LSU's Sa’Myah Smith To Enter The Transfer Portal

I'm shocked, thought she was really going to shine next year.

She wants more money. College sports are going to have to start thinking like professional sports. If players can leave at any time maybe teams should be able to trade players or protect what they have.

Well if there is one coach/program I’m not worried about, this is the one. Kim will address her needs.

Sa'Byah

This one makes no sense. She was really developing and could play her natural Forward position.

I think she be missed

Thanks for your years here as a Tiger....wish you well wherever life takes you.

Best of luck in the future, Smith….and thanks for being a Tiger!

No breast

She is a starter now and she will end up a reserve after she transfers.

She would be a stud if we can pull in a legit center. Hate to see her go but she needs to be where she can strive. Look at HVL….

She is a fast forward playing center which works vs lower rated team but vs the Top 5 USCe, Tx, UCLa who have true centers she played hard but couldn’t control the Center. The team needs a lot of help stated it numerous time throughout the year can’t play 3 vs 5 and run out of gas in the 4th quarter. Need at least 7 player rotation.

She had just improved coming off a bad injury smh, I guess that crying meant something

That team is losing a lot, I hope and believe that KM will do what it takes to bring in more talent. Got to have a true center.

I think there is more to this decision than basketball. Someone else announced her decision to leave too

Queen Mulkey is a winner and one of the best college coach in all of college sports. Read her resume carefully.

I hope they NIL her to stay. This may be a sign Johnson is declaring for the WNBA draft and she does not want to be a part of a rebuild/reload with Morrow leaving for the draft.

Not the first starter to transfer like this (TCU). As they say "follow the money"

Quitter.

Not surprised. This is the mindset our youth has now and the transfer portal makes it easy for them. Stars want to go where they can shine the brightest. And people actually support the idea of letting high schoolers have their own portal.
