With Shaq being in Atlanta a bunch for his stints on TNT for the NBA broadcasts, would that be a bonus for us in trying to recruit her? Obviously I have no idea how close they are, but I would hope that would add to her comfort level if she chose to play for us. Plus I would love to see Shaq sitting curtsied for the games.

LSU won a Natty this year. Excellent talent to play with her. Other than Shaq in Florida & Atlanta, most of her family is in Texas or La.

Or it could be excellent talent to play BEHIND. Might see more minutes sooner with us. Besides I would much rather play for Nell than that witch Kim Mulkey. As a parent I wouldn't want my daughter playing for her after some of the things she said and did at Baylor. Of course that is just my opinion.

There has to be a story here. My guesses are all over the place with this timing.
Not sure a lack of playing time & the over abundance of guards on the roster with 3 more added for next year, isn’t most of the reason. The timing? Who knows, because she was mopping up at the end of an almost 80 point blowout?

Played in 5 games, averaging 5.6 minutes is 28 total min. if my math is correct. I remember her playing well in the Furman game last season.

I agree, but the timing of going portal now means she will almost certainly not play much, if any, basketball this year. I cannot see a P6 team picking her up right before classes start. So she is using her RS year to sit out the season. That is why I think there is more to the story. Her 2022 playing time and stats have been known for a while.
