Slinker lands another

UNT women's basketball coach Tina Slinker has landed another all-region player for her 2008 recruiting class in Cy-Fair's Mansa El.

The 5-8 point guard helped guide Cy-Fair to the Class 5A state title game last season before her team fell to Rockwall.

El averaged 8.6 points a game while playing alongside Nneka Ogwumike, one of the top 10 recruits in the Class of 2008, according to All-Star Girls Report. Ogwumike was the focal point of Cy-Fair's offense and averaged 20 points a game. Chiney Ogwumike was also an all-region selection for Cy-Fair.

SMU, Louisiana-Lafayette, South Alabama and Tulsa all offered a scholarship to El, who was named All-Region III by the Texas Association of Basketball Coaches. El joins Ryan Green, a TABC all-region forward from Crowley in Slinker's latest recruiting class.

(Well, we did beat out some decent schools for this young lady.)

Appears to be a solid recruit. Cy-Fair is a pre-season national top 30 pick. I guess we can dream about getting her teammate Nneka who is 6'2" 175 and a five star recruit and as stated above a top 10 national recruit.

still seems odd that RV would let Slinker take commits even though she is in a do or be gone year. Lord i hope we do not have another contract extension. What has Slinker done to deserve an extension? Oh yeah 2 NIT blow-out losses.

      Mensah Getting $8 Million NIL Deal

      Some of you think these professional athletes have to go to classes?

      Mensah Getting $8 Million NIL Deal

      You got it dumbass. Seriously, let’s look at the two situations without inserting race since you felt the need. Mensah is a RS Freshmen that entered the portal stating his price. He didn’t get a degree from Tulane and probably cleared out some basics while there. Mensah may be a great student and may live up to his last name, but his academic success was never mentioned just that he was entering the portal and here is his price Morris was at North Texas as a student that had already earned his degree, the reason he missed spring practice, and a dollar amount was never mentioned regarding his transfer/entering the portal. You chose to read it as a racial observation, not me. You were looking for something that wasn’t there nor considered when I made my comment. I was just adding in to another poster’s comments. Stupid financial decisions are not the result of race but thanks for. Inferring that. Watch the “30 for 30” episode titled “Broke” and it will reveal that it happens to all races. Thanks for being who you are though. I would be shocked if you replied differently.

      Portal players leaving

      I think the fact that he's playing in the bowl game shows 1) he just wants to play and 2) it just shows more of the drive and commitment that's gotten him to where he his. I'm not gonna' fault him for leaving if they aren't rewarding him with a scholarship and especially if it looks like he isn't going to be in the main rotation next year. That feels like "thanks for bailing us out, now go sit down."

      Too many "player-whisperers" these days telling kids what they should do next in their career. I'd like to see more data about players that left a program for NIL/more playing time on what the return on their investment was. If they had a do-over would they make different decisions or was it really the right move? Do players that change schools every year really have a loyalty to any of them when their playing days are over?
