Kylie Marshall is in the transfer portal. This does not surprise me at all. She got zero playing time.
Wow, this is concerning but I'm not surprised. Another square peg round hole player that in my opinion talents don't fit how Coach Joni runs her offense. 4 out of the 6 players in the portal are guards. My question is why are all of your guards leaving? Some of you have said that they have reached their ceiling so go out and get players that can produce. I say they weren't developed and don't fit the offensive system.


I've said all year, their are 2 types of coaches. a System Coach that runs the same offense every year and doesn't adapt to the players talent on the team. Some players adapt and others may feel that system doesn't fit their talents. The second is a non-system coach which develops an offense around the talent that they recruit or the talents currently on the team. In my opinion this type of system is preferred because it is tailored to the talents of the players and they have defined roles that they can feel comfortable in.

Long story short, this coaching staff has to either recruit players that fit their system perfectly or build one around the talents of the current players on the team.

I am not so sure that it was a miss. I just don't think she fits the 2 or 3 type player that is needed for the system that Coach Joni runs. That is not a negative on Kylie's game either because she has skills.

I just remember Joni kept saying that she needed to learn to play faster. I bet she works better in a set offense maybe? Idk. I would assume we have some good transfers coming in. Hope to hear something soon.

It would be nice to hear some news about transferring in instead of going out!

Dumb question how many people are left

Aicha Wade ??????
Aicha, Lauren, Sole, Jada, Erica, Vanessa, Sahara, & Kyndall
wasn't Kyndall Hunter arrested - "We are aware of the situation and per department policy, the student-athletes are suspended indefinitely. Further comment will be withheld until more information is known," said Women's Basketball Information Director Brandon Collins. So can see play?

I don't know - I guess time will tell.

I would assume Hunter will be back. I think the others involved were already going to be in the transfer portal. I don't recall a misdemeanor weed possession case ever being the sole reason a player was never able to play here again.

Weird that she's just now refuting it as that news came out last Thursday. Who knows…

Just saw Janiah post something that said FREEJB2 so I'm wondering what is going on behind the scenes.

and considering what I heard at the banquet (once they're in the portal - no coming back) that doesn't make sense...

Amina is out of DeSoto and was offered by Coach Blair in 2020. Maybe she would like to stay in-state and follow in the footsteps of many other great Aggie athletes out of DeSoto. I hope having one of her former teammates in our program is a plus.

Yes, staff should at least make a call to both Amina and Samara. Both would be huge gets and fit needs.

I hear that Shayeann Day-Wilson(Miami), Kailyn Gilbert(Arizona) and Mjracle Sheppard(Miss St) all committed to LSU. Wow, that strengthens the backcourt for sure.

Can't wait to see who we get besides Janae. It seems like our transfers from last year signed on a little later in the process. Coulibaly did for sure.
