Cal, Arizona State, Florida and USC.
The schools were actually listed alphabetically in the tweet. I listed us first because I could. lol.calbear80 said:
I like it that we are listed as furst of four. Keep the fingers crossed.
Gi Bears!
I agree. It's a new coaching staff (first year last season). One assistant, Kelly Rae Finley, has recent ties to both Arizona WBB and Colorado WBB as a recruiting coordinator, so I'm guessing she was in touch with Angel Jackson at some point. That's all I've got in terms of detective work.annarborbear said:
Not sure how Florida made the cut. They finished 11-19 last year and 11th in the SEC.
It is also likely that Oregon St's 6'9" player will end up playing a stretch 4 position. That would put her on the court with 6'7" player at center. It will really be hard to match up with them height wise. Better chance to run them off the floor along with picking up some 3 pt shooters.annarborbear said:
Oregon State has signed three top post players 6'5" or over including a 6'9" five star. Stanford has signed a 6'5" top 40 player. Arizona will have a 6'6" post to whom we had also made an offer last year. I think we should be praying for some defense and rebounding.
I'd love to add a defender and rebounder. Making the occasional putback or uncontested layup would be enough offense for me if we have 4 scorers on the court with her.ClayK said:
I think Angel is a good player, and will have a solid career, but she is primarily a defender and rebounder.
Just read that Tucker's mom is a Cal grad. Hope that this will count for something.wbbilluminati said:
It's unclear who is recruiting Alexis Tucker. Raoul_000 on Twitter has Gonzaga, St. John's, and Texas Tech as being three of her finalists. Then I recall another Tweet mentioning she had an offer from Portland.
Very bizarre turn of events to see mediocre programs on her list considering she was ranked top 10 by Prospects Nation early on, and still top 100 by Hoop Gurlz and PN.
