Allison Hightower appreciation thread

why retire her number

Sad to see her go, but thanks for all of the memories Alison!!!

Ditto

im sorry but i remember her for her horrible shooting.but i thought she played well the first half.but what ended up being her percentage for the game.she has always shot poor.i watched the game and i knew when it got to crunch time what would happen.sorry to say that.i bleed purple and gold

If Tasmin Mitchell doesn't have his number retired, there is no way Hightower should.

"Allison Hightower had the want to be a great tiger student athlete player of basketball"




On another note, are there any women basketball players with their number retired?

thank you Allison for carrying this team all the way to the second round of the NCAA for the last two years. You were one of the greatest to ever wear a Lady Tiger uniform. Thank You and best of luck in your future endeavours.

What..............?!
GTFOH!

She shot 6-16 against the ACC champs who are one of the ten best defensive teams in the country. If you take a look at the other starters for BOTH squads, you'll notice that no perimeter players played well in what was a tough, defensive game. Allison shot 45% from the field and over 40% from the 3pt line for the season. For a perimeter player, she's well deserving of being a two-time first team All SEC player.

I think it's hilarious that there are people that think Plaisance is going to come in here next year and all of a sudden be a big contributor................even moreso than an All SEC player who's graduating and averaged almost 20 ppg.

Thanks for the memories Allison. You were one of the best all around players to have ever suited up for the Lady Tigers.
