They've added two girls

Lemyah Hylton - 5'11 guard (Miami) - 2.6 ppg

Kaitlyn Duhon - 5'10 guard (Auburn) - 7.3 ppg and 2.9 rebounds in 8 non conference games before injury

But we've lost 5 to the portal

Portal closes in 10 days… we have 8 girls on the roster! We return about 18 points and 2 assists from the last place team in the conference… either Joni's an awful lazy recruiter or women don't want to play for her and our program given that she's on the hot seat and she's shown no progress or promise or sense of building an average competitive roster

She's coached 3 seasons at Texas A&M, throughout these seasons she's lost 14 girls to the portal… Including every single recruit she's signed here out of high school but one, and that one girl has played about 50 minutes over 2 years.

Trying to look at the brighter side

8 Days left to pick over the portal.

Too bad my daughter graduated last year. She saw reserve minutes in high school. Might have been an option for a 6th "man".

On3's Team Transfer Portal Index utilizes the On3 (P)erformance score to measure a team's production during the transfer process, compared relative against its roster and not a comparison against other schools. This proprietary algorithm determines if a school has improved its overall team talent, stayed the same, or declined in talent during the transfer window.


One small difference: tu is declining in talent off of a final four run, whereas A&M is experiencing the same level of decline off of a last place conference finish.

Translation: tu may be fighting to get to the Elite 8 next year, while we're fighting to win a game.

Proprietary algorithm means "we are special in our own eyes."

Saw Coach Taylor at the Bonfire Memorial Saturday morning with a recruit and their family. So I know she must be doing some recruiting.
Let's go ski-man!

As frustrating as the recruiting of this staff can be…it's very good bull that Joni was taking them out to the Bonfire Memorial

Why is it good?

Let's face it - the program is dead.

When I would heard the coach on radio last season it sounded like she was blaming the players for the losses Never seemed to take responsibility for the losses due to coaching. Little social media presence. If recruits saw the coaches comments I doubt they would want to play here. There was very little team play. Often one player ran down the court and shot. There would be long runs of scoring y the opponents and no time out called. Sad.

Early on in the season they asked about the high turnover rate and she said well we don't have a true point guard so it makes it hard… like that's not her job to recruit a point guard lol

At the end of the portal season we still have what? Five spots to fill? How much NIL money is it going to take to even get 5 halfway decent basketball athletes to fill those spots? It looks like we are fishing in a very shallow pond from here on in.

5-8 more spots… we really need depth to endure the SEC grind, but also does anyone want to play for us. You're right, everyone seems to be finding spots and finalizing their rosters while we're at 7 girls

They would have to offer 8 one year deals for $500,000 to $1,000,000 each to take up the roster spots with enough talent to compete. But now you are talking buy out contracts kind of money at the end of the year. So the decision to keep throwing good money after bad or settle up and move on.

I think there are 12 scholarships in women's gymnastics. And you can offer partial scholarships for larger squad. Might be time to think about transitioning

Who wants to play for a coach and coaching team that has not produced results. As everyone notes roster is weak. Will not survive a season. Any single injury will result in someone from the Corp stepping up. Wish the big forces would start putting pressure on the Athletic Director to review contracts and look for new blood on the coaching staff.

Yeah it's pretty telling (I mean what coach would want to come coach for this program) but Joni just refuses to make changes to staff. She's just burning this program to the ground. She's collecting a paycheck then will just move on to another job that's handed to her next March. Everyone who comes here runs away from Joni Taylor, how can we blame them.

Bidg forces? Like who, I think it's pretty clear that nobody really cares about wbb. Or anyone that controls the money

If we complain enough here someone in the administration will get annoyed

One time I shared a tiktok on here and that app shows who viewed a video you shared and two very important people in the Athletics administration viewed it lol

Aggies add Liberty's Pien Steenbergen. She is a 6'1" guard that can knock down the 3. That is a role that we missed quite a bit last season. Good piece for our puzzle.
