Shaq and her were at the National Championship game together to see LSU win. How to they go from that to passing on LSU. Something is not right



O'Neal was even sharing non stop posts about Mulkey and the rest of the WBB team after that.

I think it has to do with LSU no longer pursuing her and only going after those 'top 5' players this cycle. I think its super risky but time will tell. They need to land Strong/or Cambridge though, Mulkey knows what she is doing but I can't imagine not giving O'Neal an official then to walk away with nothing this cycle outside of Richards

If we miss on Strong it will suck big time.

I believe KM offered the O’Neal girl, unless the player asked to NOT WBR recruited!! Or wants to play in TX or Cali, or a historical power house, it’s alright and I want Shaq in our corner….

Loved when she said "Coach Kim Mulkey is firey. But so am I".

Yikes. Wanna bet they don’t take this approach in 25? Lol Listen Mulkey will get players there’s no denying that. But if they strike out it’s embarrassing. I don’t give a damn how popular your program is you just don’t do this sh*t. It’s risky as hell. But if they got all of them we’d be singing her praises right? Strong is so damn good she’d pair perfectly with Mikaylah. That’s a deadly one-two punch.

We will see what happens in a month. If they walk away with no one else it’s a bad look but lets hear it from the horses mouth first

For some reason, I'd be less upset if Strong picked Oregon over Mulkey, as opposed to say committing to Dawn or Geno. Still, saying it'd be more like a nut-graze than a direct kick doesn't truly make it any better.

There'd also be the (similar to Mikaylah) USA 3x3 teammate connection with Katie Fiso that'd make some sense. The Oregon visit did seemingly come out of the blue.

Along with accomplished stars Endyia Rogers & Tehina Pao Pao both recently jumping ship, this would be a head-scratcher.

Strong is choosing between LSU, UCONN, UNC, NC St, Oregon and Louisville supposedly. SC ain't in the picture unless something changes tomorrow, I think its widely expected Joyce will stay home and that will be their post for their class.


But I think Cambridge may end up being LSU's best shot of the recruits. I think she has been high on LSU for a while and Redus coached her sister at Vanderbilt so there is familiarity with the family. But Ohio St may have the inside leverage with her sister there, but all the kids were at different schools prior so that may not be a deal breaker


Mulkey and the entire staff will be doing another in home visit with Strong next week and then LSU turns focus to 25/26 recruits next weekend for a big recruiting weekend. Outside of that, Addison Deal will be in town later this month, then the focus turns to Strongs decision and Cambridges visit in November.

Sarah Strong is supposed to finish with visits to UCONN and UNC, she will be at UCONN next weekend. It shouldn't be long after where a decision is announced.

Mikaylah Williams first media access at LSU
Even though she can play PG, SG and W, she says thinks she’ll get most of her minutes at Wing, like most of us pencilled her in with the Fab 5 starting lineup.

Looks like she’s impressed with HVL’s work ethic & leadership and says she wants to be like her one day.

Schedule news: Looks like, of the 32 games (including the two exhibition games), 28 of them are confirmed to be televised, particularly every home game, whether on espn, espn2, SECN or SECN+.

The Colorado game opener in Vegas will certainly be televised, but so far it’s TBD.

The Cayman Island Classic with games vs Virginia & Niagra will be available, but from some stupid streaming pay website I’ve never heard of.

The non-conference game against Coppin St in Baltimore (Angel Reese’s home town return) is the only game that has no current availability for viewing.


They announced today that the LSU vs Colorado season opener in Vegas will be televised by TNT at 6:30 cst on Nov. 6th.

That leaves the Coppin St game as the only game on the whole schedule currently with no broadcast availability or accessibility.

I'll be sure to record it because I plan on being in LV for that game.

Wow. I wonder if she still goes to her scheduled UConn visit this weekend.
