Really crossing my fingers for Webb. She can play the 4 or even the 5, so James wouldn't be such a big need. Plus having one big name on board could generate momentum for the weekend.

really good thread, chockfull of info
thanks

I don't want to get excited bc it could just be a timing thing but of her last 10 people she is following on twitter....the names Sydney Moss, Vicky McIntyre, Chandler Cooper, Jaterra Bonds, and Jana Magette ..... good omen I am hoping.

She picked Vandy.

EastTNG8TR · 10-05-2012, 11:42 AM

Just saw...really wanted her too. Ronni Williams is our other chance at an elite forward. Not sure if I like our chances with her though. Also been trying to see if we are still in it for Ivey Slaughter.

bossman · 10-05-2012, 05:58 PM

Ivey Slaughter has narrowed her choices down to FSU, UGA, and South Carolina.

EastTNG8TR · 10-05-2012, 07:01 PM

Williams is our best chance at an elite forward then. This weekend Adrienne Motley and Rebekah Dahlman will be on officials to UF. Kai James and Ronni Williams are still suppose to visit at some point... I am assuming for the South Carolina weekend. Motley and Dahlman would shore up the guard slots.at UF for a few years with Cassie Peoples eligible next year as well. An elite forward could be the last missing piece so I am hoping we can pull Williams somehow or that we have someone else on the radar I am not aware of. An elite center like James would be great but at least we have McIntyre for 2 years backed by Dimaite.

bossman · 10-05-2012, 07:17 PM

Agree. I could be wrong but im pretty sure Williams is here this weekend. She tweeted she was on her way to her last official visit and i dont think she has visited UF yet. Thats a lot of talent on campus this weekend with 3 top 30 players.

EastTNG8TR · 10-05-2012, 08:09 PM

We have room for four, though I think we have a guard that will transfer out if we were to get Motley and Dahlman. Williams may be here too...I can only confirm the other two. I just hope the wanting to play with McCaskill is an internet theory.

G2MGA · 10-05-2012, 08:33 PM

6'5 Rhamat Alhassan (c/o 2014) from MD will be here this weekend as well on an unofficial visit. ESPN has her as the #5 post in that class.

EastTNG8TR · 10-06-2012, 04:05 AM

I saw a clip of Alhassan on youtube....very raw but HUGE upside. A long ways to go for the 14 class but she would be a great pick up. Dahlman has a Go Gators on her FB page, for what it is worth.

**Juggernautz** · 10-06-2012, 04:33 AM

Keep up the good work all!

G2MGA · 10-07-2012, 12:34 AM

The team tweeted some pics from the game with Ronni Williams.

Also here on an unofficial is Jonell Williams (unrelated), a 6'2 post from Palatka who is possibly the top in-state recruit in the c/o 2015. She is the daughter of former Gator RB John L. Williams. Who knows, but she might be a good candidate for an early commitment.

bossman · 10-07-2012, 02:09 PM

Adrienne Motley has committed to Miami.

Tyree02 · 10-08-2012, 07:20 AM

Looks like you guys lead for her. She is actually from Florida l, but moved to Georgia and is attending Crisp County High School.

The Ronni situation is no Internet gossip. Her and Sydnei said that they wanted to play in college together. Did look like Ronni really enjoyed her visit to Florida a lot though, so at this point IDK. Many speculate (Brandon Clay, Keil Moore, etc.) that she is going to end up at Georgia with McCaskill (whom everyone including me, just knew that she was headed for FSU). The longer Ronni waits the better it is for other schools to make up ground and I think Florida is still in it..

bossman · 10-08-2012, 01:33 PM

I dont think neither verbally said they wanted to play together in college, I think the fact that they are really good friends and were being recruited as a package deal by two schools, many believed (including me) they would want to play together in college. If they were 100% sure they wanted to play together she probably would have committed when McCaskill committed and neither would have any purpose to visit any other schools besides the ones that were recruiting both. The fact that she is waiting a whole month to make a decision, shows that she likely isnt sure where she wants to play as of yet...With all that said, I still think she ends up at UGA. She tweeted positve things after the UGA, FSU, and UF visits and seemed to have a great time at all 3.

EastTNG8TR · 10-08-2012, 06:40 PM

I do find it odd that they wouldn't just commit together if they were going to the same place. She very well may end up at UGA, but UF actually makes more sense than either FSU or UGA if you look at the forwards on the rosters. I believe January Miller also played some AAU ball with Williams, but I could be wrong. Let's hope her dad has a little bit of input for UF. I have to believe she was always the top recruit in this class. She would be an instant starter replacing Jennifer George, who is the only senior this year. If we get no one else, I hope we can somehow pull her. Kai James is probably number 2 on the overall board, but it seems much harder to get a read on where she wants to go. Dahlman would be a great pickup too, but we are more settled at guard at the moment so she is just a wonderful bonus if we get her. She apparently is the all time leading scorer in Minnesota, btw, and on pace to elipse 5,000 career points. That seems crazy to me.

G2MGA · 10-08-2012, 08:44 PM

Erica Young committed to Kansas State.

Tyree02 · 10-09-2012, 05:25 PM

Kai is headed to FSU and is supposedly announcing on Nov 1

Looks like Rebekah is having a hard time deciding as she enjoyed all of visits. According to the article a decision should be made within the next week or so.

*Shayla Cooper and Faith Woodard (FL) both committed to Georgetown over the weekend btw.
