Could have used an inside presence. Staff had no idea she was entertaining the portal.

Two Freshmen would have ended up triangle most of her minutes. But, yes last night would have been a help. Her Dad shopped her for more $$$.

She wasn't asked to leave and Z and Grace will be better at her age.

Incoming Caroline Bradley, with Z Johnson, K Koval, G Knox, we’ll be tougher or at least more depth.
Del Rosario couldn’t adapt to SEC but was a 5*
S Smith got hurt early in the Season & portaled
We’ll get a couple portal bigs, but we were definitely better down low as far as depth. It’s tough to find an athletic Big in WBB- portal hit or miss, freshman can they adjust to having four College bigs fighting you.
As opposed to be the Biggest on the court with no competition.

Knox and Joyner are both bigger and better than smith. She wouldn’t have helped except for depth.

Bradley is the real Deal!!! But isn't she in the class of 27'...Please correct me if I'm wrong!!!

Williams and Johnson going into hiding didn't help. If Malaysia would have been in the game on that last shot she would have never got it off. Terrible coaching

She will be senior next year.

How do you know she’s the real deal? Del Rosario was highly rated too as the #7 player in the country. They play very similarly.

I'll be honest and admit I didn't stay up to watch the game, just the highlights. But I did notice there was a lot of Fulwiley and some Johnson, but expected more Johnson and M Williams.

What is similarly? Because a lot of All-Americans are back to the basket bigs like ADR too, they're just actually good.
I watched Bradley play for like 30 minutes and she's better than ADR. ADR can't move.

Problem is she's 2027not this upcoming year at center.

ADR hs film and play was rough she was ranked high purely because of her physical size and potential but she was always very much a project I don’t know how she was ranked so high.
Caroline is actually very skilled and has a versatile game. If anyone has watched both out of HS they would know it’s night and day difference between those two

Hopefully we dont lose any unexpected players this offseason but Kim said she needs to add 2-3 players from the portal.
We lose Flau'jae and Joyner for sure.
Only bringing in Lola Lampley from HS.
Hope we can hit for an elite player in the portal but we need to make 2 good hires also for the coaching staff.

Noone gives a shite about women's basketball, acting like y'all actually go to the games when the crowd size is about 50 people.

Hope you’re right. I tried looking for film on Bradley and all I could find was LA high school competition against girls a foot shorter than her. She does have a very nice jumpshot but to me her back to the basket play is very similar to del Rosario. Not the quickest but could also be her size that makes it look that way. If anyone has a link to solid competition that would be appreciated.

Factually wrong. Crowds have been great. Stop making things up.

Then why did you click on the topic?

Yes but I was just saying with no portaling from LSUs bigs,
Knox - Freshman
Johnson- Freshman
Koval- sophomore
They’ll hopefully still be here when she’s arrives.
Caroline is good but plays against nobody in HS. She does travel or AAU but she’s not the best on the team all the time. Her IQ, effort, and work ethic is unmatched.
My hope is she meets or knows some other girls to come with her.
