@gymcademic Being the only high-profile elite on a team is a difficult fit. I admire her for only speaking about her own feelings, and not directly placing blame on her teammates. I wish another elite who was in a similar situation would have taken the same road.
@NCAAGymTea@SATXDad2025 Aaliyah is now committed to Auburn so she will get to stay with one of the coaches she originally committed to. I love this for her and Auburn!
@justsomegymfan It always has been. It’s basically an extra chance at getting a qualifying score for those who need it and typically not full of big names and would not fill in arena.
Anyone else not even excited about ‘28 recruiting? We know all of the top recruits are gonna go to Florida, LSU, Oklahoma- basically all the teams with amazing athletes sitting on the bench instead of where they can compete and be a part of building up a other teams. #NCAAGYM
@alysbun Since I’ve become a more dedicated NCAA fan, I cringe at all of the separated legs, bent knees, wobbles, and bad landings in Elite. In NCAA that’s a bad routine, but in elite, It’s “beautiful” as long as they are chucking hard skills.
@JamieBonkiewicz So stupid that everyone visiting is raving about every little thing that we take for granted and saying they don’t want to go back home and are so much happier here? So thankful for the reminder of what a great country we live in. Stop looking for things to be unhappy about.
@gymcademic Also, I think the addition of Joscelyn is a wild card. Training under her elite coaches means they will train her with an elite eye. I think she was improving on form and execution at Ark, and that might regress. ie that Mustafina was all for elite and not helping anyone in NCAA.
@dawseykins Most recruits have a decent idea of their top choice when they go on any visits. Some of them are even 99% sure. But it’s smart to check out other places and trust me, the coaches knew the odds of her going to Ga, but probably welcomed the chance to try to sell their schools.
@alysbun Attention I guess, which is fine-to each their own. But I thought it was going to at least be something fun or creative instead of just… telling us. Seems like that could’ve been done with less buildup.
@pyatargaryen I believe Dulcy, Reese, Lavi and Jayla have all been injured and Skye just wrapped up NCAA so might not be ready. Might not fit into Leanne's med school, bowtique, coffee business, charity foundation, book writing, real estate career schedule?
