Sa'mayh isn't a center either. She is 6'2 and thinly built. She played out of position at the 5 tbh


But she played center, regardless

How will wing replace someone who played the post?

She’s a Texas gal. One would suggest TCU, UT or A&M has a bag for her.

For someone that apparently hates WBB, you sure do post a lot in WBB threads. Did one of the WBB players bang your boyfriend? Yasss Queens!!! #GirlSportSchool

If she entered last weeks no one would care. She had two good games all year and people are freaking out. She probably got offers for money after teams saw her play in the tournament and someone will over pay for 6 ppg

I agree. Gordon could fix this with 1 phone call.

TCU is losing a couple forwards and Prince. If she wanted to be closer to home that might be her reasoning. LSU site says she went to Desoto HS but is from Texarkana . Sucks to lose her but wish her the best

Their top 4 scorers will be done in 90 seconds so that'd be a weird move unless they hit multiple portal home runs.

Is this April fools a day early? I hate this. SaMyah worked her way back and has been great since the tourney started. Hope this isn’t true.

If M Williams has her own team she better work on being a better shooter, foot speed and her handle. She was very hot n cold and a lot of turnovers for the 2nd rated player in her class.
The majority of the team needs to be more athletic with foot speed. Past 3 years it’s like watching them shuffle down the floor versus running. Some of that is only having 3 players and getting winded but they are not very fast.

I’d leave to when Gilbert is trying to shoot over that amazon trying to come back yesterday. What a hack coaching job


You can't say that about mulkey.

I doubt MKL is leaving. She is a very good shooter, but lacks some of the explosiveness of FlauJae. She benefits from having a great player who can drive with her.

also if both are leaving, I wouldn’t expect Flaujae to return


Mikaylah should wait and see what FJ does because if she does go pro its undisputedly her team next season. Even if FJ returns MW will more than get hers.

Soft players + hard coach = transfers. Like Saban Kim’s time has come. Her style doesn’t match these players.

No

The players actually love being coached hard. Morrow was crying and saying how mulkey changed her life.

Smith always looked miserable on the floor, but some players just don’t show much joy. Would like to keep her.

I don’t know if that’s what is going on here. My guess is SaMyah had a good tourney and has people in her ear advising she try to leverage that for more money. Unlike the boys side the women are not looking at a big payday when they go pro. They have to try and make their money now.

We need to give her some NIL money
I am pretty sure it must be a money thing. She played great in the tournament but really had a disappointing season coming off her injury. With Mulkey looking to throw money at post players in the portal, perhaps she felt a little left out. Maybe Mulkey should consider letting one of those endless staff that crowd around her go, to free up some money for players.
