LSU fans were hyped on the attempt by Flau'Jae Johnson's mother, Kia Brooks, to recruit South Carolina transfer MiLaysia Fulwiley to Baton Rouge. Brooks, who also serves as Flau'Jae Johnson's manager, reacted to Fulwiley's post on Facebook in which she expressed her gratitude to her former school, South Carolina, and the fans who supported her in the past two seasons.

Then, the 5-foot-10 guard out of Columbia, South Carolina, announced her intention to enter the transfer portal less than two weeks after the Gamecocks' 23-point loss to UConn in the national final.

Hours later, Brooks gave a heartfelt post that expressed her support for Fulwiley in all her future endeavors and her indirect invite to join the LSU Lady Tigers team and team up with her daughter in the 2025-26 season.
