[ccgeneral 38,084]

An early list and probably a long shot, but good to see us in the mix with the others. 

Fairfax, VA (Paul VI) 
AAU: New Jersey Sparks
5'10"

ESPN (5*,11)

Prospects Nation (5*,5)

 

[Class of '66 Old Fart 81,091]

Possibly transferred to Blair Academy in Brick, NJ in May of this year.  Regardless of where she's currently attending high school, this is a girl you'd definitely like to have on your team.

Found this on the Blair Academy website:

Honesty Scott-Grayson ’18 Makes Blair Debut

New sophomore Honesty Scott-Grayson '18 made her much anticipated Blair debut this past week in contests against ASA Junior College and Life Center Academy. Scott-Grayson is a 5'11" combo guard who is ranked as the number-one player in her class in Prospects Nation. She also played for team USA this past year in Mexico, where she showcased her talents as a scorer, creator, defender and leader. Scott-Grayson is being recruited by most of the top programs in the country, including Notre Dame, UConn, Duke, Maryland and South Carolina.

It'd be awesome but not gonna happen.  IUWBB on a list with UCONN, Tennessee and ND has about as much of a chance as I have of winning the lottery twice.

Can't win if you don't play.

So it's the new fad to have a "Top __" with double digit schools?

You may be correct but I just took it as these were the schools that had been in contact with her and had expressed interest; not necessarily a "final __".

It's her Top 14. She cut it shortly after we watched and offered.

Yup, if only we could land our first 5* prospect for IUWB

From what I'd read some of the top dogs like UCONN and ND hadn't offered her.

Any idea why? Are they still shopping?

No clue, I have no sources.  That was posted in the Jaelynn Penn thread, basically saying something like many had reached out to her but a few like ND and UCONN hadn't.

 

If Grayson wanted to come, great sign her up, I just have a very very difficult time seeing it when the list includes WBB heavy hitters like ND and UCONN; the list of girls that Geno Auriemma has had go to the WNBA is a lengthy and includes stars the likes of Sue Bird.

Is it possible that she prefers to pave her own way through a come up program rather than going the "never lose a game" route? Is it possible that ND and UCONN are favoring other prospects or have returning players she would have to sit behind. There's a lot that goes into recruiting and is slightly premature to say there's no chance...

Anything can happen, there is a lot that goes into recruiting.  It's great to be on a list with the likes of those schools, that wouldn't have happened before, but the odds of actually being able to beat them?  Even if ND or UCONN had other priorties, that list still includes the likes of Tennessee and other successful women's programs.

I'd add her to the team in a heartbeat if she wanted to come here, I just don't see it happening.

I thought we just got a commit from a 5* pg

Correct you are.  Jaelynn Penn is the young lady's name.  Originally committed to Dayton but decommitted after the Dayton head coach left.
