Adhel next to Boyer at the game.

So I count 8 players, 2 coaches and 1 recruit in the frame. If you can name the 8th player you are a genius. I’ll get you started
Jolette Law, Fulwiley, PaoPao, Feagin, Johnson, Kitts, ?, ?, ?, Tac, and Debbie Boyer.

I should have been more specific, technically it's Kitts, Jah, Tac(the one with glasses), ? and Boyer.

You need to count the feet. There is someone behind Kitts who is totally obscured. If someone can tell me who that is I will be massively impressed

Any updates on Tac? At this point, she is a MUST get.
I got my garnet colored glasses on at the moment, we are the only program of her final four that makes any sense in my opinion.

UNC signed 2 post players that are freshman and have a commitment from Blanca Thomas.

L’ville is perimeter dominated offense and has undergone huge portal turnover

UGA and coach Abe are solid, but her style does not develop for the next level PLUS they have 11, yes I said 11 seniors on the roster

To add to this Louisville added two overseas recruits that are incoming freshmen and are both post players. So from a player depth perspective we provide the best opportunity for playing time along with Georgia.

LSU, I’ve posted links to an SI article and one by their beat writer in the Lafayette paper. The SI article is all rainbows and unicorns. The other article is I guess “we are hungry and offended”.

Friends LSU is an excellent team. They are beatable and I believe we are a real matchup problem for them. You draw your own conclusions.

What I also see is a program and cult/ure that screams look at me more than any other program in the country. Gonna be an interesting ride this season

To be a top 5 pick you need to be able to have more moves than Angel. She is an excellent rebounder and lay up maker but that is it. She also didn't help herself with her lackluster play this summer with Team USA.

Maybe she will use that as fuel and have an amazing season, but I don't see that either with all the other stars on that team vying to up their draft stock as well.

I have watched a lof WNBA games since we have more Gamecocks playing than ever before . The big surprise to me has been how good these women are with the 3 ball. It seems to be "layups or 3's" not a lot of in between shots. I think A'ja is probably the best/only player to use her mid range shot the most . Note to all players-----develop that 3 !!!!

A’ja had 30 pts and 11 Rebs in their victory tonight.

A’ja is the first player in WNBA History to score a 1,000 points in a single season(regular season + playoffs)

First player in WNBA history to have 3 straight 30+ games in the playoffs. First player to score 100 points in 3 games in playoffs

If you look at the analytics she was absolutely robbed in the MVP vote and there is a lot of player, coach and talking heads pushback.

For the playoffs

29 ppg
11 rpg
62.2% fg
89 % ft

What blows my mind even more is she wasn't even a "close" 2nd. She was 3rd. Huh? Are you kidding me? What idiots decided this?

Does anyone know anything about her ,other than BB stats ? A search brought up another Adhel Tac from Texas that started at TCU now plays for UTEP.. 6 FT forward, soph. Am just curious about her(the one we are recruiting ). Where is she from / What country is the flag from ? All I could glean is that she started playing late in Jr High

Adhel Tac is from Texas. She is from one of the African countries orignally, I believe Nigeria, but i could be wrong on that one. She was originally ranked 5th in the 2024 class and noted as one of the premier post players along with Blanco and Koval. She had a knee injury last January that cut her season short thus why she slipped in the rankings due to not playing the second half of the season. She has the most upside of the three centers and is the most athletic which fits our style the most. She would be the best fit and a great get for our class,

The flag that she has draped around her is from South Sudan. So I'm assuming that's where her family is from.

Great about the exhibition game! Has anyone heard anything about secret scrimmage/practice?
