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.

Depending on Next Allowed Recruiting Steps.... by dillon77

...there might be a chance to get Kiki Iriafen (Class of 2021) and/or Ayanna Patterson or a Grace VanSlooten of the Class of 2022 to ND for an on-campus evaluation (if ND wants to go in that direction).

A press release on recommendations came out a bit ago, but numerous folks on various boards said a decision had been put off.
If it did come through, it could be like this:

"Establishing opportunities for coaches to evaluate prospective student-athletes from Aug. 15 through Sept. 29."

Ayanna and Grace could take advantage of the closeness of Ft. Wayne and Toledo, respectively, while Kiki could get to campus to take a look see on top of a workout. She's Class of 2021, so there is some urgency.

Regarding Megan Duffy's interest in VanSlooten. There is a redshirt senior forward named Lauren Van Kleaunen on the Warriors who is a hybrid forward. She's easily the Warrior's best forward right now and I'll bet Megan saw a lot of her in VanSlooten. Plus, Megan had a couple of 6'2" hybrids at Miami of Ohio, so she knows how to use the position.
