Recruiting update (7/17)

[Mike Robinson]

Tennessee is working on getting S’Mya Nichols on an official visit. Right now, her AAU coach wants to get an idea of how much money Nichols can get before the visit is set, sources tell us. Right now, we believe the Lady Vols are her top choice. Also, Tennessee has no plans to drop Nichols after she recently tore her ACL. Another name we hear on the Lady Vols’ radar is Kymora Johnson.

AAU coach seeing how much money as in NIL deals? Does that and her ACL not turn the coaches off? She has been a top target for sometime but dang I wish we had stayed on Donavon.

Do we actually think any other program has all the NIL opportunities we have? I don’t know of another program that has a collective dedicated to only women’s athletics.

How serious are we on Kymora Johnson?

[The Ball Out Staff]

From what we hear, it did turn off some of the coaches; we are not sure which ones, though. But, yes, they didn’t like Donovan’s lack of shooting ability.

Pretty serious now, with S’Mya suffering an ACL injury.

[The Ball Out Staff]

Not necessarily, but kids and AAU coaches don’t know that, and they can easily get swayed by the con of coaches. We know a coach that’s so desperate to land talent, and this coach is in the top-10 in the country, that she pays NIL money out of her pocket.
