If you hear anything, let us know.  It's next to impossible to know where our recruiting efforts are focused.  When Talia Goodman was on campus, she did a nice job of providing info but now that she's got a national gig, we're kind of an afterthought.  And while the men's recruiting efforts get closely watched by a number of sources, that's simply not the case for our women's program.  About the best we get is when photos are posted following a recruit's visit.
