ProspectsNation has updated the ISU WBB class ranking to 15th.

https://prospectsnation.com/class-rankings-2018-october-2017

Scary good the recruiting is in the Big 12 right now.

Baylor #1
Texas #2
OU #6
ISU #15
KSU # 18
WVU #21
KU was 23rd, but will likely drop now that Green flipped this week to Tennessee officially.
OSU - not ranked, but does have a couple nice 4 star verbals
Tech/TCU - have only 1 recruit each, but not anyone of note

No Uconn on that list? Did I miss something about them, or was this just a glaring omission on prospectnation.com ?

Yeah, kinda weird but a lot of Gino's classes don't top the rankings. I think they were like #35 a couple classes ago. A top recruit did flip from UCONN to Texas this fall. Texas is rolling in the five stars.

Weird. I would have thought he was the Kentucky of recruiting.

I saw that 5 of the top 6 recruits are headed to either Baylor or Texas. Heckuva push for Texas.

Yeah, Collier flipped, and UConn also lost some 2018 battles to Tennessee and Baylor. I think they are a finalist for #1 Chrystin Williams and #5 Ododa according to Raoul.

Their2017 class was a monster of 4 5 stars, and their unranked recruiting class had Kia Nurse in it from Canada. ESPN and PN still do not include internationals in rankings, who is arguably the best play in WBB now.

Texas recruiting is scary good, but she continues to be old school Conradt focus on posts/size.

IMO, Baylor will still be tops, but this OU class might just bring OU back into the conversation.

UCONN can't have the #1 ranking every year-just every other year and often near the top when not. I would love to see UCONN win with average recruits.

Iowa is way down with 2017 Jinaya Houston from the state ranked at #75 player. For 2018 not seeing any commits on PN. But, I think they have three.

Prospect nation has ISU's recruits ranked #28, # 116, & #136.

OU's are ranked #8, #24, #90 and 2 are not ranked

WV has #55, #94, #107 & 1 unranked

BU has #2, #3, #5, #27 & #85

TX has #1, #6 , #44 & #80

I hope this type of recruiting continues for the Big 12. Competition makes it fun. KST, KU, TCU, OKST & TT need to beef it up or get left behind.

Jinaya Houston has already left the Iowa basketball team.

To be fair, KSU recruiting has been good. Rachel Ranke and Christina Carr out of MN are pretty awesome players.
