Re: Leah Macy Ready To Trim Offer List

Macy just made her third visit to Notre Dame in the last six months. She has been there twice in the last six weeks or so. It's probably also worth noting that she attended a small private catholic school in Louisville her first two years in high school and has transferred to another small private c...

Identity Series

They're doing a series focusing on the players' style off the court a little bit. Nothing earth shattering, but it's worthwhile.

Bella Says She Wants the Extra Year

I stumbled upon a student-made podcast a couple weeks ago with two Vandy guys interviewing Bella LaChance. It was from May of this year. In a portion of their talk about her being a senior, she pointed out that she does have another year of eligibility and said she would like to stay at Vanderbilt a...

Re: Shay Ijiwoye ('24) Gets Vandy Offer

Looks like Shay Ijiwoye could be announcing her decision tomorrow (Sept. 1). I'd be truly shocked if it's Vandy. She's an Arizona girl and friends with our Khamil Pierre, but she doesn't seem to be connected to Vandy in any other way at this point. Plus, we have three offers out to '24 guards right ...

Leah Macy Ready To Trim Offer List

She's a 6'2 power forward who plays at Mercy Academy in Louisville. She's #8 on the Hoopgurlz list for '25. My favorite recruit. She has visited Vandy twice, and I expect us to make whatever number finalist list she comes up with, then it gets tough. I've always felt she would be hard to get away fr...

Re: Recruiting Rundown

ESPN has an article today talking about some of the best college basketball prospects coming out of '23 summer play, and two of them are newly connected to Vandy to some degree. (thanks to vandyfan52 for pointing me to the article): https://www.espn.com/womens-college-basketball/ The players are bot...

Re: Eris Lester Has Vandy on Finalist List

Mike, thanks so much. I really appreciate you keeping up with the team, and especially, letting us know! I am SO ready for this team to have a good season. Regardless of what happened later, these last 3 hires have had something to recommend them. I don't know if everyone knew Pat Summitt recommend...

Re: Eris Lester Has Vandy on Finalist List

Mike, Go Vandy, I asked a former Boston University assistant about that very scenario: What happens when offers exceed scholarships available? He told me that there is a continuous dialogue with players and that essentially whoever accepts the offer first, gets the scholarship. He also said that in...

Re: Eris Lester Has Vandy on Finalist List

Mike, How many open slots do we have for '24? '25? I know with the portal it's impossible to tell, but as far as you know. Thanks Right now, we have two slots open. That's if Bella LaChance and Jordyn Oliver come back for a final season and no one else leaves. We currently have three offers out tha...

Eris Lester Has Vandy on Finalist List

Class of '24, she's a 5'11 guard out of Florida. Will be attending Montverde Academy in Florida for her senior year. Finalists include six SEC schools plus Florida State. This is another one, like Mikayla Blakes last week, that I knew nothing about in terms of Vandy recruiting her. Very similar phys...
