I'm guessing she is done at this point unless someone else leaves. I believe there are only 14 scholarships, so not sure what that means. Maybe Ojala is moving on?

Will be good to have some size and rebounding acumen. Great to see Coach Burke and staff seen they needed to add some size in the frontcourt to content with the other top teams with their size and athleticism. Really believe we have to have a more balanced offensive game where we can have good offensive flow down low and can rebound on both ends. Go Bulls!!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we can get proficient on the inside game and get our rebounding to be close to even with MAC teams, her mid-range game with flourish and if she misses we will have a much better chance at getting offensive rebounds. We will also have 3 good ballhandlers in Lopez, Freshman Rowe and transfer Cornfield. Could be a really tough team. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

D1 limits are 15 for women’s basketball. If all of the roster and coaching movement is done, this is a massive win for Burke and she absolutely proved me wrong. Portal is still open for about a month, but so much happens early on. Retaining the MAC FOTY and the conference’s top scorer (who I have to think has a degree by now, meaning transfer without sitting out is a possibility) is also huge. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NC_UBfan Posted April 2 Share Posted April 2 Looks like the work is still not done a offer announced to Jamisyn Heaton 5' 10 So F from College of Southern. Undersized for what I'm hoping they bring in for front court help but her stats look solid started 30 of 33 games 12.6ppg 6.3 rpg FT 71% 3pt 28%. Guess this means there is a open scholarship I wonder who left? The official NLI dates are April 17- May15 with 886 in the portal and many thousands more graduating HS I'm hoping Burke and staff can sign one more 6'2+ player🤘 https://x.com/HeatonJamisyn/status/1774988407523131663?s=20 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The other 2 maybe not as much since freshman and transfers are coming in at their positions. That opens things up a bit. in other news, Syracuse women is losing one of their solid freshman to the portal too. Nobody is above the portal.

For someone like Hattie, I would think it has more to do with wanting to be re-recruited and see what your market is rather than unhappiness.

NC_UBfan Posted April 4 Share Posted April 4 (edited) Can only hope Ogden reconsiders and stays with the team that is if she has a choice in the matter. I thought she elevated her play especially in the conference tournament. The competition for playing time between her and Hartman would have made them both better. Wango played well defensively when she got on the court but at the guard position she is behind very talented guards in Lopez,KLW, Watson,cornfield and two incoming freshmen gurads Take was injured most of the year hope she redshirt so she has 4yrs eligibility where ever she goes. We need front court help really bad if indeed Ogden is leaving. Another result of losing Ogden is experienced 3pt shooting. None of the existing guards other than Watson shoots the 3 well, incoming freshman Daly from what I read was above average shooter in HS. Hoping Burke and staff can pull together another winning roster🤘 Edited April 4 by NC_UBfan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DooleyBull06 Posted April 4 Share Posted April 4 (edited) While it’s surprising that this player enter the portal or that player…Coach Burke has seemingly become a pro at navigating the portal. She has made over the roster what 3 times in the two years she’s been here? How she can navigate the portal is something that will make her an attractive candidate for a bigger school.

To your point I guess every year is a rebuild year in this new era and if you can't navigate the portal then your tenure will be short...

Very true, she is able to find some very talented people for sure. Paige Kohler, from last year's recruiting class that completely bailed out, is a legitimate PG star at BG, so BB was right about her for sure.
