Absolutely! Kellie has created an amazing culture and people are noticing it, too!

One thing Tennessee has going for it is that since Kellie has been here, we don’t have people leaving, other than Saunders. Not many programs can say that. I’m sure that’s a topic of conversation with recruits and their families.

And with NIL, Boost-her club, and OMD, they could strongly consider a 5th year!

[Mike Robinson]

Based on sources, I’m hearing that there’s a real chance that Rickea comes back.

any real speculation about any seniors using the extra Covid year? It’s beyond hard now to make a wnba roster. Surely the girls are seeing that with the class before them.

[Amanda Boshears]

What about Tamari and Jordan?

[Maria M. Cornelius]

Nik, no one has made a decision yet. And, yes, they are aware of the roster limitations. Jasmine Powell did say when she signed that she would take the extra years.

For the others, I think TK, Horston and Rickea are locks for the WNBA. Horston is a big guard/wing who can run the offense, play on the wing, rebound, score and defend. She is a wing prototype in the league. TK is 6-6 and mobile. Rickea is a special talent.

So will just have to wait and see how it shakes out for them. The great thing is all athletes can get agents now and get an honest assessment of where they stand.

[Maria M. Cornelius]

Agree about culture. Players want that. Parents, too. And there have been more high profile stories of coach abuse from Syracuse to ETSU. Players and parents are aware that a stable environment is priceless.

[Maria M. Cornelius]

Rickea is seeking her first NCAA tourney, which is hard to fathom. She may want the extra year to have a fuller college experience. But, again, they don’t know yet. Probably won’t until winter.

Predictions for when geno hangs it up? He’s def looking “aged”

[Mike Robinson]

Vic is not playing Tennessee this year because of Rickea Jackson! He is very angry that he lost her to thr Lady Vols!

Vic thought he had her in the bag.

[Brandon Witcher]

If we make the Final Four this year, they all may want to come back.

Question about the current roster: Who has worked and shown noticeable difference in her game? Looks like Jordy is ready to battle from her vids and jumper looks sweet but didn’t know if anyone stood out in summer work outs

[Nik Winters]

And where’s the tea about the Texas game?!

[Mike Robinson]

I know for a fact that he told the Fudds that when Azzi leaves, he’s done. But he could hang it up even sooner.

I will also add Tennessee is the Fort Knox of recruitment. They keep info well-guarded. Jillian Hollingshead was a surprise, not to Tennessee, of course, but to everyone else. Very stealthy in how they operate behind the scenes.

Mike and I have to share notes and rattle a lot of cages to get the best info we can.

I think Fudd will have a new coach before she leaves college.
