By all accounts, she is very good. Yet from all I have seen, she was not pursued heavily by the "power" schools. Not even by the close ones like ND, OhSt, Purdue or Mich. I don't understand why, but if anyone has an explanation I'd be interested to know.
Very good catch for Xavier.

Tierra is a great player. Unfortunately, she had an ACL injury her freshman yr. She came back in sophmore yr, came back very strong in jr yr. Helped take Notre Dame to OH semi-finals 3 yrs in a row.
According to The Blade article, she did have offers from several BIGWhatever schools-OH St, etc. [Since OH St is taking all our(Toledo's) players from Rogers she would have known people.(LOL)]
She was scoring avg 16 pts, 5 rebs, 3 steals, and can't remember #assists.

Three-star, but was invited to USA BB U17 tryouts, and was being recruited by Baylor & Tenn, among others. Apparently a shooting guard with a good 3PT %.

St. Mary's High girls basketball player MaAne' Mosley orally committed yesterday to Cal, she confirmed this afternoon.
"My top two choices were either Cal or Stanford. I wanted to go into law, and I felt they had very strong law programs," said the 5-foot-11 wing. "I felt Cal had real caring there, so I felt that would be a good home for me.
Two of her high school teammates, Gabby Green and Mikayla Cowling, signed with Cal in November. |

Funny how they wrote "orally" committed...maybe they assigned a non-fan to write it up....LOL

I think oral is the better term. The more common term is verbal, but that doesn't make much sense. Verbal means with words, which could be spoke, or written. An LOI is a verbal contract. Oral indicates that it isn't an LOI.

This should be pretty up to date now with 280 verbals. Hard time of the year to keep up with the commitments because there are so many but give me a message if I have some missing.

Michigan's addition of Hallie Thome (ASGR #78 as of October) fills all of their scholarship spots. KBA may end up with a higher ranked class than 2014.

And Olson (Hoopgurlz) has Lambert 4th. Of course I view his rating with more skepticism than any of the other services/websites (Prospects Nation, BlueStar, ASGR, FullCourt). For example, while the other services misjudged Kayla McBride but at least respected her ability (20th by Hoopgurlz and BlueStar, 24th by ASGR), Dan Olson (Collegiate Girls Basketball Report, and now in charge of Hoopgurlz) ranked her 68th!! At least he's not afraid to differ from the other rankings!
By the way, has anyone ever heard of this ranking site?
http://www.d1spects.com/national-recruiting-news/2015-d1spects-power-50-girls-basketball-rankings
For what it's worth, I DO believe that Lambert is very good and considering the need, this is VERY good news for Duke fans.

Never heard of them but for me that is not surprising. Cooper number one; I wonder what they see that everyone else doesn't. The rest of the rankings are fairly consistent with other sites not that it is a proof of legitimacy.

Coach Jimmy Dykes received two commitments this week for the University of Arkansas! Jordan Danberry, a top 50 prospect from Conway, and Keiryn Swenson, a 6'2 forward from Kansas.
@ASGR1995 Jordan Danberry from Conway High School, Conway, AR committed to the University of Arkansas.
Swenson will also throw javelin, which was what she was initially committed to do at the University of Tulsa. She also received offer from Wichita State to play volleyball, so sounds like she is a tremendous athlete.

NC State has had a recent wave of commits, including for the Class of 2015.
Bret McCormick @ASGR1995 North Carolina State receives 2015 verbal commit from Rydeiah DD Rogers 6-1 PF Myers Park HS NC. Rogers played AAU for Carolina Flames.
The Wolfpacker @TheWolfpacker NC State women's basketball has landed Raleigh Broughton senior point guard Kaila Ealey for the class of 2015.
For the Class of 2016, we have a commitment from Lucky Rudd.
For the Class of 2017: Kai Crutchfield (Millbrook) commits to the Pack! She's ranked #20 nationally by All-Star Girls Report.
And then we have the Class of 2019: Jada Peebles.
What's notable about these players is that they are all from North Carolina, where the previous coach was unable to make inroads.
All in all, our Class of 2015 looks like this: Camille Anderson (Georgia); Amber Richardson, DD Rogers, and Kaila Ealey -- the last three from North Carolina.

This is awesome news. Jimmy and his staff worked very hard to secure Danberry's commitment this summer.
