2026 could be the best class we’ve had since 2013 if we’re able to close. Additional donor support, etc. has been helpful in getting some of these top players on campus.

I don’t know if numbers are available but any idea how much the additional donor support has increased?

 

[Carolina151]

I don’t have exact figures, but we can “compete with pretty much anyone” for a player right now. We have the resources to remain a Top 10 program. Now, we’re not going to come out and drop millions on a player- but we’re position to land Top 10-15 recruits and do well annually in the portal.

Thanks for the information. You have answered my question. I was thinking that was what CB was saying during her summer press conference.

 

[Carolina151]

Final 5 for Leelee Bell. 6’3 PF. Our OV for her went very well. If I had to guess, I’d have us in her top 3 closely behind Nebraska and Louisville

Haha I was being tongue in cheek.

 

[Jriv23]

Okay, I see. You already knew that information. Glad to see a little humor. Go Heels!

Well it didn't take long to find out.

 

[1stGenerationHeel]

Ok I’m excited about year, but someone give me a depth chart for next year…

Arnisalo / Harpring
Kelly / Grant
Brooks / Henderson
Toomey / Queiroz
Thomas / Guiamatsia

Does this sound right?

 

[BDiamond]

There’s not a depth chart where Kate Harpring doesn’t start

[Jriv23]

Yes, it does sound right for now. We did not know who is going to be next to sign with us. You left out Hull, Zubich, and Sid, unless you think they will transfer out after this year.

Who does she start over? Even her dad will want her to earn it so is she beating out two starters, one a 3 year starter and the other a starter on a final four team.

I thought Fanatic was just having a little fun there, could be wrong!

 

[tarboy]

I am still wishing and hoping (Dusty Springfield) for us to get Big O.
I would not rule it out.
I wonder how many Coach CB would take this year.
3 spots will be open. 4 spots if we used Sid's walk on scholarship.

 

[CCHeel1]

Add Leelee Bell and Vukosa and call it a day.

 

[tarboy]

Might be the #1 class in the nation.
Close if not..

 

[Jriv23]

We still need to add a PG. I hope the girl from the DC area will come.

 

[HeelOne]

We have some legit go to scorers in the ‘25 and ‘26 classes.

 

[Jriv23]

I totally agree with you about having some legit scorers in the '25 and '26 classes.
