Hoop tidbits
Though I'm losing subscribers (yes, more than one) because of message boards, I'll continue adapting The HRR in order to provide basketball information to fans of the sport.
As mentioned in an April 2, Tip-in (Members' Section):
Cynthia Cooper told me Van Chancellor asked her if she'd be interested in being one of his assistant coaches at LSU; but, she said "thanks but no thanks". Coop understands how some people may react to her decision; but, she's happy at Prairie View. She believes if it's meant for her to be at LSU (or any other school) then it will happen in its due course. Coop says she wants to finish what she's started at PV.
Pope to Visit UH
Though the University of Houston is not listed among Brooklyn Pope's (6'2, junior forward at Fort Worth Dunbar HS) "list of schools", Pope is expected to make either an unofficial or official visit to head coach Joe Curl and the Houston Lady Cougars. (Yes, there is a difference between "unofficial" and "official" visits). Pope is one of the top players in the Class of 2008.
Keep in mind, Pope is good friends (and an AAU teammate) of Cobilyn Hill who signed to play for UH beginning in the fall of 2007.
Joe Curl to do Better
I don't always agree with Joe Curl's coaching philosophy nor his recruiting; but, I will give him credit for acknowledging he's "dropped the ball" the last two seasons with his basketball program on the court and off the court. Coach Curl told me he's, once again, more directly involved in the recruiting process. Plus, he's going to take on more responsibility marketing his team for the 2007 - 2008 season. (Hopefully, the team will have more than seven players during the 07-08 season.)
One game to mark on your calendar: Duke comes to Houston, Friday, December 28, to play the Lady Cougars.
Neaves in Monarchs' Camp
Late last week, I was told Lauren Neaves, formerly of the Rice Owls, is expected to be invited to participate in the Sacramento Monarchs' 2007 Training Camp.
Correction
I just received word Lauren will participate in the Houston Comets' Training Camp instead of the Monarch's camp.

That's great news about Lauren Neaves! I don't expect her to make it out of training camp because the Comets already have a lot of forwards, but I'm glad she's getting the opportunity to try out with the team.
