Re: Recruiting

Seems like since she committed to cuse some people have tried to downplay her talent. all of sudden recruiting didnt matter or wasnt important. Think Belle Smith or Caitlyn Wurzburger type of impact. Still elite. I recall folks talking about Spallina's overhyped status on these boards before she co...

Re: Recruiting

:) I have said this before and it is still relevant: we are dealing with high school kids, schools get trendy. TikToK, X, whatever ... this matters. Clemson (and other big time southern schools) have been "hot" in the northeast for close to 10 years. UGA, Alabama, University of SC, Auburn....

Re: Oberlin College

I'll go one better--how about if folks don't post D3 news on D1 boards; regardless of how many people do or don't visit that neck of the woods as a qualifier. After reading and watching, this is more than D3 news - this is women in sport news. Is there a current issue in women’s lax with transgende...

Re: Transfer portal

Amazing how many transfers Clemson has. With this rep of taking so many transfers, I can't see why a high school top prospect would commit to Clemson at this point. Clemson was starting with zero players and needed to build up a whole program. They’re going to want some with college playing experie...

Re: Athletes Unlimited Season 3

Yup, sorry about that, empty stick makes more sense (probably why they call it that, eh?). It bothers me because I'm much more of a mlax mentality than a wlax mentality and it's part of the game in mlax. The stick is an extension of the body so do you do you really beat me to the ball if I can reac...

Re: Athletes Unlimited Season 3

I havn't been able to get into Athletes Unlimited. For those avid watchers, how does your enjoyment of watching compare to the college game? do you enjoy it more or less? i'd imagine it's more exciting due to the high level of play and skilled players but does it make for a better product and viewi...

Madison Doucette to Hopkins. Reuniting with McCormack. i thought she had used up all her eligibility Pretty widely known that KAH waited until very late in the process inform Doucette that there was not a spot/$$ for her at NW in 2023. Too late for Doucette to have enough time to manage/navigate th...

Re: Transfer portal

Are there no rules anymore that if you transfer in conference that you have to sit out a season? The NCAA has no rules about that but conferences can. The ACC used to have an intraconference transfer rule requiring kids to sit out but they nixed it in 2021. For example, Ella Little transferred from...

Re: Transfer portal

Has anybody except UMD transferred in a 1st team all American? Haven’t been keeping up. Your post makes it seem like ball will be the most impactful transfer because she was “first team AA”. Who cares. Maryland got two defenders as good as ball last season and they were not difference makers. On th...

Re: Transfer portal

Wow - Rachel Clark. Quite a coup for Boston College. I guess this assures that the Hasselbeck sisters will never break into the starting lineup for the Eagles. Not intended to be snarky, but I guess I need to recognize the reality that there is next to no loyalty to rostered and committed incoming ...

Re: Transfer portal

A lot of headaches associated with some players/families. It appears the Gators did their homework. Is there a back story to this you can share UO22? There is for sure. Not going to share the specifics in this forum. I was simply giving credit to the Gators doing their diligence on the player. Dad ...
