As the basketball world still turns

NCAA transfers everywhere:

Three sophomores have left Missouri: Maggie Flynn, Tori Niemann and Paige Spietz.

Washington sophomore Ashley Moore is leaving.

Michala Johnson is transferring from UConn.

Coaching changes:

The long-rumored departure of Cynthia Cooper-Dyke from UNCW is indeed true: she's the new coach at Texas Southern.

Karen Aston has named her coaching staff at Texas: Travis Mays, Jalie Mitchell and Angela Ortega.

High school:

Tomorrow opens the spring National Letter of Intent period. A couple on the 2012 top 100 still have to make that choice, but it's mostly the unranked players making decisions now.

Not to be upstaged by the lame-as-hell-for-women's-sports LA Times, Cleveland.com has their own Nirra Fields story.

Pro:

Tough break for Penny Taylor, Australia and the Phoenix Mercury, as the forward has torn her ACL and will miss the WNBA season and the Olympics.

Understatement of the season:

Kim Mulkey and the Baylor staff should have been more careful in their recruiting efforts.
