Madi Hawk too.
I thought Walker was going to a Kansas school. It's hard to figure out what is what in recruiting* but the Ute's move to the BIG XII, affinity for the Coach, offensive strategy, and other curios got Walker's commitment.
*The state of Iowa has lost big-time recruits, but lately, the best is staying home. Kansas has suffered some attrition with the likes of Em, and Brown coming to Ames and there was big hope of Walker staying in-state.

Earlier today, Goryanova posted pics from an official visit to Baylor.
I read where Prince’s mom has said that she has reduced her list from 11, but she is not going to announce her smaller list. I think it is a great sign that she visited this past weekend. She would be a great addition to the program.
Here is the article about Prince.
"Ann Prince said her daughter had cut down that list even more but won’t go into any more specifics until planning to sign in early November."

Elkhorn North's Britt Prince narrows college choices to 11 — including Nebraska, Creighton
Elkhorn North's Britt Prince, one of the state’s most heavily recruited high school athletes ever, received 35 Division I scholarship offers. She's narrowed that list to 11, and Nebraska and
Let me guess her top three are Baylor, UNC, and us.Here is the article about Prince.

That was all in @mred 's posting of Sept 19th.
It does tie in with her visit for us knowing that at least we are on the "real" list and not been eliminated.
No way to really speculate except to say that Iowa is out since they are roster full. Maybe speculate on the not real aspect of the eleven as meaning Huskers and Creighton are out but keep on list so as not to make waves in home state.
Not really feeling bad about our chances considering the opportunity at PG and the close to home factor. Downside is Big 12 is not looking as strong as Big Ten, at least in the short term. Things go in cycles but the Big Ten is much stronger right now and looks poised to keep that up, at least at the top tier.

I don't know where you got your information, but as of last year, the Big 10 was ranked 5th among conferences for women's basketball by at least one site while the Big 12 was ranked third.

Top to bottom on average depending on how you want to grade, maybe. Looking at the top five or six teams in each league and the Big Ten was clearly better at the top third. End of 2023 the Big Ten had three teams in the Top 10, two in the top four. The only ranked teams in the Big 12 were Oklahoma at #14 and Texas at #15 and they are leaving for the SEC. They were the only ranked Big 12 teams. Early season it might only be Texas ranked, maybe Baylor and KSU. Some procrastinators seem high on Baylor, guess it's based on peeps that sat out last year. Also maybe a one year shot for KSU with Lee back.
Big Ten is losing no one and adding USC and UCLA. Both leagues may get watered down a little by numbers but the top of the Big Ten will be stronger. I am not totally sold on recent success of Utah and CO as anything close to Texas and Sooners replacements (at least historically for OU).
Big Ten is like the SEC in football. Top heavy and a steep drop off.
Goryanova posted pics from a visit to Auburn this weekend. I saw somewhere that Prince visited Indiana recently.
Goryanova visited Louisville today. She's getting a lot of visits in in a short amount of time.
Avery Howell, who held an ISU offer but didn't have ISU as a finalist, has verballed USC. I've updated the table accordingly.
Goryanova has committed to Baylor. We were in her top 8, but I'm not sure she ever visited. Britt Prince is likely our only remaining target at the moment.
I’m wondering a wee bit about what’s happening with this recruiting class. We only have one to flight recruit, two total. After having such great success last year I was hoping for more and yet here we are on the eve of signing and there are lots of holes and the top recruits are headed elsewhere.
Would have been nice to land a top tier guard but not too surprised after adding SEVEN players this year that are eligible for 2024. If everyone stays we will have 14 players which doesn't leave a lot of wiggle room for the transfer recruiting season or for playing time. Seems light on top guards but that's the way the class(s) were built. Given things these days, someone is likely to leave (transfer or not take a super-senior year) but we still have a pretty full roster.
