Anyone know anything about the smucks recruits for 2019:
Lucy Cochrane 6'5" F from Australia
Jazmin Shelley 5'9" guard from Australia (I think the Beavs recruited her)
Holly Winterburn 5"10" guard from Great Britain
Beginning to look like Washington State's roster!
How good are these three?

Ionescu's mother, Liliana, sat on the baseline before the game with local sports agent Bill Duffy. Ionescu isn't expected to return to Oregon for her senior season. ... This marked the first visit of a ranked Oregon team to Stanford since the Cardinal beat the No. 23 Ducks, 78-62, on Jan. 15, 2000. The two split last season's meetings, Stanford winning 78-65 in Eugene and the Ducks 77-57 in the Pac-12 Tournament championship.

Definitely an interesting class. It can be very tough to get a feel for what international recruits are capable of. I hope Jelena is a good one, and I hope all pans out well for Jazz. We had some success going north of the border a few years back in Orum and Hamblin, but haven’t had anyone else since.
We will be competing for a lot of recruits with UO in 2020 and beyond. Both programs attract top talent. We recruited most of their starting lineup (not sure about Boley/Cazorla).

You mean anyone else from North of the border? Pretty sure The Germ came to us from across the pond.

No, I'm pretty sure she came from Valhalla, which is technically not "international".

Just to answer the original question....actually, I can't answer the original question. I'm far from and expert, and haven't really watched much video on them. From the little I've read though, I think Winterburn is pretty good and may be the most talented in this group. Their class is a nice mix. Cochrane has nice size, but I think pretty limited offensively at this point.....give her some time though, and let's see what happens. Her overall skills are probably ahead of Jelena Mitrovic, but in the long run, I like going with the size of Jelena, and the fact that she will be coached by SR and company.

Jaz Shelley just won Rookie of the year in the WNBL in Australia so she probably has some potential.

I believe Winterburn and Shelley are both primarily three points threats. We NEED to add three point threats in 2020 because our last one was Aleah Goodman. I still really wish we got Kemery Martin in 2019 to add gurd depth. She looked like a really nice OSU type player.

I agree on Martin. Her style seemed very OSUish, but she will be a nice addition to a very young and talented Utah group. 2020 is going to be huge for the Beavs. I'm sure landing landing guards/wings will be a priority, and it's a good year for it, as most of top rated players in the class seem to be guards.
