I’m surprised Patrick is leaving, but:


Huh? :confused:

Ms. Patrick started all four games of her sophomore year and averaged 11.8 points, 5.5 rebounds and 4.0 assists before the season was shut down. I saw her play at Saddle River Day and thought the matchup with Duke was a solid one, particularly after Coach Lawson came aboard.

Look forward to our Duke colleagues perhaps shedding some light on this one.

Lawson's 1st year. There were bound to be some coach-player mismatches.
 
It shouldn't for a 2022 recruit. Heck, if she could stay on another year, I'd see it as a great learning opportunity since she's spent time at Stanford.

Maybe it's me, but too many athletes are worried about playing right away. Look at Dana Evans at Louisville and where she is now. From averaging 5 min/game as a freshman to now? Sometimes it's worth "Trusting the process", and I'm not talking the Philly 76ers version. 😉
Look at moon ursin from Baylor! She averaged 4 points her first 3 years and was behind great guards but now in her senior year is averaging 11 points per game

Jada Claude was a recruit ranked outside the top 200 who committed to Coach Joanne P. McCallie. I cannot say I am surprised about her transfer, as she does not have the talent to be a contributor on a good ACC team. There were also minor behavioral issues with her during her first year.

As for Jaida Patrick, this was a surprise. As a refresher, here were Patrick's high school recruiting rankings:
  • #23 - All Star Girls Report
  • #38 - Prospects Nation
  • #57 - ESPN/Hoopgurlz
  • #115 - Blue Star Report
Patrick had potential to be a solid contributor on a good Duke team.

But after being on a Zoom call with Coach K(ara) this morning, I am going to trust her vision.

Thanks..... I was about to head to the kitchen and pull out some possibly fermented apple cider. Now I can save it for future use.

I hate to see players leave Duke.... I agree that I thought Patrick had potential for us in the future. Not as surprised about Claude. I wish both players well. (unless they transfer to a school on my most hated list)
 
Is it weird to enter the portal now when you are potentially suppose to be in the NCAAT in a couple weeks? She was ready to move on clearly lol

She won't be the last one either

YES very weird. I don’t know how you can keep playing after announcing that you are transferring. Or that the coach would want you to keep playing.
Yea I mean if Miss St had a losing record and or opted out the rest of the year, I could see the announcement, just weird to do it right now when the season isn't over and the NCAAT selections coming up on Monday. There is no way she plays even if they do get selected. It would be awkward and I don't think the coach would allow it either.

The names to watch are Rickea, Carter, and Matharu. Rickea and Matharu have been disciplined and butting heads with the coaches all year. Carter looks miserable to be honest. M. Taylor legit looks like one of the few who is actually happy and in a good place right now.

Isn't Carter a rising senior? Not saying people don't leave after their junior year but wow.. that would be something.

Roster had 12. Down to 11 now.
Are the GR and SR moving on?

of course this year will be the wild wild west for transfers so NMP will be able to get bodies if she needs them
 
Cooks and Morris are gone already said. So it's down to 9.

I mean she could stay I suppose but she does technically have 2 years left to play given the extra year of eligibility

For Miss St's sake, they really need her to stay, even though this hasn't been a great year overall for her and the team.

I dont think getting the bodies will be the issue, they will obviously IMO go to the portal this offseason to add to the roster but quality and talent level may drop off a bit with the departure of certain athletes.

Kentucky wouldn’t surprise me.
Them and A&M have cashed in on those transfers lately.

I will be interested to see if kids will want to play for Elzy. I’m not very familiar with her though
 
It's hard to imagine Rickea Jackson coming back to MSU. She was a starter from day 1 but Coach Schaefer pulled her from the starting lineup 6 times last year and NMP did it 3 times this year. Her playing time in those 9 games indicates that these non-starts weren't injury related so it appears that there have been some coach-player problems both years. Maybe there's another explanation, but I'm going to be extremely surprised if she stays. All indications are that next year will be a massive rebuilding year and that MSU will be relying quite a bit on the transfer portal.
