Not that anybody was specifically worried on this front, but... I can’t imagine her anywhere else but always good to get that confirmation. Interesting she felt the need to put that out tho. There is just so much chatter. I imagine the players might feel a need to say something to stay clear of it. But it could be just her way of moving past the semifinal too.

From now on take a break from issuing #17 to high school recruits. That's the 2nd straight sophomore departure to the portal. Stick to incoming transfers e.g. Tiff Clark. 🙂

She's merely making a statement about being back at the Final Four again next year. Full. Stop. Notice the Texas player on the court... (And yes, I see the question mark. So what.)

Wow! Caroline Juravicious and Hayden kubick are officially in the portal. NGL, I would be super-excited to see Juravicious as a Badger. And not just because it would tick off Cook and the entire Husker fanbase... *Disclaimer* - this is purely wishful thinking, I know no details whatsoever about her being interested in Wisconsin. Watch her go to Texas...

Watch her go to Texas... Juravicious is a RS and would likely sit behind Smrek at Wisconsin. She’s also from Cleveland, so I could see her going to Michigan or Ohio State (though I’m not familiar with the roster needs of those teams).

So with the exit of Wrobel, Badgers currently have 1... that's 1... healthy '22-'23 recruit. I'm going to ask Coach Sheffield at the clinic next summer why the low recruiting numbers for '22 & '23. Obviously things have been fixed for '24 & '25 and hopefully beyond. I like the transfer portal from the standpoint that I don't think a kid who makes a decision in high school should be stuck with it throughout their college career (especially if there's a coaching change,) but I'd like to see top end recruiting as a way to build a team and fill in with transfers. I'd like to have transfers mostly be depth, not top end players (but wouldn't turn them down should we have to have one.) I won't beat the dead horse on the topic anymore on this forum, and look forward to coach's response. They did, they brought in Robinson, Hammill and Demps, and then they brought in Smrek, Orzol and Jardine. Two classes, 6 scholarships. GG, Daimrow... and then supplemented that with Franklin, Booth and TTA. But building like this usually comes with an end date. It's hard to retool with freshman on the fly but if you are going to do it, Feurbringer is a good start.

Charlie and Booth and the littles are going to have to be the ones to get us thru the transition to the next group of front row players. Definitely talent coming in and maybe sprinkle of the portal to fill a gap. I don’t see the drop off being very far after next year even with losing Orzol, Smrek, Franklin and Robinson. Maybe not a top 4 team right away but still anticipate being in the top 10.

I hate me some Buckeyes but that could be fun.

It's hard to retool with freshman on the fly but if you are going to do it, Feurbringer is a good start. If anything, Sheffield should be praised for his roster management in the last three years. Given each player normally has four years they can play and there are 12 scholarships, on average three scholarship players should join the team each year. As mentioned, indeed, the entering class of 2020 and 2021 each had three scholarship players join from high school. But in 2022 and 2023, it was only two players and one player from high school. Instead, for 2022 and 2023 we got transfers Franklin, Booth and TTA — all successes. Given that COVID was raging and impacting high school recruiting, Sheffield’s roster choices were amazingly good. Contrast that with what happened at Ohio State during that time.
