its not ideal... but i dont think its surprising either, with Andi/Bekka both being ahead of her Kind of an awkward sell for recruiting from the portal. Andi losing her spot doesn't seem likely with her potential and Bekka's block is hard to beat. The Husker IG Kjolhede follow now makes more sense with Maggie leaving. They still have Ames coming in Janua.... Oh, that’s right.

Weren’t her finalists Neb, Texas, Washington and Minnesota?
Washington or Minnesota would gladly welcome her in I’m sure

Kentucky would love to have her. Thinking about it, as crazy as this sounds Iowa would be a great fit. She would be an absolute stud and get to play BB with Caitlyn Clark. Word

I don't blame her.

Wouldn't surprise me at all if Mendelson goes back home to Utah. Do the Utes or BYU need a middle? Maybe Utah State? byu maybe? mcewan-llarenas graduated and their other middle is a sophomore now (lee)

Stanford would be out if she wants to play both sports. Furthermore clearly Admissions would be very difficult. She would have to wait several months to gain acceptance. Probably her best route is to get out of Lincoln ASAP and transfer to her new school so she can start playing basketball in the winter and/or train with her new volleyball teammates.

Since she entered in the VB portal, I suspect she wants to concentrate on VB in the future.

Washington or Minnesota would gladly welcome her in I’m sure Washington vball needs a middle and Washington bball needs a big I am sure she would do well there. Sadly her leaving High School a year early has actually hurt her she should of been a freshman this year. She would have been better off waiting a year to come to college

Okay guys, you won't believe this but hear me out regarding Landfair. I was over at her place a couple of days ago. We ended up hanging out and going to a basketball game, the Wolves were playing. It was a great time, we had a lot of fun. I know all the transfer talk is out there and people want to know where she is going to end up, but I didn't want to bother her with that while we were at Target Center. In case you're wondering, the Wolves won.
So anyway, we get back to her place and we're in the kitchen. We're waiting for her friend to come back with Insomnia Cookies and Mesa Pizza. I figure I can at least pry and see what the deal is, maybe find out where she's gonna end up. I'm sure people have bugged her about it but hey, shoot your shot... I bought food so if she gets upset by the question a late meal will fix that quickly.
"So, you know I'm tempted to ask the big question... Not like everyone else isn't asking"
She knew what was up. Wasn't upset, though.
"You're transferring, I know. I heard it's either Nebraska or Wisconsin, so which is it? Do you know yet?"
She looks down at me (Which I guess isn't hard when you're like 6'5 and I'm 8 inches or so shorter) and starts to talk. I'm dreading what I expect to hear, she's going to the Badgers isn't she? Of course she is. I didn't even catch the first few words she said, but now I just need to hear it from Taylor herself. Suddenly the room goes black.
Everything goes black.
I open my eyes, some sun shines thru the window. I see the clock, it says 8:30am. Did I pass out? Did I miss the big scoop? Nope, that clock is the one in my bedroom. It was just a dream after all. Sorry guys, I got nothin

Washington vball needs a middle and Washington bball needs a big I am sure she would do well there. Sadly her leaving High School a year early has actually hurt her she should of been a freshman this year. She would have been better off waiting a year to come to college She was not going to get better at BB or VB playing for another year against inferior high school competition and she is all about getting better. I am surprised that she is not playing 1 more year of BB at Nebraska as she had a lot of bad high school habits to break, she is just starting to fit the system, and the team is pretty good and would be better if she has improved. She found out that she could not bring the ball down for a dribble before she tried to score, that she needed more strength, and that she couldn't run at people or lunge when playing defense in the BIG. A season of watching Rienk Mast and copying his game would really help her.

I just don't see that happening. Any top WBB program that is a contender isn't going to burn a scholarship on a player unless they get first dibs on her playing time. Which will be from October onwards. . . unless she chooses to walk-on to both sports

And I also think that she didn’t get a chance to compete for starting middle last year because she was asked to back up whit on the right.
