I know that 2014 class Dawn signed that included A'ja, Jatari, & BCM was special, but when it's all said & done this 2019 class could wind up being untouchable. Thoughts?

- Start date
If Dawn closes with Rickea Jackson, it will be our best class ever. But the class will have to rock and roll to match what A'ja and Bianca achieved on the court.
No complaints here! Coach Staley and staff have done a heck of a job putting this class together and I have a good feeling they're not quite done.
This is the type of class we need to compete with UConn and other top tier programs and hopefully stay at the top.

That was my immediate thought. A'ja was a once-in-a-lifetime-type of player. I don't think I'll see another here that will match her impact on USC WBB or WBB as a whole. Having said that, I'd love for Dawn to prove me wrong with a player (or two) in this 2019 class!~
They’ll finish in the top 5 when the #1 and #3 players sign with them. That would give them 1, 3 and 33.
A’ja might not really be a once in a lifetime player.
I watch UConn follow one great player with another one all the time.

There is always the next one if you recruit well enough.
Need to get one of the Big Two that's still out there. That would make this class unassailable.
I think Rickea Jackson is about 90% Carolina so I feel she will be in the bag soon. Boston is about a 50% but pulling a Boston player away from UConnis close to impossible but sometimes players go where the hot school is to make a super team so to speak. As far as Jones form california, I think it is about a 10-15% chance. It seems that one is UConn or Stanford with word I am hgearing, Stanford is front runner at the moment. I would love to land all three but I feel one more is about it but that will be 4 5-star players in this class at 4 different positions.
We're the favorites. Thought it would be done by now. She is obviously waiting for some reason. I have no clue what that is. Stay tuned!
The idea that UCONN's 2nd team could win the national title is a myth. UCONN only plays a 6 player rotation -- 7 tops. And Geno plays them pretty close to the entire game....no matter the opponent, no matter the score.
So he recruits selectively. And some top players realize that they won't see immediate playing time and go elsewhere.
But he'll no doubt pull 1 or 2 of the top players this season to finish strong.
if she was going to Miss St that would be done. They offered the baby bro in the 8th grade 3 weeks ago. I suspect she is waiting to see who else we sign. Beal is a 2-3, Cooke is 1-2, Amihere is a 4-5, Rickea is a 3-4, she might be concerned with Haley Jones another 2-3. But Jones will likely choose Stanford with UCONN in 2nd. Jones announces on Monday. Jackson might wait until Jones to Stanford is official. Or I might be totally wrong.
Why can't all of our coaches follow Coach Staley style of recruiting???
Tanner was the last one to do it before Coach Staley, but she has kicked it another notch up...

I hope your right. I got a bad feeling we won't get her. I heard Rutgers has legitimate shot at her.

Maybe Geno said “2 or 3 more years” in a press conference?
For all the supposed disadvantages USC is perceived to have in football recruiting. Dawn is proving it isn’t a state or geographic problem.
This class could potentially be a changing of the guards in WBB. Dawn is a living legend that has proven she can win it all at USC and develop future all-pros whereas, as great is he has been, Geno is an old white guy and getting older every day. Having #1 attendance in the nation certainly doesn’t hurt either.
Miss. State gets people they ain't got no business getting, being so Podunk and all. I hope this ain't one of them.
Yeah its the old white guys fault but then again isnt everything nowadays. Smh
Id like to see the numbers ($) and hours. and mileage of recruiting with Staley vs Frank Martin. I would guarantee Dawn works harder
