It's actually one 5 star and one 4 star. But I have a feeling that the 4 star is going to be much better than advertised.

Note that this ranking also does not account for Joanna Grymek, since she is a juco transfer.
Looking forward to the season already.
Go Beavers!

Because ESPN just takes a little data that HoopGurlz supplies, and HoopGurlz is really just one guy. There's no way he can evaluate the jucos and international players and also rate several hundred conventional recruits. He can't even get to Patricia Morris, who is 6'7" and being pursued by all the top west coast programs.
It's kind of a joke, but it's all we got.

Like ESPN HoopGurlz, Prospectsnation does not even list or mention Patricia Morris....nor does either site list Katie Mayhue. They only have Andrea Aquino in their databases, ranked as the number 6 (espn) and number 30 (propsectsnation) 2018 player in the USA. |

bennyskid - you write: "He can't even get to Patricia Morris, who is 6'7" and being pursued by all the top west coast programs."
Do you know of other programs that have offered PM? I know UCLA was looking at her last year, but did they ever offer?
I'm still trying to learn more about her because everything I've found so far is a bit sketchy and not from sources I would consider close to the scene.
My ill-informed understanding is that the Beavs were her 1st major offer and she took it....

All I know is that I read references to her on UCLA and Cal boards, but their fans are surely just as clueless as we are.

My ill-informed understanding is that the Beavs were her 1st major offer and she took it.... I saw the following recruiting info related to Patricia Morris on a Duarte HS girls basketball blog. The info was posted prior to when Morris verbally committed to play for the Beavs during May 2017: duartebasketball.weebly.com/falcon-program-news.htmlFalcons star Patricia Morris taking one of three official visits to colleges this week - 1st visit K-State
Patricia Morris has had schools like USC, UNLV, Kansas State, Oregon State, Washington, Arizona, Baylor, Texas A&M, UC San Diego, Loyola Marymount and a host of other schools lobbying hard for her services as a collegiate player over the past few years. Her first attention from schools coming as early as 8th grade. Patricia will visit Manhattan, Kansas over the weekend - home of the Kansas State Wildcats. Tricia will take three official visits before making her decision on which school she will attend. Whomever gets Patricia will be getting a tremendous student and a great kid (first and foremost), in addition to getting an excellent basketball player who will only continue to get better. Height with standing - schools are always happy to land talent, a lot of which this kid has. This observer has watched her clock in on Sunday and work on her game with two of the greatest basketball players in Southern California hoops history - Tracy and Cam Murray. I have watched her work with former pro - coach Wil White on a Saturday (or Sunday) on her game. So I am bothered when I have noticed students who do not know much about the sport of basketball going to games expecting the heavens and earth to move because Trish is in the post. The one common denominator is hearing students question this gifted post players abilities since they expect her to catch every errant pass and score every basket. News flash - this gifted post player has great hands and great feet, she will get stronger above the waist and below the waist in her continued growth as a basketball player. For most of the spectators who have made ill advised comments, most of them could not catch any of the darts thrown too low that were supposed to be post entry feeds (that should have been thrown much higher). Then after the catch - most of these same spectators seem to not understand that she has to gather and take however many defenders that are hanging all over her - with her to the basket, and then manage to score. |
