While the Poole situation in the backcourt is disappointing, we’ve got plenty depth there with the emergence of Janae Kent as a viable reserve. I’m not worried about HVL developing into a damn good PG. She’s an All-American. That’s what AA’s do. She is developing well into our floor general. However, it’s frustrating because Poole did bring back such valuable big-game experience in the NC run.
But with Smith healthy or no, we need Reese. We can’t be depending on Del Rosario for big and crucial minutes come SEC play. We had the luxury of bringing her along slowly. But right now, she’s a lot closer to Hannah Gusters than Aliyah Boston as a giant defensive stopper and a force in the low post.
Question: I know it’s the knowledgeable fans posting here, but why are we relegating general WBB talk to the recruiting board/thread? This should be on the Rant. WBB is a legit and popular LSU sport. frick the morons and their “who cares” posts.

I think ADR is already better than Gusters ever was. She runs the floor well and has some nice low post moves. Is she where she’ll be eventually? Of course not but by February and March I think she’ll be a key piece to the puzzle.

I agree but sometimes it gets lost amongst the 500 "Why isn't Matt House fired yet" threads every day.

Speaking of Gusters, I don’t know if she’s hurt or ineligible, but the OKST season stat sheet indicates she has not played a minute this season for the Cowgirls.

And it’s 100% obvious ADR is fully committed. Look at how much she skimmed down since getting to campus. She will look dramatically different in another year on the court

Didn't she also have an injury that kind of set her back and delayed her in the summer? But I agree with you on the commitment part, something Gusters just didn't have.

I’m not linking it or looking for it, but someone posted on the rant that Scarborough tweeted that AR will be back in uniform tomorrow vs VT.
If true, my guess is she won’t start but will be worked in gradually and play about 15-20 minutes.

Kim said in her press conference that Angel is back and will be available tomorrow. And that Poole is not with the team now and didn't elaborate further.
Also, as I'm sure we were fearing, Smith is done for the year (ACL/MCL).

I would think Poole will attend school at LSU this spring and then transfer next year.
Losing Smith and Poole is a big blow to depth. And who the hell knows how the AR thing will turn out? I hope not, but more drama would not surprise me.
Anybody have a link to Kim’s press conference from today?

The rumor now is Kateri gave a scouting report to another school..Yikes if this is true. Alexis Morris is now tweeting about it. She was on TikTok live the other day and let’s just say she wasn’t interested in talking about anything LSU. LINK

You sure Alexis isn’t just responding to the press conference chatter? Kim asked another reporter “now you want me to give you my scouting report while the other teams journalists are here”.

Lol. Now what in the hell would motivate her to do that? If she got paid, then that may open up a gigantic can of worms. So let’s just assume at present nothing of the sort happened.

I’m totally hoping it’s this !

Okay, I’m not one obsessed with analyzing tweets but yeah, I’m just about sure Alexis’s tweet: “Who gives a scouting report to the other team?” was referencing Kim’s joking remark that she would not give a “scouting report” in her presser to a Virginia-based reporter present. And the time stamp on the tweet is after the press conference.

That’s true. Kateri has unfollowed Mulkey and the assistants on instagram.

Totally agree. She's already better than Gusters, and her ceiling is astronomical. She will be key down the stretch. We really don't have anybody that matches up with Cardoso on SC other than her.
One weakness we have this year, that I don't see an answer for on this year's team... we don't have a fast, elite defender for guards like we did with Morris. Everybody knows Morris was huge for us last year, but her defense particularly on fast guards (ex - Caitlyn Clark) was a difference maker in a few games.
We saw that weakness already against Colorado.

I was hoping we would get Ryan back this year but she decided to transfer after graduation.

Kateri removed herself from the team for mental health reasons. She may be back on the team next semester or she may not come back at all

Mikaylah Williams has already made herself known to die-hard wbb fans with her 42 pt game vs Kent St, but I'm really hoping tonight, on a national broadcast, that she has another scorching performance and gains some respect from casual wbb fans likey tuning in to check out Angel (& her return).
I'm dvr-ing the broadcast as this will be my first ever LSU wbb game to go to. We'll know after the game if my attendance was a good luck charm or a jinx.
