She looks slightly taller than 5-7 Jada Richard. 5-8/5-9 ish.

GG is so fast, quick, has incredible handles and Fulwiley-ish passing. She can finish at the rim. I haven’t seen any 3 point shooting tho.

I don't believe that we'll get Kaleena Smith and GG Banks. So, I would expect whichever one comes here, the other will go elsewhere..................

Judging by this brief video, we would do well to get EITHER of them.

Definitely not getting both . Kinda prefer Banks , little more size. I’d be happy with either , hope we can land one of them to hopefully pair with Bradley, that’s give us two top five players for 27

I thiink Mulkey feels like she will be losing some of the current Freshmen players on the the team as well. She seems to dwell on this often in her PC's.....she is not much on the portal.....really believe she expects to lose some of the girls after the season is over

Man I know we just lost to South Carolina again in the pointless SEC tournament but a lot of this is non sense. The freshman have played a ton this year for just being freshman. They are all best friends and love LSU.

I didnt get that sense fully I think she expresses frustration with the portal and not knowing who could come back from year to year because as we all know players leave randomly for no reason. Starters, All Americans, productive players all always leaving every year for a number of reasons, not just the bench people who never play

Sa'Myah left LSU despite being a starter for more cash at Virginia. And it came out of no where.

But every program deals with this.

I still think Kim will only coach another year or two anyway, but it will be interesting to see if Redus leaving hastens that any. Someone on the staff is going to have to pick up his heavy recruiting load.

I think she goes longer than that especially with Starkey on staff . Now if we lose a lot of transfers like 357 said , I guess she would not want to deal anymore with the way things are now with the portal and call it quits pretty soon .

I thought it was interesting she talked like the job wasn’t finished in her press conference at the SECT. Referencing how long it takes to build what South Carolina and Dawn have.

The Nina Davis hire makes sense as far as gary replacements. Young dynamic coach with ties to Kim.

Brune on On3 said he thinks she will come to LSU but that was about a month ago.

They may bring Sytia Messer back. She was Kim’s ace recruiter to directed all those top recruiting classes at Baylor and helped lsu sign their first class before Kim coached a game

Haven’t heard anything about her situation, not sure how much she would have played this year if she remained on the team . Probably not a lot.
