We really need that consistent outside shooter. It’s one reason we go on scoring droughts




Well we went from having Williams to having Poa so there is a massive scoring downgrade today.

We already dont have a bench as is

I don’t see the advantage of going to WNBA. They make more from NIL than a WNBA salary. They get more attention playing in college. No one cares about the WNBA.

No reason not to stay for both IMO.

It’s amazing to see the attention they get every game. It is like paparazzi when they do the player introductions pre-game. Everyone wants a shot of Bayou Barbie and her team (because let’s face it- she is the face of the team for all the good and bad that comes with that). It is unlike anything I’ve ever seen except maybe Joey B when he was closing in on the Heisman. How do you give that up before you absolutely have to when it won’t negatively impact your earning power to stay?

Va Tech got upset by UVA. The loss at ND was fine but following it up with this might knock them down a seed line and open it up for us to jump to a 2.

The crowd was amazing today. Flau'jae came to play and she just blew up!

I mostly agree with you--but I have thought about it and now kinda see why leaving isn't a bad idea.

Angel just might be tired of college. All the attention she gets is great and she certainly has branded herself to be worthy of it. But for her, maybe it has come to the point where it is time for a new challenge? I seriously doubt she can go anywhere in BR and be left alone. Honestly, hasn't she done just about all she can do here? Records, rings, NIL out the arse, etc. What else is left?

Goddamn! No shite! Thanks for the enlightenment! You mean we’re not the only team that does that?!?

I was referring to our season-long consistency in falling apart after getting a big lead, which the knowledgeable WBB fans here understood. You’re obviously not among that number so stfu with your dumbass posts. You’re the only one who thinks you’re clever.

I think they are both gone. Angel for the reasons above and her social media star power has eclipsed her playing basketball. She may play in the WNBA or not. Doesn’t matter. She’ll make millions either way.

With HVL it’s a numbers game. Whether we win the NC or not, whether HVL wants to come back or not, Kim WILL get an all-conference or all-American-level playmaking point guard in the portal. She’s had enough of that position lacking and wants another Khayla Pointer or Alexis Morris at quarterback.

So … for the two off-guards? Who do you sit?

HVL? MK Williams? Flau’jae Johnson?

Obviously NONE of those players sit. It’s a numbers game. HVL will be moving on. She’s not returning to be a rotational player.

During the senior recognitions, they mentioned HVL is applying to law school. Did anyone else hear that?

Yep. Her first act once she passes the bar: come after all of the Rantards who have slandered her this year
