Scored 12, 7 rebounds vs IU.  Would not be better than what is currently at IU and not as good.  If playing time became available…not to mention it…same old predicament and a struggle to get to those same statistics.

iU Ladies need inside strength and power with scoring skills.  ( only a couple players short of big leap)

Tennessee forward Lauren Hurst will enter the transfer portal, per her representatives @GSEworldwide. Hurst is a former four-star recruit and shot 41.4 % from three this season. Will have three years of eligibility remaining.

Tennessee Women and Oregon Men's basketball players:

Arkansas’ Bonnie Deas plans to enter the transfer portal, her representative @chrispongrass of Lighthouse Sports told @On3. The 5-9 freshman averaged 10.2 ppg, 9 rpg, 2.6 apg and 1.5 spg this season.

 

Pretty good stat line for a 5'9" player.

Lauren Hurst is a T. Moren type player.  Small sample size but fg% 2’s and 3’s 48.8 percent wasting away at Tennessee system kinda get the feeling Tennessee Lady players are feeling this way.  T. Moren has her name written all over this one. Of course there is already Noyan and another big time big is needed but there is room for another to fit into the mix and 3 years eligibility.

Seen some reports this one might be one to keep an eye on.

Big name in the transfer portal with Talexa Weeter out of Fort Hays State (D2). The 6’0” junior guard averaged 27.5 PPG, 8.9 RPG, 1.5 APG, 1.0 BPG & 1.4 SPG in 31 games this season. She was the NCAA D2 scoring leader this season.

I honestly do not remember her in 11 games!

Good move…team like Colorado State.

IU Ladies opening up things for some position upgrades.

Given the amount of time that's passed from the initial transfer announcement to Chloe's announcement today I wonder what's happened in that period of time.  If she planned to portal I would have expected her announcement around the same time as the other 3.  Has she been urged to look elsewhere because our staff is that confident we've got some incoming transfers signed, sealed and just waiting to deliver?  Had she planned to portal all along and her agent has been working to find her a new home which is now in place?  Inquiring minds want to know.

Offseasons meetings just happened. The people who Announced prior already knew they were leaving

Spreen was never going to play.  IU Ladies were just trying to put a team together last year and were looking for bodies.

LSU’s Divine Bourrage plans to enter the transfer portal.   The 5-11 freshman averaged 2.1 ppg this season and was previously a 5-star recruit.
