly. Pretty sure she's an American Studies major so there would a lot of one-year grad programs available.
It will be interesting to see if that trip was made and if there was mutual interest between the coaching staff/team and the player.

There's another better known PAC 12 grad. transfer pg available, Minyon Moore, but one hears her name thrown about with Mississippi State and/or Oregon (she's tight with Ms. Ionescu). So, Sniezek might make some sense, particularly given that we've drawn from Stanford before.
