WBB Signs Three - Class Ranked 8th Nationally - BigEasyCard - 11-08-2017
Here's the link: http://www.gostanford.com/news/2017/11/6/womens-basketball-haul-includes-hulls-brown.aspx
From the article: "Stanford was the one place where I was not forced to choose between academics and athletics."
Welcome ladies, and Geaux Cardinal!

So how do they decide who gets to wear #14? :)
Re: WBB Signs Three - Class Ranked 8th Nationally - BobK - 11-08-2017
In HS last season Lexie made 14 threes at 47%, Shooting 50% overall
Lacie made 41 three's at 35 % shooting 45% overall.
They each made about 8-9 three's in the 3 travel games I saw them play this past summer. Both can drive extremely well.

More twins! Love it. :)

Those twins sure look alike (duh!).
I bet they could switch numbers and no one in the stands (or the scorer's table) would notice. Hey, maybe that strategy could come into play if one got into foul trouble?
Re: WBB Signs Three - Class Ranked 8th Nationally - BobK - 11-08-2017
I watched them for a full game deciding not to look at the roster to determine how much better one was over the other twin. It was very hard on ability, impossible on looks.Â

Welcome indeed. Can we now focus on getting twin bigs??? I know, I know...easier said than done...

BobK, why do you think Lexie is rated more highly than Lacie (at least by Hoopgurlz)? Lexie is a 5-star recruit, rated #16 nationally, while Lacie is unranked and a 3-star.
Re: WBB Signs Three - Class Ranked 8th Nationally - BobK - 11-08-2017
Lacie is a 4 star on PN.  Ranked 109.Â
I believe they are both very good prospects. The fact they are twins isn't why Tara wanted them. They are good.
Lexie drives a bit better. Based on my 3 games that's about it. Hope someone asks at the chalk talk as I have to miss the first one.

??? Is that an extraneous "don't" or do you believe that only one is a very good prospect?

Lacie is 6'2" and Lexie is 6'1", according to the bios!Â

Watching Stanford wvb BC. Thanks for the catch. I corrected
Re: WBB Signs Three - Class Ranked 8th Nationally - 81alum - 11-09-2017
I do wonder what the back story is on Brown. Brown committed to Votre Dame in January, but then reopened her recruiting July 17 and committed to Stanford on July 21.Â
Bob, what do you know about her health? She missed her Junior year, and the article says she returned to competitive basketball last summer. How has she been since returning?

Re: WBB Signs Three - Class Ranked 8th Nationally - BobK - 11-09-2017
Brown cleared last June to play. I don't know about her summer play.Â
You know Amihere tore her ACL recently.Â
Re: WBB Signs Three - Class Ranked 8th Nationally - 81alum - 11-09-2017
Ugh, terrible news for Amihere. Yet another prospect who will miss her junior year--which is the worst year to miss as far as recruiting goes.
I know she lists us as a possible destination along with all the elite programs--UConn, Notr e Dame, UCLA, etc. She certainly sounds like the next Chiney that is out there and she looked so good in international competition. I don't get a clue out of the articles about her academics or her level of interest in Stanford, though having a couple of her teammates here probably helps.Â

Celeste Taylor and Ramani Parker also list an interest in Stanford. Know anything about them?
Re: WBB Signs Three - Class Ranked 8th Nationally - BobK - 11-09-2017
Amihere and Parker very much on our radar. I don't know of Taylor.
