So how does the recruiting just flip a switch in the last year or so to start bringing in these high profile players in women's basketball. Seems like a really good get. Do we think maybe due to success on men's side?

Did anyone else read the thread title before coming in and think, "Huh? We have a guy named Lauren on our team now? lol"

Bruce's connections may have helped in the last class. 2 5* gals from Georgia.

I can guarantee it did

Bruce needs to connect with some post players for the ladies. All the recent recruits have been guards.

Incorrect. 2 of the 4 girls in the 2018 class were forwards.

6-1 and 6-4 though. I'm talking those 6-6+ bigs.

Not many of those around, especially with any real skill. The ones that do go to the UConn’s of the world

The tallest WNBA player in history is 6'8. Candace Parker is 6'4 for reference, that is plennnnty tall IMO

[jared52 4,354]

Yeah, 6-4 is a good get for sure. Just looked at MSU’s roster from last year and they weren’t as big as I thought.

My exact thought was "Who gonna name their son Lauren?" (Maybe except for Ralph's mom and pop?)
